The Escape

2.5 stars. I read this for a Romance seminar I'm taking in college. It was rather slow and didn't draw me in as the other romances we've read (which were admittedly problematic as far as romances go, but made for quicker and more enticing reads). I liked Ben and Samantha, but nothing about their characters really made me root for them. It was all around mediocre.
