Review: Inconsistent character actions
Rating: 2 out of 5

I really thought I would like this book.  Unfortunately, this book fell into what I categorize as the "tell the reader everything rather than describe what is happening" syndrome.  The book starts off right off the bat with the reader being told that the hero loves the heroine.  That's okay, but then, there's nothing provided as to the basis for this love, particularly when the heroine continuously spurns our hero.  Also, the heroine keeps on acting stupidly but the reader is told, no, really, she's really bright and spunky, it's just her past experiences that make her do stupid things....okay, not so much in my opinion.  I would think that her past experiences would make her more cautious and smarter.  Finally, I really hated the back and forth actions between the two main characters that were so out of context with what was happening in the story.  Hero would pursue heroine, catch her and they would be okay, but then, heroine would run again from hero (either physically or emotionally), causing him to pursue her again.  This happened many times in the book and it got really boring really fast.
