Anderson makes Annie almost a little too naïve for my taste, but it works out in the overall plot. What I don't like about her is how naïve she seems sometimes. I think her disability makes her a more attainable character, because no one is perfect. As delicate and beautiful as the tender blossoms of the Oregon spring.

Annie Trimble lives in a solitary world that no one enters or understands. Also, the guilt Alex feels is justly deserved, and he becomes more likeable because he owns up to how incredibly wrong he was about Annie. Reviews arent verified, but Google checks for and removes fake content when its identified. In her special place, you see for the first time her potential to live just like every one else.

She's completely different than the quiet insecure woman the readers, and Alex, know. I enjoy the scene when Alex discovers Annie in the attic for the first time. Anderson also handles difficult topics (the rape) very well. Annie has a disability, and in a world of romance novels with two physically perfect protagonists, finding a story where the female protagonist was deaf is refreshing. When Alex Montgomery learns of the injustice sweet Annie has suffered, he vows to do whatever it takes to set it. I like this story because the romance is unique.
