Not the best but not the worst! I would read this book again it was not that bad . Yes it does need editing but overall pretty good. It is a short story so the story lacks some depth like most short storie . I thought it was a cute love story. It is pride and prejudice style format. Overall not bad..

Her sister's beauty is renowned throughout the county. But what
