It was decent, with some pretty steamy scenes, but some things just stopped me from fully enjoying it.

For one, they fell in love way too quickly, and I really didn't know why they fell in love most of the time. And then there was the whole sappiness... I don't know, maybe I just wasn't in the mood for "Oh, your loved saved me", "without your love I...", "I can't live without you", "you're like the air I breath".

Don't get me wrong, I love romances, and they're usually with those sentiments, but I don't know... here it was just too much. It made me snort and grimace at times.

Also, in this edition, the "too" and "to" was switched. It drove me crazy!

I was really swept up in Julia's story and her struggle to find herself again after years in an abusive marriage. While I appreciated Morgan as a hero, his total focus on his c**k kept me from believing he fell in love so hard (forgive the pun), so fast.

I liked it well enough but I felt it lacking in story line which was replaced by erotica.

Predictable, but an over all decent book. Either way it was a quick, and pleasant way to spend a few hours. Very easy to read. :)
