I am going by what the stars actually say...it was OK. I can't say I truly liked it to bump it to 3 stars, but I do have to say that it was very well written. Ms. Loveless is a very good author. The story just didn't sit with me and annoyed me more than I enjoyed it. This was not a true romance story even though the last line of the blurb leads you to think it is. Yes, this is a story about Sam and Connor and Kelly and what brings them together, but that doesn't happen until 2/3 through the book. The majority of the book is Connor in jail. I ended up skimming most of those chapters because, yes, that is an important piece of what makes Connor who he is and what helps Sam and Kelly get close, but it could have been a LOT shorter and focused more on the relationship, which after pages of miserable jail, felt very rushed. Also, I had an issue with how Connor and Sam got together. It just didn't resonate with me. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

I had a visceral (not necessarily negative) reaction to much of the early part of this book. Imagine being cornered into a life-or-death situation only to come out on the other side alive but with no memory of what happened and facing the reality that you're still in danger of losing your life in a completely different way. And the system is not good to Connor. Not at all. I found that the second half the book seemed to drag, though, in comparison since it did not possess the intensity that the early book carried with it. Overall, though, this is a thought-provoking read that goes off the beaten path in a number of interesting ways. And it's worth the read. ( )
