I realy enjoyed Purgatory. The book that is.I loved the descriptions of the house and the fact that it was being restored to its former glory. I have family from Louisiana and Mississippi and I always like stories set in the area. As some have said I thought the romance between the main characters was a little fast, but I figured they were older, had been married before and had almost grown kids. If they didn't know their own minds by this time, when would they? I preferred the quick love story over the Harlequins my mom used to let me read when I was a young teen. You know the ones. The hero treats the heroine like crap for most of the book and in the last three chapters he suddenly falls in love. Very romantic when you are thirteen, not so much as an adult.Anyway, I digress. I thought the story was great. I loved the characters and definitely the dog!!! I always worry when there is a dog in the story. I have made people tell me if the dog is okay before I read a book or watch a movie with dogs.I almost would have liked a little more of the ghost story, and the author described the room under the house so vividly, I could practically taste the air. Creepy!!!I will definitly read more by this author.
