I couldn't wait to get my hands on Ramon and he was so worth it. He was every bit of cantankerous, difficult and amusing I thought he would be and Marcy was a perfect complement to him. I think I liked him best of all the Barboza brothers.One reviewer couldn't understand how a smart guy like Ramon could botch the proposal so badly, but I thought the proposal was so authentically Ramon. He doesn't do hearts and flowers, but had clearly thought it through, in his own way. The same reviewer was also critical of the brothers' expression of their emotions in the book. Not all cultures expect men to be stoic in the face of emotional turmoil and the brothers faced significant emotional turmoil in this book. I thought their tears were appropriate to their situations and personalities. I love this family and was sorry to see their story end.
