4.0

I picked this up a few years ago, but due to the nature of the redemption story put it down for a later time. I picked it back up since I was needing a lighter read, and read it within twenty four hours. It was such a sweet story about the power of love and the chance for redemption. It was one of those books where the point of the story is the message it conveys, so there are points where some might say it gets preachy, but the message is a powerful one. Since it is the focus, though, the story wasn't as well crafted as it could have been. For example, I think that there should have been a bigger moment between Catrina and Jake after she confesses, and I think it would have been nice if Jake were a little more worried/guilty about his past. But overall a thoroughly enjoyable read.
