Query: Not worth the time

The only believable character in this book is Lucy Crocker, who, luckily, is also the main character. Lucy's husband, whose character is completely wooden, temporarily falls for a "punk." Ms. Preston has obviously never met a punk. You can spot a mile away that Lucy's woodland lover is planning to involve her in his PETA-wannabe animal rights stunt. This book is utterly predictable and its stereotyped characters are lame. Don't waste your time on this one.
