Gentleman Nine by Penelope Ward

It's hard not to get excited when a new Penelope Ward book comes out. She has something special about her writing that makes you want more...need more of her words. As much as I would love to sit here and type all the words that has me loving this book I just can't do it. I wanted to. I wanted to remember these two. I wanted them to stand out among all the rest.

Unfortunately, I just couldn't connect with these two. The conversations just didn't seem sincere for me. I wanted to feel the chemistry and that love from all the years ago, but it just fell short and I couldn't seem to find the connection between Channing and Amber.

I'm not saying I didn't enjoy their characters- just as a couple I didn't connect with the story they were telling. I think my favorite most connecting part of this book was when Rory told his side of the story.  I felt all the feels and emotions I wanted to feel as Amber and Channing were finding their way.
