Sweet romance
The tale of a brewing romance between a couple who grew up together is always a good start to an engaging novel. I gave it only four stars in that I wasn’t convinced that there was anything serious involved that threatened that relationship. I will admit that the antagonist’s character did show a small bit of variety to the stock image of rich, famous and shallow woman, in that she did show she was generous and at times thoughtful. However, I felt it wasn’t as well developed as is could have been. The rest was quite well done.

Another Jasper lake story
As is the case with all of her books, I very much enjoyed this one. Yes, it is true that we don’t have to search for the most popular or biggest person or thing, but what we need is what is right in front of us. Very well done!!
