The author is a great writer, and the characters are as always attractive and interesting. BUT the plot is very similar to the previous two books in the series - for example, the first 'love scene' is practically identical to one in her first book. Other scenes were very similar as well. I was left with the impression that the author had run out of ideas and owed her publisher a book. Disappointing. I feel bad writing this as her first book is my favourite romance ever, and the second is very good - but this third book contains just a few too many recycled bits of the first two. Come on, Deborah - put some more effort in! Your readers are eager and waiting!
