SYNOPSIS: Emily is sent away from her boarding school for improper behavior. She is left at her uncle's mercy, and he tries to find her a suitable match. However, she fights against the bonds she feels are tightening around her, and runs away with her cousin to Europe. Unfortunately, he begins to see her as a possession, and soon, she has to escape from another unhealthy relationship and try to find herself.
AUNT SHARON'S TAKE: This was another audiobook I checked out from the library, and was a little hard to get through. I imagine it would have been even harder if I had been reading it instead of listening to it. I found the heroine to be dramatic and inconstant, and couldn't really interest myself in what happened to her. There was some mild sensuality in the book, including a brief relationship with a married man, so I would recommend this book only for young adults or adults.
