I don't think I have enough room to really give this review justice. I liked this book a lot. It is very reminiscent of a modern version of "House of Mirth". Fiona is a very real and "beautiful wreck" whose mother deserted her when she was quite young. The story starts out seeming like your typical "local girl finds romance that was right under her nose all along", but turns into a suspenseful "whodunnit".

This was a really great book about a 30 year old woman who suffers some ill perceptions of the world around her, which in turn costs her some difficult experiences with men (mostly) you end up really "feeling" for Fiona and the bad turns her life has taken. Her mother left when she was little and her father (if it really is Patrick) starts out not wanting to know her. She comes off as a slut, but when you begin to understand her, you start to see that she doesnt mean to be that way at all.

Very good. I read it in a few hours. Poor girl in the story is really messed up, but she is trying to fix her life. It is a complex story, lots of twists and turns.
