Summary: It was OK/Not Worthy of the Hype
Comment: This book was a passable western romance. Unlikely coincidences and the heroine prevented this story from being better. I found the frequency of sexual molestation to be too coincidental and not necessary for the poignancy the author was trying to achieve. Further, the heroine was somewhat of a shrew. When she turned away from Matt after his confession, I wanted him to leave her and find somebody worthy of his love. The author was never able to justify the heroine's bad behaviour and redeem her.
One item about the book that I really liked was that the hero was a virgin. Overall, I applaud the author for dealing with a difficult topic (sexual molestation of children), but this book is definitely a grade C.
Rating: 3
Summary: Just OK/Really Annoying Heroine
Comment: I bought this book due to the wonderful reviews it received by other Amazon readers. I find it be unworthy of the praise received. It is merely an average book for several reasons. First, the reasons for the main characters forced marriage was unbelievable. Second, the reason for Ellen's fear of men and being touched was unbelievable. Third, the coincidence of multiple cases of sexual molestation was an awkward plot development that probably shouldn't have been included. Fourth, Ellen was a very annoying and unworthy heroine. She didn't deserve Matt and was never able to redeem herself in my mind. When she turned away from him after his confession, I wish Matt had left her. Not a good thought for a hopeless romance addict. While I applaud the author's efforts for approaching a difficult subject, the novel was definitely lacking in the poignancy I think the author was trying to achieve.
Rating: 5
Summary: Great Read
Comment: I thought this book was well written and heart wrenching. I read it several times and every time I gleaned new nuances from it. I loved this book.
