I could not put this book down!  I read it in two sittings! Being the mother of two young children, this is quite an accomplishment for me.  Needless to say, I'm a little sleep deprived today!In this story we meet Caelie, a very intelligent, beautiful, courageous, young lady starting what she hopes to be a promising career.  We soon learn that her tragic past has left her with some serious self-esteem & trust issues, among other things.  We also meet Wynne, a handsome, harsh and often bratty man that partially holds her future in his hands.  Wynne's past also haunts him in a way that affects his current behavior & happiness (or lack thereof).  The writer switches from present to past throughout the book, as she allows us to experience some of the traumatic events of their childhood.  Both Caelie and Wynne are put into situations that force them to deal with the trauma of their past in order to move on with their future.I don't know if this book is categorized as a romance or not, but it is not your typical love story.  There is love and there is betrayal, but not in a romantic way.  The main characters have very little physical contact at all and really don't explore their relationship in that depth, but it still had all of the excitement, tension, longing & heartbreak of a good romance.  It also deals with some very heavy subjects without feeling heavy.  I very much enjoyed it!Now, for the negative - There was such an extreme amount of editing/writing errors that at times it was aggravatingly distracting.  Extreme amount being about every 4th sentence!  Normally, I have a tendency to edit as I read anyway, so it usually doesn't bother me to find some editing flaws, but there were too many to overlook and at times it really took away from the experience of the story.  I downloaded this as a freebie, but would still be pleased had I paid a buck or so for it.  More, if it weren't for all of the errors, which I feel really brings the value of the book down.
