Adorable teen read.

I cringe when I find out the free download I picked up is a total teen read, complete with teen language and attitude. But I found this novel entertaining. It is a simple, quick read and the main protagonist is a snarky, but likable character. I enjoyed the dynamics between Lilly Price and Sean and Harrison. Halfway through the novel I was even rooting for the villain. But the novel was pretty true to the Mansfield Park novel by Austen, so I knew there was no hope. I felt the reason for Lilly and Sean not being together were weak, but if you just forget about motivations and depth of plot, you can just enjoy the story for what it is. Fun. Clean read for teens.

Oddly enough, Mansfield Park is my least favorite Jane Austen book, but Mansfield Ranch is my favorite of this series so far! I really enjoyed the modern take and interesting characters. I do wish there had been more closure at the end of the book. ( )
