Like you, I never liked Imogen and that didn't change at all with this book. I found her whiney and self-absorbed. I just wish there had been fewer plot contrivances and more character development. Imogen could have used a little of what EJ did for Annabel - lots of scenes with just the hero and heroine sorting themselves out, instead of embroiling them in over-complicated situations.Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02635753217472348567noreply@blogger.com
