This is a great oldie from the closet

Well worth a re-read or a first read.

I hope someday Paula will complete it as intended at the time but as it stands it is essentially complete, few serious danging plotlines, so you won't feel cheated. Just they are such interesting characters you will wish for more.

Very much an 'if life gives you lemons, make lemonade' story.

Now if only we can get Karen to finish Kari! , Itinerant to continue Amazon and that 'tosa guy to post somemore Timeout.

Though that last one is a real yawner.

What John Said, Mostly...

While I'm not a fan of BC spotlighting unfinished novels, this one comes to a reasonably solid resting place and I found it well worth the visit. As the headings suggest, there's good action, sweet characters, convincing background and more-than-competent writing here.

(Can't remember whether I read it in '07 or not. I know this reflects more on me than on the author, but I found Paula's constant use of "use to" and "suppose to" instead of "used to" and "supposed to" very grating at the time.)
