Query: Absolutely Awful****

Because I am not a quitter, when reading, I continued on with this nonsense because Ms. Deveraux had been one of my favorite authors since I discovered her a many years ago. Her latest books have not been anything to brag about.....but this one is just BAD.I don't know what happened to her writing, but when I saw that this was published FIRST in paperback, I should have known that it wasn't written with the expertise of her previous novels. Actually it wasn't a novel, it was just a story....put together rather quickly and without any thought. I was disappointed!
