I have read Lisa Tuckers other books and loved the characters and storylines. This book is very different than her others. I was often confused as to whether the story was speaking in the past or present tense. There were too many characters fighting for attention. The biggest thing for me was the major plot concerning the three adult chracters involved with the pharmacuetical industry, it was too complicated and involved for my taste and for what I thought a book by this author would be about. Some parts of the story were very sweet, but overall I would recommend any of her other books before I would this one.
