Kristen James

I found this book to be pretty standard fare for holiday romances. Nothing over the top unique or exciting, but not overly cliched or boring either. I did find there to be a fair number of typos - mostly wrong words like spell check was run on auto-pilot and the first suggestion accepted.

It was a nice read, but the story itself was completely unbelievable IMO. Having said goodbye as teenagers, not having had any contact for six years and both leading a completely different kind of life, he asks her mother to get her back to their hometown so he can tell her he loves her. And within one day she decides she loves him. Sorry, but I 'm not convinced.

Really? Because, you speak to someone on a plane she becomes an almost-victim in a kidnapping scene. I have read other books by Kristen James and they were much better than this! I think that to be such a short book there was entirely too much of something and not enough of LETS GET TO THE POINT! It made it when it got to the actually Point that I did not actually care enough to enjoy it. It was sweet show more and had a lot of potential but would have been a better novel because then the too much of something would have played in to the entire book! show less

I think I have a love/hate relationship with this book. It was a quick read but, there were quite a few things within the book that bothered me. Brother dies, girl (down on her luck) meets lawyer, falls in love with best friend of said brother. It was cute I love Missy and I can relate to her fears but, I think that there were a few things that were just plain eerie in the book .. A good read though.
