Had this book on my wish list, but it was going to take forever to get, so I checked it out from the library. After reading it, I'm glad I didn't use a credit on it.

I was hoping this book was going to be good, but by the end, I didn't really think it was a great book. I found Pippa to be a bit of a push over and her birth mother, extremely annoying. The first half of the book didn't seem all that realistic because the characters just seemed too positive about things. I kept thinking "This wouldn't happen in real life. It's not this black and white." Things begin to unravel eventually, but I wasn't that impressed with the book.
