I really liked the premise of the story, but it was clumsy and could have used a decent editor.

I had a hard time getting into this book. The cover! *shudders, it's horrific and a total cheese fest, I'm beginning to think that most of their covers suck. Declan does not look like that, so so wrong.
It was slow and a bit tedious. I thought it was rather predictable as well. Yet about 3/4 in I realised that I was fully engaged in the story and with the characters. I love amazing secondary characters and jack and Georgie are wonderful. They are so sweet. I was counting down the hours until the kids went to bed so I could get back to it.
The ending had me as excitable as a 13 year old girl at a 1D concert. I'm still smiling and I'm going to go and start the next one as soon as possible.

This is an incredibly creative book, and I liked how descriptive it was.
I thought the characters were lacking any depth, but that may be because I didn't always understand what they were saying. Also Alice has to be one of the most irritating characters I've come across in a while. She came across as a spoilt little brat, who thought she was better then everyone.
