An all-time fav that I loved so much I even bought it in hardback; nevertheless, it just didn't hold up through the years when I re-read it last year. Clayton was too much of an a$$hat, especially over the last Big Misunderstanding. Still, it is a roller-coaster ride for those that like it. I remember feeling Clayton had so much potential and
wanting for him to be just a little bit different so I could like him a little bit more. (At times, he appears as two different men.) This is one of those books, unlike
The Flame and the Flower, that makes me question my past romance tastes. I remember reading this a couple of times back then and it made me cry. Now, I was just disgusted and disgruntled.
