I read a lot of romance novels. This is not one of them. This book is legitimately an awesome book. (Not that romances can't be awesome, but iirc the sex scenes in this one are glazed over or hit upon quite quickly and it's okay because they're not even remotely the point.) It actually made me cry in places, and it had me complaining to Carlos about the hero's actions. I was so pissed at him.
I reviewed it here with blurb and excerpt if you want to check out what it's about. You can buy it today, but I'd wait. It goes up FOR FREE on Amazon this weekend. I'll remind you.
I'm utterly serious when I say this book is AWESOME.
