Helpful Score: 8

I liked this second book in the Byrons of Braebourne series and could really feel the passion between the H/H, their blossoming love for each other and their anguish when they are torn apart. However, the pacing of the story seemed a bit slow and drawn out. And yet, at the same time, the author propels the reader ahead in time at every turn with phrases like "ten days passed by," "five evenings later," "after nearly a week," "three weeks passed," "during her first month's residency," "nearly seven weeks later," "in the weeks leading up to," "ten days passed as the ten before them," "a week later," "nearly a month later," "six weeks later," "during the six weeks that had passed."

I didn't care much for this method of forcing the story forward. What happened between the H/H during those many time lapses? More slow and drawn out lack of action? Tracy Anne Warren is a wonderful author and I read all of her books. I just hope the next installment in the series will be more dynamic.
