Review: Well, this book was a page turner. I had a hard time putting it down. I loved the plot so much! It was interesting, but I do have to agree with another reviewer that there wasn't a whole lot of character developement, and that was very disappointing. Why was Mac so bitter to her? What events in his life led up to that? When did Linnet ever mourn her parents? I really liked Linnet, but her love for Devon seemed totally...naive. One minute she was angry at him, the next minute they are dancing like nothing happened, everything forgotten. He took advantage of her in a major way and she went back to him without a valid explaination or heartfelt, genuinely feeling apology. I didn't like him. At all. He only claims he loves her after he finds out she had his baby and even then it's, "all right, I'll marry you." I don't believe he was angry because she was beautiful when he thought she was ugly when he rescued her. You aren't mean to someone like he was to her for a reason that...stupid. (If you read it, you will know what I mean, but I urge you no to.) Why did he leave her like he did after a night of passion? How could he still think she was after other men, even after all she did to avoid a man that every woman wants, his cousin Cord. His jealousy of Cord was annoying and took was too much control of him. He was way too angry and blind for my taste. He is my least favotire hero of all time. Sorry to give such a low review, but I know Jude can do better, especially with such a good setting and plot.
