3.5 Stars
The idea of a hearing impaired heroine was interesting. I also really liked that this was a factor in their relationship, in who Melissa is, but not a deal breaker. This appealed to me, as it was nice to see a heroine who was less than the "ideal" but still the heroine of the story, and perfect for Declan, the hero. I really liked that.
Oddly, though, I thought there were times when the hearing loss that she deals with was too much of a non-issue. Places where I thought it should have been addressed and it wasn't. It was a minor thing, but it was there.
I enjoyed the chemistry between Declan and Melissa. I liked that I believed in him, and in his attraction to her, that he really wanted to be involved with her, that he cared about her, and the interest had nothing to do with her being deaf and everything to do with her being a woman.
I thought the pacing was mostly good, although I thought the story took a long time to get going and that there were a couple of extra characters that were not necessary and slowed down the progression of the romance. Once I got farther into the story, I was able to enjoy it and I liked it.
I do recommend this overall.
