If you thought you were going to settle in for a predictable story when it comes to the latest of the Fitzpatrick siblings, you would be wrong. I have to admit I started off annoyed with Jasmine and her spoilt attitude, in comparison to her siblings. Then I remembered that Jasmine is her own person and I need to see her for her own self. I came to find that she is even more of an original and a trailblazer than those that came before her. I, as a reader, did the pigeon holing that her mother, Charlotte, does throughout her story. We all want what is best for Jasmine, that's the surface of Jasmine. We tend to forget that Jasmine is not as shallow as even she thinks she is. All I can say, without giving away any spoilers, is that you must stay in the story and hold on to the end. The twists and turns that come in the tale are ones that will leave you open mouthed and rereading to make sure you caught it all. I'm not usually surprised by much, but boy I dug my heels in early on and yelled and cheered as the story went by. When I hit the end I wanted more and was left thinking about the overall story for days. That is the sign that Ms. Lower has surpassed herself in her latest book. I just hope I have a couple more to look forward too. I do believe we have a few more siblings unaccounted for...
