It is interesting because rarely do you see a hero who is as young as this one (the youngest hero I've read about was a good six years younger than Robin). He's not the most confident, but he's a sweetheart who loves his little sister and worries each day that it will be his sister's last. You learn early on that something is wrong with his sister, Anne, and that the young girl is unlikely to ever make it to adulthood. And somehow that endears him to you even more.On the other hand, Emily is much older than most heroines (I have seen some twice her age, but not often). On top of that she's older than Robin, which is not a common theme either. It's rather odd how an age gap that would give few pause if he were the older, especially for the time frame, is so much harder for people to accept when she' she older one.I enjoyed the story and am curious about other books by the author. There were no secondary characters that begged to have their story told, unless someone where to reform a certain friend of Emily's. I'd certainly be interested to see how that story might go.
