Review: DISAPPOINTING
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 01 19, 2014
I found the characters in this book inconsistent.  For example, Emily is frequently described as honest and innocent.  However, she lies to her grandparents and to her friends.  Emily's lies and manipulation of her mother brings about a pivotal disaster in her relationship with the love of her life, Danny.  Danny is supposed to be fiercely protective of Emily.  However, he exposes her to public ridicule by his openly sexual fondling of her at a beach party.  Finally, Emily's grandfather (Cliff) is fully aware that Danny and Emily is possibly siblings and seems to encourage the romantic feelings they have for each other. Nevertheless, I am rating this book three stars because I really enjoyed the writing style of Ms Francis.
