Unfortunately, the synopsis was the best thing about this book. I knew things were going to go badly when the heroine (at the very beginning) dumps her backstory while talking to a cat she is trying to persuade a cat to come out from under her car. That was so awkward I had to make a conscious effort NOT to put down the book right then. Then there was the equally awkward conversation between H/h where we already hear the word “love” as part of her inner dialogue. It just went on from there and sadly the direction was downhill.
Throughout this book the rule seemed to be "tell don’t show". How many times did we have to be told the heroine was irresponsible? It made me dislike her from the beginning and not even care about how she was going to be redeemed. The hero, who should have been awesome based on the synopsis, was uninspiring. (Btw, calling her “Zoe-eyes” was jarring, but maybe that was just me; I also wondered about a guy using the word “fanny” in the 21st century… again that could just be me.)
The “suspense” part of this book was too silly to follow closely and I just skipped over it. I was disappointed cause I like the author, like reading about that part of Texas, and I’d been looking forward to this story. I’m not sure what happened with this book but it really shouldn’t have been published, Lori Wilde has proven that she can write better! I recommend skipping it, even if you’re reading the series.
