Being a huge fan of the book and I'm glad I read the book first by the way, I was quite disappointed with what was missed out in the film and 'changes' they had made to suit to film. Nevertheless overall I dont think they did too bad a job, Glenn Close was definitely as easy to despise as her character is in the book I think she did a sound job. In fact the entire cast did very well in their character roles. If you are thinking of watching this then I would recommend reading the book first, as I am not convinced the book would be picked up had you watched the film first. Also if you want to know what happened to the survivors, not being satisfied with the ending, check out the book 'The Boy on the Bridge'.

I dunno how I feel. 2.5...3 stars? Either way I liked the start, up until about the half way point, it was bad boy biker/mechanic and young, innocent baker coming together with an instant combustible attraction and I liked it quite a lot, though Jake's growling and controlling ways were annoying after a while.

It was the second half of the story I wasn't so keen on. The sort of rush to their relationship--the engagement--and the stalker. Now I know that we need some sort of dilemma in a story but it didn't work for me in this. And then who it actually turned out to be was a shock. I certainly didn't see it coming.

I liked Kase so I may have to read the second book in this series at some point.
