I was never so disappointed. This novel is far beneath my expectations of a Rose Pressey novel. I bought it because of her reputation and the locale but soon found it disjointed, poorly written, and a style I hated. The writing is choppy (absolutely no flow) with numerous grammar mistakes, misquoted cliches, misused phrases and I actively HATE the titles for each chapter. Although the topic should have been a winner, there was little to suggest the hot sultry passionate Louisiana climes, and if Louisiana natives really talked the way Ms. Pressey's Chloe and Grant did, they both would have had to leave the state. And,for a published writer, Chloe is unlikable and appears really naive or stupid, or both.  Sad to say, this book smacks of being a first draft of a first attempt at writing a novel. I doubt I will read the others in this series if there are any. Somebody...maybe several somebodies...really goofed on this one.
