This one was okay. It was different in that the heroine was in a wheel chair. I thought the hero fell in love too quickly. Less than a week and seeing her twice and he's telling her brother he loves her and plans to marry her? Maybe I should just put this under the fantasy heading instead of contemporary romance. Then the hero revamped his entire ranch with wheel chair access before he even knew they were going to get together. I mean I could buy that he knew pretty soon but this was too soon. Also, that conversation with the brother was pretty girly. No man I know talks like that, especially with another man he barely knows.

There were some lovely lines where he was telling her he loved her. I just would have prefered they come after a realistic relationship. Especially considering that she was handicapped and there was no way he knew what he was getting into long term in so little time. Regardless if the author told me "he'd been doing some research."

Here again as in the first book in this series, it seemed like the book should be over then it went on. The pacing of some of CA's books is sometimes off for me.

There are other of her books that I like better. ( )

This is a bit of an atypical romance in that the main female character is a paraplegic at the time the relationship starts. I thought the author did a good job at showing the challenges that a paraplegic might face in life and in relationships. I was a bit disappointed because I thought the author planned to have the two married before they got intimate, but shortly after discussing that between the two of them, she had them in the bedroom anyway.

I was glad to see that Sly found his love and married her also. I'm guessing his story will come in a future installment of the series. ( )

Thoroughly unimpressed. Wheelchair-bound and a cowboy. Interesting premise, dull read. ( )

I tried. I can't do it.

Between the info dumping about universal design to the freaking tire iron beating on my head while some crazy broad is screaming "BETHANY'S A CRIPPLE! A C-R-I-P-P-L-E! SHE'S LOST SO MUCH! ISN'T IT JUST THE WORST EVER?! SHE'S SO BRAVE TO KEEP GETTING OUT OF BED!" I just can't read this bullshit.

If we're supposed to see Bethany as a woman first, if this is supposed to be about how the human spirit is adaptable to overcome adversity, then why the hell is the entirety of the first few chapters completely focusing on the handicap rather than the person? How can the author convince the reader that a paraplegic is a woman like any other woman, when she clearly doesn't believe it herself?

I can see where this book is going, and I don't want to go there. I'm stopping now before I have a freaking fit of rage. ( )
