I started the book but had to stop when I read some of the bad reviews on the book.  I never regretted picking it up again to continue reading it.As contrary to some reviews, but then to each his own.  I am not to contest with the bad reviews but would like to present why I loved the book.  The author was true to the character she created and presented them as realistically as possible.  Ashleigh, almost a woman at 17 years old, has learned how to take care of herself and without a mother to be her model on how to be a lady she acted as best she thinks she should be.  There were some conflicting decisions on her part but you will have to excuse them as there is a part of her that is still a child.  However, when it came to tougher decisions in her life, she showed how strong she could be and is willing to stand on her own and not rely on somebody else.  She grew up in every turn of the page.If there is anyone to dislike in the book, it would probably be Nicholas.  He has the tendency to be too possessive of Ashleigh with other men around and too neglectful when she is left to his care.  The author though gave a solid background behind the reasons of his mistrustfulness.  What happened to his parents had helped mold him into a person who only trusts himself and does not believe that any woman is worthy of his love and is not capable to love him back.This book was written very well and the author did not just present a love story but how a woman learned to grow up and be resilient to achieve the respect and trust of the man she loves.  I highly recommend this book.
