this fucking book... 
 this is why i'm a romance reader. i picked up this book years ago, and i've been stalking jodi thomas ever since. i admit i was far more interested in the romance and less focused on all the action. the story isn't perfect and i wished the ending wasn't so abrupt nor carter's and bailee's reunion so brief, but despite the story's flaws, it moved me nonetheless, and its a book i come back to again and again. don't you just love finding a story that you can re-read? 
 and carter...
