I read the first book in this series a year ago and was kind of bored with it. Then I read the first two books in the author’s Chestnut Springs series and LOVED them. So I thought I’d come back to this series while I waited for her next book but for some reason it just didn’t hook me like her other series.

I feel like we got the barest of crumbs for the first 200 pages and I just couldn’t feel their connection. There weren’t many moments of them actually together or building a connection, just a lot of inner dialog and dragged moments. It was also so frustrating how they kept just avoiding their feelings for the other. It was so obvious and you’d think we’re getting somewhere but nope.

I liked the writing style just like her other books and there were some really beautiful quotes in this book. I really wanted to like it but I was just too bored.
