I didn't love this one. Caleb was crude and too forceful when they first met. It took me a long time to get over the way he used and abused her. He forced her to do something against her specific wishes and she was hurt very badly by it. It was disgusting and unforgivable. And though he claimed to feel guilt and remorse, he also claimed he'd do it all again if he had to. So that's the start of this relationship between Caleb and Ramie. Ramie was a mess. But she knew she was a mess. And quite frankly, I could hardly blame her for being the mess that she was. I was grateful when she decided to not be that mess of a weakling anymore, though. And I accepted her falling in love with Caleb. But then Caleb again does the unthinkable. It was just too much. I was glad this book ended. The HEA wasn't so much joy at their happy ending. It was more relief that no one else would end up saddled with them. But, I didn't hate it and I tend to enjoy books by this author, so that's why the 2 stars. I actually enjoyed Dane and Eliza, so hopefully we'll see more of them later in the series. And hopefully when next we meet Caleb and Ramie, she won't be such a mess and he won't be such a bully.
