review 1: Straight out of the gate I was predisposed to not love this. College-student heroine, 23 year-old hero and 1st person heroine only POV. But since I liked this author's other things I've read (Freefall and Clutch), and the hero was a wounded war vet, I thought there was a chance it could rock my world. But it didn't.It was okay. I thought the suspense toward the end and the mystery about the Professor's cagey behavior was good. I was not feeling the romance at all. When did these two fall for each other exactly? Did I miss something? I was pretty bored reading this until the action started--which was like 80% into the story. Honestly, a dual POV would have made all the difference. If we had been in Dalton's head even a little bit this could have been better than "o... morekay".
review 2: 3.5 stars rounded up to 4. This was one of those "sneaker" books that I didn't give much chance of liking, but I really did enjoy it. But, it easily could have been so much better with a little more attention to the mystery that was taking place during the story and then how it ended. The ending could have been much more detailed and angsty, before we got our HEA.That said, I loved Dalton (wounded war veteran, very swoon worthy) and really liked Auggie, a girl born with a silver spoon in her mouth but with her head screwed on straight (and she got to have Dalton, I'm SO jealous!). less

3.5 stars. A little too rushed or forced at the end but still a good read.
