Review: Decent Enough Story
Rating: 3 out of 5

3.5 Stars. This was a very good story. I had my doubts at first with the heroine being young, which is always a sticking point with me. It didn't help when there were a couple of instances of being in the daughters POV either. But eventually the characters started to grow on me. By the middle of the story, I felt like I was a part of their family and even the community.That said, I did have issues with the heroine towards the end when she was willing to give up all of her hopes and dreams and go crawling back to the hero, begging him to take her back. One of those "something's better than nothing" situations that I always found to be pathetic and desperate.I also, had a problem with the pacing and redundancy at the end. Not to the point of skimming, but very tempted to do just that. It seemed like all the hero could dwell on was his guilt for the past... for chapter after chapter after chapter. I wanted to scream "Just get over it already!" And that is the sole reason for the lower rating from me. Overall, I'm glad I read this book. It had a great cast of characters and okay pacing. I probably wouldn't read it again, but I'd recommend it to those looking for a --somewhat-- light-hearted read.
