Will Gilly be able to come clean to Christopher?
Gilly Carter
Gilly Carter is an heiress that is used to having money around and spends it without thinking much about it. The biggest thing I like about Gilly is that she's an heiress, but she's afraid of telling people that she is one because they might use her to get to her money. Another thing that I like about her is that it took her a while to get used to not spending her money, and she handled it so well. Sure it sucked, but she had a plan, and she followed through. Gilly's reasoning for wanting to be a teacher is also lovely as well. I'm not too fond of some things about her, but I can't say since they are spoilers. However, I will tell you that Gilly isn't good at handling certain things that she inadvertently caused to happen a while back.
Christopher Callahan
Christopher Callahan isn't a person who ghosts girls after sleeping with them and then shows up at their school to teach alongside them, but that is what happened. He seems like a good person who has a troubled past, especially when dealing with money. Chris does change throughout the story, and I love seeing that through Gilly's eyes. It was also cute to see how much Gilly loves him. Chris has his faults, though, that show throughout and make it hard for him to trust Gilly. The things that I like about him are that he makes Gilly a better person and makes her realize that maybe she shouldn't be spending her money all willy nilly.
Along with the fact that he is the complete opposite of her which makes them pretty funny. I only have one dislike about him. Chris is very stubborn, and because of his stubbornness, he can't see things clearly that might not make sense at the time.
Four Stars
I love reading the stories that Ms. Snowe imagines up since I feel like I'm actually there with the characters and experiencing these things with them. Gilly and Christopher are a cute couple, and I hope that they get to stay happily ever after, much like grumpy Brock and peppy Grace are. Another person that I'm hoping gets a happily ever after is Gilly's brother Fritz. I'm giving Teaching With the Enemy by Jaqueline Snowe four stars, and I'm recommending it to all my adults readers.
