Reseñas de la Crítica

“The characters are refreshingly fun and the story is a delightful romp from beginning to end, with the perfect balance of impudence and romance.” ( Publisher’s Weekly)

Drones on and on

I thought I would like this book, because I usually like Virginia Henley, but this book, at times, just droned on and on with no real direction. I mean everything but the kitchen sink was thrown into this book with useless characters and useless subplots. I still had three hours to go and I felt like I’d already listened to two books worth of storyline. By this point I was done and totally bored. If you like a storyline that never seems to end, this is the book for you. I liked the narrator, but sometimes I had a difficult time distinguishing one character from another. It could be because there were so many tertiary characters it was difficult to keep up with so many people. I would not recommend this book.

Good enough story, slow narrator

Good in parts but quite predictable as these types of books are but I found this one a bit slow - along with the narrator. I doubled up on the speed.

Their love

I liked how they met and when they grew up and no longer denied how much they were compatable . They both liked the same things. I loved the nursing that her husband took care of her when she might have died without his constantt care. I also liked the dream she had that confirmed ( to her anyway) that they belonged together.😍😘

nope

the most boring book I have ever tried to read. I'll probably never get one of her books again
