Sera Summers is a burnt out
anthropologist looking for a change of pace. Deciding to
write a travel book in a small island town, she books her
flight. She does not expect to feel at home when she
arrives and she certainly did not expect to find herself
attracted to two very different men. Will she pick the
loveable Cristian, or the temperamental Manuel?
Along the Hibiscus Path had a good baseline
for a story. The fairytale idea of going on a working
vacation and meeting the love of your life made me pick it
up. Unfortunately, bland characters and bad chemistry
between the main characters made it impossible for me to
believe that Sera would pick either man. I actually rooted
for the other guy for a bit because he was more interesting
even though the picked guy was nicer. I never quite
understood the reason that Manuel did not want Sera to write
her book, or why his grandmother was a secret. In the end,
it was just disappointing and I hoped that a third better
guy would come along. |
