review 1: I'm confused how I feel about this one. I think I could have done with more of an epilogue.I’m really confused as to how I feel about this book. From the very beginning my heart was in my mouth waiting for the inevitable to happen, it put me on edge and I think it prevented me from fully engaging with the plot.Quinn’s character development is simply outstanding and I adored the woman she was becoming. Ben simply frustrated me even more than he did in Grounding Quinn; don’t get me wrong he is a fabulous guy BUT his desperation to be needed is just all kinds of messed up. It’s as if he can’t see what is in front of him, he projects his insecurities onto situations turning them into self-fulfilling prophecies *sigh*. I seriously wanted to give him a good shake, how ... moreon earth can he be so stupid.That person from Ben’s past – yeah we all guessed who that was – made me so angry. The sweet and innocent act gets old FAST. Coupled with the lingering tension with Ben’s mother made me want to rant against all the injustice on Quinn’s behalf.I felt as if the ending was a little rushed and personally would have liked a longer, more detailed epilogue in order to come to terms with the developments of the plot. See I told you I was confused :)
review 2: I was glad everything worked out between Ben and Quinn cause their like two halves of one whole to each other. But when Ben started to feel useless and unsure of his feelings i kind of started to get mad at him. After everything they've been through he would choose at that point to question what they have and I dont understand why he couldnt just tell Quinn what he was doing and why he kept sending signals to Linney if they were unintentional. But out of all that im glad they were able to talk and work it out. What surprised me most for some reason was that Quinns brother and her enemy got together and got engaged. Loved the books. less
