Okay. 
 First of all I want to thank Julie Ann Knudsen for graciously sending me her book. I felt so honored, really :D 
 Now to what I honestly thought... 
 To put it bluntly, like my stars indicate, it was OK but on the borderline of "I don't like it". 
 I felt like I never really connected with the characters. 
 I'm a stickler for romance and this one was just awkward and could have been developed a lot better. 
 The novel itself was written well enough but it never grasped my attention and it was the fact that the author gave me the book that I made myself finish the book. 
 I'm sorry, Julie :( 
 It was a lovely idea and I mean that but it just wasn't my forte. 
 But fellow readers, don't let that stop you from reading it. You never know, it might be your forte :) 
 Thanks again, Julie :D
