No chemistry. Unbelievable plot. Hard to believe it was written by same author as prior books.
Skimmed extensively and then just skipped to end. Waste of time. (

Uneven. Some great writing, some rough patches.

Plot plausible but just barely. Characters strong but their attraction uncertain. Unique/novel plot? Yes. (

3.5 stars. It strayed further and further from believability as it went I thought, but it was still a fun read. (

While I enjoyed book 1 and 2 more than this, I still enjoyed it very much. Characters were likable and a fun story line. I am looking forward to the next one in the series. (

Oh, this series!

Rafe's story was all I hoped it would be when he got stuck babysitting the orphans at Juliana's orphanage in the last book. ;) One knew there had to be something lurking behind his love-'em-and-leave-'em ways (his nickname in the war was "the Seducer") and oh, did it tug at my heartstrings to hear what it was. There were some guilty giggles, too--no, it's not amusing that a small child is forgotten by the rest of his large family, yet somehow Ms. Galen's retelling of a few of the situations made me smile. More than once. (Not my fault! Blame her excellent storytelling skills...)

Speaking of amusement, Collette's tendency to spout off random hedgehog facts when she's nervous (more often than not having to do with their mating habits--apparently these are the books she read to help her learn English???) had me out-and-out LOLing so. Many. Times. Add in the drama and danger of spying and (possible) double-crossing and/or double-agenting, and it's pretty much a given that I'm going to love this book. Likable, relatable characters, humor, andespionage? Yes, please!

Ms. Galen definitely piques our interest in her epilogue about what is going on with the scarred and mysterious Jasper--that had better mean that his book in next! In the meantime, I'll get caught up by listening to Ewan's story in an attempt to buy patience...

Rating: 4 stars / A-

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book. (
