MY REVIEW
Maryanne was a
nurse at the allergy clinic when Lucas Knight met her. She didn’t like him at
first, but soon warmed up to him. They both had obvious chemistry so they
quickly became a couple. But misunderstandings kept tearing them apart,
sometimes causing drastic consequences.
I did not like
either one of these characters. Their constant squabbles kept me from enjoying
the story. Maryanne’s personality bordered on being bipolar, and Lucas was
almost as bad. It all detracted from the focus of the story. I felt that it was
too much for the plot to overcome.
