Axia is constantly up to hijinks that more times than not get her into trouble. Jamie is an honorable good hearted man trying to do what is best for his family and falling in love along the way. The family of Jamie and the friends of Axia were also very enjoyable to read about. This was a really good book. I liked the idea of this story much better than the actual book. There's the potential for something good, but the execution is rather off. In true Deveraux style, there's an awkward throwing together of the lead characters, with that whole "I hate you, I love you" thing that is the bread and butter of this author's work. And the series of events from start to finish just don't read like a smooth story. The whole thing feels kind of silly, really. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
