[Mailee Pyper · Rating 2 out of 5]

I wanted to enjoy this book, and I did enjoy elements of it, but it was just so unbelievable on so many levels. There were some plot holes, some character inconsistencies, and some implausible circumstances. Add to that some very large editing issues occasionally, and there you have it.
