I got this in a giveway, possibly Librarything, but I can't see to find this on my list. In any event, as always, this does not effect my review.
I was so bored for about he first 60 pages I almost gave up, but after that I quite liked it. One point off for the excruciatingly slow start and one point off for ugly=evil. Otherwise a nicely written romance with a very appealing heroine.

This book read like a boy's adventure book with all the secret passages and although fun, for me it distracted a bit from the romance. All in all I liked it, though.
Es sumamente aburrido y no te engancha para nada la historia.
