I have to agree with another reviewer that the language of the main character Gemma Goodwin is atrocious.  I was ready to give up on the book in the first chapter because I also thought it was ridiculous to think that adults spoke like this, at least somewhat educated adults.  However, I stuck it out a few more chapters and found that I really enjoyed the book.  It was a fun and quick read and again much easier to read when Gemma's character uses a different tone as she pretends to be Abbey.  I have to chalk up the terrible dialogue in the beginning to British slang.The characters felt very stiff at first, but the author did a lovely job of developing each one in a way that really made them more dimensional and endearing.  I really liked all the characters with the exception of the bad guys.  And overall, Gemma really ended up being a great heroine - she was caring, thoughtful, kind, brave and quick on her feet.  I would recommend this as a fun read with a sweet romance element to it that is definitely worth the $0.99 I paid.
