Une couverture plutôt glamour pour un livre qui aborde des sujets sérieux, tel que l'enfance difficile de David, le racisme et l'inégalité. Bien que j'ai d'abord apprécié que ce récit avait quelque chose de différent des romans que je lis d'habitude, au final c'est ce qui m'a empêché d'embarquer dans le récit et l'histoire des retrouvailles de David et Gayla. Parce que quand je lis une romance, je n'aime pas que les protagonistes passent tout leur temps avec d'autres personnes. Je suis vieux jeu comme ça et ça me prend plus que deux ou trois scènes entre eux pour croire que deux personnes qui ne s'apprécient pas sont soudainement tombés amoureuses l'une de l'autre deux chapitres avant la fin.
