    <body><![CDATA[I'm a little sad to say that I'm very disappointed after reading this Cindy Gerard book. Normally I love a good action-packed romance thriller, I really do, but this one didn't impress me.

This one left me kind of cold -- I could understand Sam's motivation, but it got a bit too much of a self pity party for me.<br/><br/>And Abbie's obsession with her brother....it got dull. ]]></body>
