I won this book on a goodread giveaway The plot was good but I found it to have too many characters with long double names that just confused me Many thanks
I won this as part of good reads first reads giveaway. I truly would like to give it 1.5 stars. It was an easy read but at times it was difficult to connect all the characters. For such a small book there were too many characters. Plot line was far fetched. I believe this book should be read in one sitting, as I found that putting it down to read later only added to the confusion in connecting all the characters.
I love romance books and I was skeptical at first when my girlfriend gave me these to read while on vacation, because trilogies are hard to do, but I was very impressed and was texting Jodi how much I loved it, and she was like, I know right. This is a 100% must read!
Unfortunately I had a difficult time trying to read this book. I am a huge bookworm, but this novel was rough. Part of my problem may have been the fact that it was part of a series, but it was not able to capture my attention.

Between the large number of characters with their long and odd names, the ridiculous plot, typos, grammar mistakes, the wrong person's name appearing in the dialogue, and the numerous times that "the moment was awkward" was used I found this book to be awful. I read it in one sitting because I was afraid I would get lost with the characters if I stopped reading and I was hoping the book would get better. It didn't.
Ok where do I start. K so I'm not going to be to hard because this is the first book I have read of this series. But I think there are so many people in this book and I felt like it was all over the place. I tried to keep up with the people and remember who was who. But then more people were introduced and I just couldn't keep my interest. But this is my opinion.
This book was interesting from the beginning. It told a story of the Grand Hotel and the lives of the family and friends from the previous book. Am looking forward to the next series. Highly will recommend this book...there were less error in the proof reading... :D
