Reviews

[Sarah · Rating 3 out of 5]

I absolutely LOVED the first book in this series, so of course I decided to read the next one. Where do I start? First off...there were too many men involved. Robin, Duncan, and Aaron. Why? I found it a little over the top. I understand that The next book is about Aaron, so that makes sense. But why all the interaction with Alix? I just didn't get it. Second, there were too many people in general to
Keep up with. We had Robins sister, the maids, Alix's brother, the orphan children, robins little sister whos name I could never remember, Alix's friend from school, and many more. It's okay to have a lot of people, but Samson attatched a story on each one of those people. It was like reading a book about 15 different people! I'm not saying I didn't like the book, it was just a tad confusing and frustrating. I like the storyline and the dialect. The dialect is a huge part of why I loved the first one and liked this one. I guess after crying, laughing, and smiling at the first, you can't except the sequel to be as good.
