Reviews

[Bev Walkling · Rating 4 out of 5]

3.5 stars An easy read for an afternoon or evening. This novel tells the story of two people who carry burdens of self-inflicted guilt who come together and find love. It is part of a series about the McAllister family and I enjoy romance novels that focus on large family groups. There were a few times I wanted to shake the characters, but I have never walked in their shoes. There is a little danger tossed into the story to add to the excitement.

It's a typical lovey dovey story but I enjoyed it. Its a good novel to read over the weekend or vacation.
