Of course I found this book to be one I could not put down. This is the second book I have read by Johnson and it will not be my last.
She writes just as well as most of my favorite long time authors.
The storyline and characters were not one you will soon forget. You can close your eyes and see they pages coming to life.
I loved the way I felt like I was in Key West.
Romance at its best. I gave this book 4 stars and I can't wait for Johnson next book.
I was given a copy of this book by the publisher for my honest review.
