Not the worst book ever and it had its moments, but I'm kind of glad the challenge wasn't 2 books by Araminta. 2 by Wiley would leave you a street ahead on the deal.<br /><br />Thanks for linking back and the shout out - we must do this again sometime soon!

I like books with a solid context, and Col's comment about contrived endings doesn't exactly push this one onto the TBR either. Appreciate you both cherry-picking....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
