review 1: This is a life-time movie kind of book, carrying you along exactly where you think it will go, with everything moving along smoothly like it never does in real life. It was simply written and an easy read, but it won't grip your heart or emotions. The author should have just put the timeline in present day because the attempt at adding in "futuristic" garnishes were just sad. The chemistry between the characters was great; however, the build-up and teasing throughout made the lack of a sex scene a crushing disappointment. The plot "twists" at the end weren't much of a surprise and felt like a cop-out, but the beginning is really nice and Kipp's grandfather is a wonderful secondary character that I wish to have read more about. The same could be said for the brother's girlf... moreriend. Her character felt deeper than the words on the paper. Kipp's fears are real and handled well from his point of view, but they are never addressed in a concrete way. All in all, it was okay, but it's not a gripping page-turner...
review 2: 1.5 stars - I'm not going to pick fault with the writing because it wasn't that bad, but the story was all over the place. I ended up skipping through a hell of a lot of it, getting confused about the 'Families' and who all these characters even were, and also getting just plain fed up with the MCs. The book felt far too long, as well, although perhaps it just felt that way because I wasn't enjoying it. At certain points, I was reading it thinking "why the heck are they telling me all this?" because there were paragraphs that just felt pointless and repetitive, as if the author was just trying to fill pages to buff the story up a bit. After a while, I found I was just skipping through a lot of it to try and get closer to the end. less

2.5 Stars A long soap opera with lots of sugar and no real sex. Yikes.

Meh, 2.5 stars rounded up. Not bad but not what I was hoping for.
