This is the first book I have read by Julia
London. It will not be my last. This was a captivating, sassy,
sexy read. I love the characters and how this skillful author
brings them to life. Underneath it all is a tender love story
that will satisfy readers. This story was one I could not
put down. It kept me reading well into the night. I look forward
to reading many more novels by this talented author.
