review 1: Having read the previous Miss Ellie book, with Mercy and Rafe as children, I was eagerly looking forward to this one. But they are harder to like as adults, with Rafe not having grown up and Mercy controlling every situation. Their past, with their short lived marriage was a good premise, but it just didn't have the same magic as the previous book (Rafe's dad and step-mother) for me. Plus, Mercy didn't just flirt with scandal! She courted it. I did love the interplay between her and Rafe's stickler of a grandmother, though. Funny stuff in a book with not as many laughs.
review 2: I really liked the two books before this one in the series, not so much this one. It was okay, but I won't be rereading it. Even though it takes place 10 years after the last one I d
... moreon't feel as if the characters grew any in this book. We met both Rate and Mercy when they were just 12 and 10 years old and they were brats, more so Mercy. I actually didn't like Mercy as a little girl so I wasn't sure how I was going to find her as an adult. She was still a brat and I didn't care for her. Rate was just as bad with all the name calling. I mean act your age for cripe's sake. It was nice to see both Sophie and Ellie as mothers. less
