This is the first book in a LONG time that I’ve given five stars to, but it’s been even longer since I was this engrossed and excited to read a contemporary romance. I’m always on the look out for a book that I can’t put down; I’ve read several recently that captured my attention and entertained, but it’s been years since I stayed up two hours past bedtime reading, then woke up ridiculously early so I could finish a book before going to work. This book did it for me.

The hero is almost too wonderful, but isn’t that why we read romance novels? But he’s clearly not perfect because he makes some truly stupid decisions. And I could relate to the heroine’s angst — the tears, the desire, the frustration, the hope. Gripping.

This is my first Jennifer Peel novel, but it won’t be my last!
