It started off strong and had my attention. The next thing I know I felt like I was reading the same thing over and over. Anna began to get on my nerves but I do have to remember what it was like to be her age and doubt men. Add all the heartache and torture she went through. However it took me months to finish this book. I could only take so much of the characters and the plot began to drag on. I do not recommend this unless you really don't have any thing else to read.
