It'a ok.. not her best writing in my opinion.  I am a huge fan of the Plum series.

I was very disappointed in this book!  I didn't feel this was one of her best written books as far as keeping my attention and looking forward to finishing the book itself.  I think the major problem with the book was that I am not fond of so many murders in the style these were done.  I am sure many who buy this book will disagree with me, but I like to give true reviews of what I read.  I will certainly buy another of her books  because she does keep you guessing in her books!!

I swore this would be my last book because the writing was not good.  The book had little punch and seemed top drag on forever.  I think this was a poorly written book because it was co-authored. Her latest book was not  co-authored and is a lot better.

I was disappointed. I really REALLY like her other books but this one just didn't do it for me. If you find this one just a little funny defiantly read her others they are great.

I usually love her books but I could not get into this one.

Started out ok but dragged on and on. Not very exciting. Definitely not one of her best books. I finished it but kept waiting for something meaningful to transpire. Disappointing writing by this author.

I thought that it was kind of silly. Not much like her other books (of which I have read very many!).

It's was an okay read, not my favourite book from her.  I've read other books from her and enjoyed them better.

I was a little disappointed. After reading two other of her novels I was looking forward to this. Didn't seem to have the love and warmth of the others.

I wasn't really a fan of this one. The writing itself wasn't bad, but I wasn't a fan the h. Addy was constantly going back and forth, and anytime something made her mad, it was automatically Jack's fault. It didn't matter if it was or not, she just blamed him anyway. She never really stood up for herself with the people she should have. I didn't really like her until the last chapter or so, and even then she tried to start an argument with Jack. There were things introduced that never really went anywhere. Jack's mom? Jeremy? There was no resolution. This isn't a favorite of mine from this author, but I will be looking forward to what's next.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book.

not the best in this series.  Everyone I know that has read it, all agree that it is just so-so

I received an advance copy of this book through Library Thing.com in exchange for an honest review.
I wish I could say I loved this book but I really did not like it much. It was quite predictable in places and confusing in others. But in general I found the writing a bit choppy and did not care for the way the story flowed. I am sure others will find it a great read but sadly I did not. The characters were not convincing to me and just did not seem real and the ending was not a surprise. I am sure the author will do better next time around.....

I'm halfway through the series and not stopping now, but I have to be honest when I say that this was definitely not one of my favorites so far of the series. Took me the longest to get through. The writing isn't bad as much as the plot is just extremely slow! I'm invested so I will continue on but this book dragged it's feet for me. It started off decently paced and picked up with somewhere around one hundred pages left but the middle was just blah. I will continue on because I want to finish it and am vested!

Of the four novels written by Francine Rivers that I have read, this is my least favorite.  One is always compelled to finish her novels because of her excellent writing style, but this didn't compare to Redeeming Love and some of her other historical novels.

I never could get into the book. I think the writing is excellent but the story just didn't grab me. I brought some of her other books which I think are better. If this is your genre then it may be right up your alley. And though I like this time period and  historical information this one just didn't hit it out of the park for me.

I have come to expect quite a lot from the author  and for me this was my least favorite.  It just didn't have the energy of the others.
