Review: A good premise that fell short
Rating: 2 out of 5

I am not quite sure what to say about this book.  First, I didn't like it mainly because it felt like the author was trying to hard.  I lost interest in the story about 20 percent into the book.  Ethan never gave a legitimate reason for doing what he did or for the way he did it.  I think Ebony was justified in her anger and actions, but she annoyed me to no end.  Especially the drama surrounding a bet that she could have simply refused to honor.  I am very disappointed because the premise was so good.  The author tried very hard to write in a kind of Jane Austen style and just didn't quite get there.  That being said, I would still be willing to give her books a chance.
