I'm a big Seidel fan. I think she's one of the unknown treasures of romance fiction. That said, this book really didn't work for me. It felt like rehash of a lot of the themes and dynamics which she explored so brilliantly in Til the Stars Fall. I also had a hard time liking the hero.My suggestion, if you like second chance at love stories and you want to try Seidel, pick up Til the Stars Fall instead of this.
