Book one-seventy-three: Cross My Heart

Cross My Heart (2007)
Carly Phillips

Rating: 2/5

Starts out strongly, but then doesn’t really go anywhere. And there are a couple of plot lines which might have been interesting, but which aren’t explored.

And to make matters worse, half of the characters are left unresolved. I think there is another book. I hate that. But I will probably end up reading the next one. I am intrigued.

She's gone from riches to rags—and back again!

Ten years ago, Lilly Dumont was the ultimate poor little rich girl, complete with a huge inheritance...and an uncle determined to take it from her. With the help of her first love, she faked her own death and ran away to New York City, leaving behind everything, including her own name. Lilly Dumont was gone, but Lacey Kincaid was going to make it. Only neither one ever forgot Ty Benson.

Now Lacey's back to claim her inheritance. And her sizzling reunion with Ty has made her homecoming something to remember! Only not everybody's thrilled to see Lacey alive and well... And it's up to Ty to make sure his childhood sweetheart doesn't disappear again—for good!
