I was hopeful when I started this book, but it quickly grew into disappointment and ended the same way. The ending was abrupt somehow. Tom's character didn't make much sense to me, he came across as very pathetic in many ways. He could be strong minded with his family and confident on the farm, but his level of clumsiness and faux pas with women was very unbelievable alongside it. He was only outdone by the very pathetic Peter who made me want to holler at him for having his mother manipulate him the way she did. The book moved fast, the heroine and her Tom seemed to move into a relationship that only exemplified infatuation not a real friendship as a foundation for their decision to get married. And it ended as abruptly. But good thing. I would have hated to feel that I'd wasted even more time reading this than I did.
