This is a pretty great cover. It's a good representation of the story. It has great composition (for the most part). It's eye-catching and original. The only thing "I" don't care for is the type used for the title. It's weird that the "u" and the "i" are lowercase and that throws off the composition a bit. I would have gone with a font that had a bit more unity in regards to the size of the different characters
This one was just OK for me. There wasn't anything overtly wrong with it. The writing was okay. The plot was all right. The characters were likable enough. I didn't feel a great connection between them, unfortunately. I am sure I was meant to, but to be honest, I felt more passion between the heroine and her dead fiancee in the first chapter then I did between her and the hero for the entirety of the book.
I also found it SO long and SO slow moving. Like, mind numbingly slow. I almost felt like there were too many different side stories going on (Aspen's issues with her Mom & work, Her Dad's death, Anderson's Moms cancer, Anderson's super secret job). On top of that, it was also incredibly melancholy. This is not a light-hearted book, and while there is nothing wrong with that, FOR ME, it just overshadowed EVERYTHING.
So like I said it was OK. I think the author could have tightened the plot up A LOT and dropped a bunch of unnecessary (IMO) scenes that would have improved the overall pace of the book. But it certainly wasn't the worst book I have ever read.
