An Unlikely Place for Love: The Disguises of Kate Tanner by Ruth Ann Nordin
Did not finish book.
1.5 stars.
I picked this book because it had one of my favorite things: girl pretending to be a boy. Don't know why, but I enjoy it...in other books.
For a woman hiding as a man to save her own life, she is pretty cavalier with who she divulges her real identity to. Actually, a lot of this wasn't really thought out, nor is it believable. The heroine is kind of too dumb to live at times, and the living situation the hero is in is kind of baffling as well.
Also, this is apparently a Christian romance, which I didn't know and doesn't seem to be advertised as such. It takes a bit for it to surface, but then she's saying things like, "I know you are a good man, because you're a Christian." It's nice to read people being super judgy about others because they aren't religious like them. /sarcasm
Anyway, not worth my effort for a more detailed review, but this felt like a chore to read and I DNFed it about 40% through.
