Review: A little over the top
Rating: 3 out of 5

SPOILER ALERT***************************************************Everything that could possibly happen to this heroine is thrown into the mix - a trauma related disability, naive and over-protective parents, an understanding aunt, a devoted lover who has secrets,  truly horrible, stereotype of a sister whom the parents haven't "got" after twenty + years of being a manipulative liar - and of course the heroine - fortunately a likable one and her dog, the most engaging character of the lot.Overall, I am ambivalent about this novel. I read it right through and it should have been satisfying, but I just felt there was too much going on. The disgusting sister was waaaaaaaaaaay over the top with her ham-handed approaches to Will. His and the aunt's reasons for not upsetting the wretched woman are unconvincing to say the least.Not a keeper, but okay-ish.
