This was a fun book, I liked it. There were times that things did not make sense which made the book go down to four stars. I did like the heroine and the hero.

my favorite MacLean so far??? Idk this was fun and this series in general feels very comforting to me for some reason. Yes, the pacing in the third act is a little off, and I wish we'd been a little more direct about Hattie and Whit's individual vulnerabilities, BUT I'm okay with it overall.
If I had a nickel for everytime MacLean used the word "pleasure" though...

I'm not gonna lie, I didn't love this as much as I thought I was going to. Honestly, Hattie carried pretty much the whole story for me. Yet another badass heroine who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to go get it, no matter what "polite society" might think.
I felt the pacing was weird in this one. One minute things were moving a smidge too fast then there were sections I felt dragged a little. I don't feel like we got enough of the hero's character/personality (or it could just be how I've read it).
