Once he got past some of the layers, he worried about his past effecting Lily, whereas Lily was already a piranha due to her cousin's actions in the first book. Lily's layers grew with the story due to her discovering the truth about her childhood memories. With each of these layers, we eventually saw the two of them form into a couple united against their past, present, and future.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05408529059717548450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871943437128666701.post-39774294616204425892012-03-06T07:39:53.347-05:002012-03-06T07:39:53.347-05:00Dick, I don't remember the prequel either...pr...Dick, I don't remember the prequel either...probably because I couldn't finish it. I do enjoy stories that have well rounded secondary characters.SidneyKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15119124523795475294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4871943437128666701.post-76310632436158405352012-03-05T22:14:45.764-05:002012-03-05T22:14:45.764-05:00I had difficulty getting into this book, and had t...I had difficulty getting into this book, and had to push at times to continue to the end. Part of the difficulty was that I didn't remember much about the prequel. Like you, I liked the characterization of the secondary characters. But something about the book as a whole just didn't appeal. At times, I would think to myself that the story was more like a parable than a romance--Tobin's panic attacks and the reference to the mud, light, etc.--none of which occurred until he returned to the village-- and Tobin's complete shift in the HEA reinforced that thought.<br /><br />dickAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
