The first thing I wanted to do when I finished this was to read the next book. But I'd checked it out at church, and had to wait a week to get the next ones!
I liked the conflict and the characters a lot.
I really liked the hero, Ransome. He'd made a mistake before (or, perhaps, it could be termed a simple error in judgment) and had to get up the courage to realize he could still retrieve that part of his life. He played the man, and I liked that.
Julia's courage and level-headedness was a pleasure. She wasn't a silly, simpering heroine by any stretch of the imagination, but a strong lady.
Their friends Susan and Collin Yates were a joy, too. It's always pleasant to have characters with such a successful marriage in books. :)
There were a few issues with the editing, such as missing commas and periods and a couple instances of the wrong word (has instead of was, which made me stop and figure out the sentence.) That ultimately took away a half star of my rating because of how many times it bothered me...though most people probably wouldn't notice.
