Woodman, Cathy

While Woodman develops likable characters, overall this long-winded novel is disappointing. It plods along, and when there is a buildup about whether Zara and Lewis will be together, he simply talks her into changing her mind and the novel ends. Each of Woodman's Talyton St. George books can be read as a stand-alone novel, but this one is too uneventful to recommend on its own. Best for readers who have enjoyed other books in the series.
