I have to say, this is one of the best $3 I've spent in a while. I got recc's this book by the Bookpusher group talking about it on twitter. The premise was so awesome I had to give it a try. It TOTALLY exceeded my expectation. Ms Davis is a bright star in the self pub world. As many have said, the main characters were outstanding. The female lead is strong, smart, sassy, moral {well, except that one slip}, kind without ever being to-stupid-to-live. The hero is equally as well thought out and interesting. I enjoyed the secondary cast as well.My only complaint and the reason I take off 1/2 a star is the book does have some pacing problems around the 60% to 70% mark. I can't really judge at this point at how bad it was cause I was sitting in a rapidly cooling tub a 2am determined to finish it {I'd refilled the tub at least 4 times}so I might have been really sensitive to anything that bogged the story down. My feeling was the introduction of the other horsemen might have been more graceful {altho I liked them at the end} and as many have mentioned the "misunderstanding" might have gone on too long and wasn't quite as well fleshed out as the rest of the book. I say this only because the rest of the book worked so flawlessly.I agree with many of the reviews that say I've read plenty of traditionally published books that were not nearly as entertaining or polished. If you like Eloisa James' HR I think you'll love this author.I look forward to book 2. I think this is a tough act to follow.
