As with all books in a series, there was some rehashing of story lines and explanations of characters back history, yet this didn't make the nook drag on like others authors are prone to do.
BalasHapusGreat book. Awesome author. Lovely story.
I would recommended this book and all the other books in the McCabe trilogy to anyone. It was hard to put down.

Love this series, but my favorite will always be Sin and Julianna, I hope Frost gets as good a story as Sin.........
