Interesting!. Found this book interesting. Its one of the captivating books I have come across in recent days.

superb. This summary book inspires me to buy the original book. It’s so exciting, emotional, that I want to read this novel from beginning.

Amazing!. Love is novel so much. Catherine's role is the main role in this novel. Enjoying full novel.

Elementary, My Dears. The premise is colorful but that’s as deep as this one gets. I found it to be a simplistic and predictable beach read. I felt relief when it was over.

Great read. The writers really nailed it. The overall storyline is amazingly beautiful and romantic to a definite extent. I recommend this book to everyone.
