I had a hard time with this book.  The narrative drove me crazy.  Alex is suppose to be 29, but she comes out sounding like she's 15.  And a very spoiled, annoying 15 at that.  I also don't think I connected with her because her idea of heaven was a closest full of designer clothes and the perfect guy next door, because in Seventh Heaven you get exactly what you dreamed of.  I did like the idea of earning her right to stay in Seventh Heaven, but not much of her story made me feel like she did deserve to be there.  I did enjoy her reflections of when she realized she couldn't rely on her daddy to bail her out of trouble anymore.  And I was impressed with her desire to move to the other side of the country to make something of herself.  Overall, it was really just the main characters voice that I couldn't handle.  Not sure if I will seek out something else by this author.
