Summary: Expected Much Better
Review: The plot is okay it develops well and moves along but it is predictable. The characters are very poorly drawn -- Southern caricatures with terrible names (Rowell, Cuddy,etc., c'mon). Justin, the thoroughly unlikeable hero is arrogant sees faults in everyone but himself and blames others for all his faults, is so inconsistently drawn you really can't figure him out and the villains aren't even worth getting upset about. The dialogue is really stilted, Cuddy calling Justin "General Lee" passes for witty repartee. And the "love" interests -- are just not believable The men are two dimensional, the women are truly uni-dimensional how could the men be interested and how could the women be interested in the men.
From the reviews I read before I read the book, I expected much better. This was a major disappointment.
