I enjoyed this book so much! But why I didn't give this more than 3 stars? Well, mostly because I was expecting a lot of drama when the moment of truth comes up, yet.. I didn't really feel it. But overall reading this book reminds me a lot of the nostalgia that I always felt when i read Julia Quinn's books. It got me addicted all over again!

This past few days Im kinda feeling blue and cant see myself picking another book to read. And Im feeling that I might be experiencing a book slump.
