well..that's interesting. Granted, I'm not actually familiar with most of the authors...or characters. Not really the genre I follow. I do kinda wish similar existed in romance if only to see how other authors do characters.
[I received a copy of this book through NetGalley.]When I requested this novel, I hadn’t realised it was the third instalment in a series; however, it turned out you can read it even without having read the previous ones, since the narrator does summarise well enough what her family is about, and th...

4 stars. 1st in a series. I am definitely interested in reading the rest of the series, though this book could have used an additional eye in editing. Portions could have (should have) been expanded for clarity and better story telling.
