My Review:

This book had a little bit of everything. I really liked the romance plot and I was not sure how I felt after a romance following his wife's death. However that did fit David's personality. The way the author made me feel bad for Dave, then to disliking him, then to feeling bad for him again was done in such a way, that I hardly noticed my feelings were changing. He got what he wanted, but at what cost? I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review from The Book Review Buzz, however all opinions are my own.
