Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy this story very much. I did not care for the main male character, starting right from the beginning when Reese makes a big deal (in the narration) about valuing trust so highly, and then he misleads a storekeeper into thinking he was asking questions about Victoria because he was interested in her as a possible suitor. And then he proceeds to hide his suspicions from Victoria, under the guise of protecting her. The fact that this story is a romance, and thus the male and female leads have to end up together, doesn't excuse the author from such contradictory characterization, or the fact that there's no real consequence for this deception.
The book is short, maybe novella length, and yet, there is a lot of repetition. The story is shallow, mostly focusing on the difficulties Victoria faces not knowing her past and Reese's vow to always find the truth, after being spurned by a deceitful woman. What added to the shallow feeling of the story is the author's way of showing how the characters are feeling. Generally, they either shuddered or shivered if they were worried, nervous, unhappy, scared, maybe even confused. That's it...shuddering or shivering (which, it can be argued, are practically the same thing anyway) are all they, especially Victoria, seem to be able to do to show those feelings.
I liked the first story in this series, but I don't think I'll continue on after reading this one. It felt rushed and hollow. As is common with books that I don't care for, though, most of the other reviews for it are positive, so please check them out if the story interests you. ( )
