Customer Reviews

Okay read- dragged, moved too slowly

This was an okay read- not really noteworthy. It is typical for an author to build suspense before revealing the resolution of the focused conflict, but Harris drew out the storyline far too long. Too much detail on insignificant daily living exploits, redundancy in exploring old feelings and betrayals. The female lead, Caroline, was not a particularly strong character beneath a stoic facade. I didn't feel she was as invested in her son as she should have been. Roman may have been an astute businessman, finding success in acquiring wealth and notoriety, but seemed emotionally stunted and far too interested in acceptance into the social hierarchy that Caroline was born into. He always seemed to need to prove himself, which made him a weak character in this reader's estimation. The plot and storyline had potential, the relationship Roman & Caroline enjoyed before familial obligations tore them apart was sweet. The attraction between them was dynamite! Indeed a tale of potential soul mates- who may not be able to put aside pride and personal agendas to recognize the honest connection between them. Therein lies the suspense....
