I enjoyed this book more than the first. I found the storyline to be more original and enjoyed the situations that the author put these characters in. The level of emotion was cranked up in this book and it made me want to read faster to see what would happen next. 
 Just when Keri Ann thought she had her life pointed in the right direction, Jack returns and everything is quickly turned upside down. This truly is a story about forgiveness and allowing yourself to believe in someone else. But, the subtext is that no matter how much you love someone, you should never lose yourself. Keri Ann worked very hard in this book to maintain her identity and, although at times I really wanted to smack her and tell her to get over herself, she ultimately looked outside of herself to make her final decision. And Jack gave her the opportunity to do that...even though he loved and wanted her! Now that's the kind of man we all need. 
 Overall, this series was a fun, light, quick read...enjoyable and full of the romance I totally enjoy!
