This book oozed with resentments and unforgiveness, something I find pretty refreshing, and while reading this book is quite a torture, I must say that I admire the heroine’s dynamic and enimagtic nature.

She starts off as a dreamer, who is passionate about everything, but build a wall around herself so that nobody could hurt her ever again when she discovered that she was betrayed in the worst way possible by the person whom she loves dearly.

I love how she makes it hard for the hero to redeem himself, and I love how persistent the hero is in regards of breaking the wall around her heart. A wonderful book to read. Be forewarned, though. This book is not really an easy read, and it will bring you on a emotional roller-coaster ride. I rate this book 4 stars.

I received an ARC of this book from Harlequin via Netgalley. I was not required to write a positive review for this book.
