The book was free when I got so I can't be terribly upset and I did like the premise of the story and the beginning was fairly strong, but unfortunately it lost me about halfway through. I did finish the book so it wasn't terrible but it pretty much had every romance cliché imaginable. There was very little character development and everything was pretty much spelled out for the reader, I felt the author had a great opportunity to go somewhere with the whole feng shui deal but just dropped it in preference to the "romance". This story was also a prime example of the, oh dear everything is going too well lets throw in some conflict for the sake of conflict by making the heroine run away without ever actually discussing things with the hero, style. Thankfully this wasn't drawn out but it still made me want to slap the wishy-washy heroine. I could go on but I really don't want to rant or spoil the story for anyone. If you are running out of freebie options read this story, but don't have too high of expectations.
