This mystery romance novel has a more modern feel to it. I enjoyed reading about the young heroin's struggle to realize her own life's dreams rather than live under her grandmother's dominating demands and expectations. There is some tension within the story involving a second antagonist that is very intriguing. It kept me reading to the end.
