This story didn't turn out to be the way I expected and that in itself is a good thing. There were lots of unpredictable twists and turns that kept the characters interesting. I enjoyed how the developing love between Aileen and Blake wasn't something that they fought against too hard and that it happened fairly early on in the story. However, I was frustrated and disappointed that their romance was dominated by Aileen's sister's dilemma, and that Aileen's scandalous history was glossed over, which should have played a more prominent role in how she related to Blake. Ultimately, I wondered who's story this was; Aileen and Blake's or Tara's? Because of the lopsided slant, I have to give this one 3 stars.
