Review: Cute but not memorable
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 12 7, 2012
Bought this book because I have had a good experience with NJ Walters before. Normally I see the Ellora's Cave ribbon at the top and move on.This books was cute but not memorable. Started it on one device and finished it on another- only to return and re-read about 60% again before I finally realized that I had actually already finished it. That will teach me to turn off the Kindle sync feature.I didn't find the characters unbelievable or unrelatable as the one-star reviewer did. I enjoy characters who are older than 25 and have minimal sexual experience- not every woman out there sleeps with every date or boyfriend or has a wild period in their early 20's. I like a male lead who realizes that he is ready to settle and he sees something in woman who isnt on the prowl or overtly sexual. Annabelle was worthwhile to him and he was prepared to work to gain her trust and to see herself the way he did.Components of a book are present: beginning, middle, end, conflict and climax, a good editor, and an author who understand how to tell a story. Its not a deep read, or a clean read, or a long read, but it was enjoyable.
