Helpful Score: 2

I liked the idea behind this book, but I don't think it was executed well. I really liked Sam; he was a well-rounded character and I thought the author did a great job letting the reader know his motivations and what made him tick. Emeline, on the other hand, was the complete opposite. There was nothing special about her. She was a typical society lady that cared too much about what others thought of her. I never felt the connection between her and Sam, though I thought the love scenes were steamy.

I didn't care for the plot either. It seemed to be a set-up for subsequent books, but it didn't seem to serve a real purpose to me. By the end of the novel, I didn't care who the traitor was nor did I feel that Emeline was deserving of Sam's time or affection. I'm uncertain if I'm going to read the next one in this series.
