Title: Not My Favorite "Promise" Book
Review: I've read all the Promise books and looked forward to this sequel, but I was disapointed in what has happened to the "Dr. Jane" character. She doesn't act very intelligently (IMO) for an educated and previously spirited lady, in fact, she seems rather like a 1950's type of woman. And Cal, unfortunately, acts like an demanding jerk. (I realize their conflict is the point of the story, but it didn't seem very realistic as the characters seemed more mature in the previous books.) Of course there was a happy outcome, although it felt rather contrived. I read the whole thing to see what happened to the characters of Promise, who I rather liked (enough to buy the books), but I wouldn't really recommend buying this one unless you are a big-time "Promise" fan and want to add it to your collection. I'm a fan of this author's books, but, sorry, not really of this - although it is still an OK read & somewhat updates the series.
Is the review positive or negative?
