I liked the concept of the story and the importance of family. However, the story was repetitive and I didn't really sense any growth. The characters made so many judgments and assumptions without giving the other person any benefit of the doubt. This happened so many times that I truly don't believe in the ending. I feel that there will be something else that will come between them due to preconceived notions. True growth doesn't happen in 3 days. I wasn't a fan of the hero and the heroine cried too much. But it was a quick read and a journey nonetheless. Could have been so much better. (Possible Minor Spoiler) I had a hard time accepting the fact that the hero wanted to "throttle" the heroine a few times due to her actions; this is completely disturbing considering the heroine's past. I don't think the author thought abt this enough. Griff that boy knows how to hit below the belt, "he pounced without hesitation. "Next time you feel the need to mother, have a kid of your own. I'll take care of Alix from now on." Chelsie is a girl that goes after what she wants, "so," she said in a husky voice, "if I want to know how much you want me, all I have to do..." Her seductive voice trailed off at the same moment her hand cupped him through his briefs." This one was a little more emotional than what I'm used to from Carly but that doesn't mean I didn't love it. I honestly don't think I've ever read a book by Carly that I didn't love and this wasn't an exception.
