Securing Jane by Susan Stoker
4.0
Loved Jane. Loved Storm. Totally loved their relationship and the development of it that we were witness to. Loved the ensemble cast... so good to have so many of our favourites there!
I get the whole 'Shawshank' thing... but, for me, it was a little OTT. I really didn't like Rose and was kind of hoping that it would turn out that she was part of the 'problem'... she was 26 for goodness sake... and yet, she was still behaving as a young teen. Accountability anyone? I think, for me, the tone of my attitude to Rose was set with the whole 'Plain Jane' thing... just awful. Left a nasty taste in my mouth. It is only for those two things that this isn't a 5 star for me. They just... jarred.
