My Rating: ❤❤❤GOOD: The characteristics of a 3 heart book include: interesting characters, a decent storyline, and unique story elements; there was something about the story that I didn't completely connect with; the book is a solid read. I would recommend it to a friend.My Thoughts:Overall, I liked the story very much. I liked the setup, the pace, and most of the characters. I wish that David and Laura's story was available, but I have yet to find it. A lot of details were mentioned in this story that were most likely established in their story so the reader had to fumble a bit to understand about the Telkhine's and some of the events that happened in the past. I liked Max and how determined he was to win Evie's affection and love. He was steadfast and ever-present and never wavered in his feelings for her. Evie on the other hand is what kept the book from being a 4❤ read for me. I understood her reticence about her relationship with Max but she kept vacillated between wanting him and keeping him at a distance. This went on for about three quarters of the book and it irritated me. She wanted physical pleasure with him but she would push him back the minute he talked about any future between them. This was after he had proved his love for her many...many...many times over. I did appreciate the end of the story when Evie finally made her decision about Max and gained some resolution about her past.
