Final Analysis

There is no sex in this book and little violence, so if those things bother you, never fear.

I really liked this story. It is an enjoyable easy-to-read romance. The innocence of first love is deftly described, and the answers to questions that had been baffling Katherine for a long time are answered. If you love romance, get this book!
