on Nov. 05, 2010 :
I couldn't stop reading this book once I began, I stayed up till 3 am this morning until I had read the last word.
When I was first introduced to Veronica's character, I thought of her as spoiled, however as I began to become more acquainted with her, I felt a strong need for her to find her beloved Jack. Without Jack, she was destined to live an unhappy life with a man who would isolate her from her friends, and even the intriguing Brad Williams.
This novel is full of suspense, humor, and romance. I recommend this novel to anyone who wants to dive into the life of a young woman on the search for her childhood love.
