Young, Unexpected Love

Katie Moore has the uncanny ability to write a novel which focuses less on the budding romance between her main characters, instead focusing more on their humanity. At the same time, she keeps the story fresh and interesting, encouraging the reader to turn page after page. Such is the case with HALLS OF TEMPTATION, in which she introduces Lacey and Shepard as they discover true love for the first time. Lacey comes from a wealthy family and has been in boarding schools most of her life. Boredom and a sense of abandonment has caused her to be somewhat of a troublemaker, requiring frequent changes in schools. Unhappy in her new school, she doesn't make many friends. That is, until she meets Shepard a student on the rowing team. Their relationship develops slowly and is a new experience for both women. Outside influences such as Lacey's evil roommate make things very difficult for their pairing. Things get worse when Lacey inadvertently gets in trouble again and her mother gets involved. The struggle of these two young women is endearing. Almost anyone can relate in some way to Lacey or Shepard and their trials and tribulations just to be together. Moore gets better with every book she writes. This reader can't wait for the next one.

Screw the editing...read the book

Do these types of relationships really occur at all girl schools? If so, I've truly missed out on something. This story is about the pros and cons of a rich girl rebelling from parents who don't care whether she's where she's suppose to be or not. Enter Shepherd...the down to earth student who show's Lacey a love and life she can be comfortable with. The second meeting long after college between the two was a tear jerker. But the last chapter knocked my socks off. I like Moore's writing!!!!!
