After reading Devil in Winter, I really wanted to read Cam's story. I just love the character.
The Hathaway family is just a mess. It felt a bit over the top to me. One sibling is a kleptomaniac, another self-destructive and suicidal, another struggling with chronic illness. It was just a bit much for me.
I found Amelia herself to be annoying. I still don't understand her reluctance to marry Cam. It didn't make sense to me.
I'm not comfortable with the racism in the book either. It just felt off. Devil in Winter didn't have the same feel.
