I wasn't sure if I'd like this book or not but once I sat down to read it I didn't stop until I was on page 138! It was a great romance story in my opinion, but it was a little irking at times. I wanted to slap Turner for most of the book as I suppose we were supposed to want to.

I cried and cried near the end of the book. I wasn't expecting such a heart-wrenching twist in the plot and it really hit me. It had a good ending that I am thankful for and wasn't quite the traditional: Girl and boy like each other, man is too head strong, girl chases after, guy sees how amazing she is and falls in love with her, they get married, the end. It was close but different and that was pleasing to me. I have a feeling this would make a really good movie, one I would definitely go see in theaters!

One thing that did bother me a tad bit was how the heroine always seemed to be less than enough. She was never pretty, just pleasant. Things like that bothered me. I felt she needed something other than her wit, like that she was an excellent horseback rider. Just SOMETHING so she wasn't just your typical smart-but-blah girlee. Plus she always felt that way so she would let people just walk all over her and it was a bit disheartening after a while.
