As I was reading, I kept thinking of all the ways this book could have been written into a really really good book! I gave it 2 stars for it's potential. Feb 03, Kristin rated it it was ok. I really liked the premise of the story, but what really bothered me was the writing style. I believe the intent was that the character's are telling their story, but it came across very formal and detracted from me building a relationship with the characters.
Then at some point the story really lost me. I got the religious tone, but really Iwas waiting for the heroine to wake in the psych ward realizjng that loss parents caused her to fall into a deep depression which led to a mental break. I must be a heathen cause really it got a little far fetched. Jul 17, OOSA rated it really liked it.

We get this repeated over and over and over at the beginning of the book. Please give the reader credit Very cute book with an interesting storyline. Please give the reader credit of remembering something that they just read 5 mins earlier.
I also thought the "twist" who dunnit wasn't really believable because I didn't think there was much of a motive for the "mole". But this again probably comes down to character development. It was a fun, easy book to read for a lazy afternoon. Jun 11, Tina Bartholoma rated it liked it Shelves: I had a hard time breaking through the veil of disbelief in the beginning. It was if the heroine didn't exist until the day the story started, and considering how flat the description of her life is that's probably a good thing.
There are some incredibly creative concepts in the story and the twists kept coming. It's also got an interesting tense shift, in chapters with the main character it's in first person but the other chapters are all third person. All in all, I would say this it's a promising start but still needs some trade craft to polish it up. Jan 30, Laura Elizabeth rated it did not like it Shelves: Okay, this was an Amazon freebie, I got a while back. Having said that, this basically sums The Wishing Hour up: Celine is average; she never takes chances, she sticks to her routine and all this gets thrown off when a cute cute enters her life.

Miss Adams is truly talented touches the heart, there are moments of laughter, sadness and joy, what a true romance should have.
I have to admit to being disappointed that the woman had to change in looks, she seemingly went from being a black woman to a white woman and the thought that she never truly felt beautiful until she changed. I would feel the same if I was reading about a white he This was a true romance, a wonderful love story and different from any story of bonded mates I've ever read. I would feel the same if I was reading about a white heroine who turned black. I didn't read too enthusiastically after her change, it was still a very good story though. I do wish I could ask Miss. Adams why the heroine needed to change.
