Honestly, there were a lot of repetitive arguments in this book. The couple kept coming back to the same thing over and over, with little change. It became annoying very quickly. And I didn't care for the no-means-yes "seduction" scenes.

I usually hate plots of mistaken identity, but Jordan pulled it off nicely. It actually made sense why Evie needed to pretend to be her sister since it was a reality that she might lose her adoptive son otherwise.
The main problem I have with this book is Evie going back and forth between wanting and pushing Spencer away. Jordan does this a lot with her women and it's always 100 pages too much of the same thing.
Otherwise it's pretty entertaining. Not the best but not the worse.
