Although Jeremy and Katherine’s storyline was delightful, Elissa’s was enthralling. I found myself completely sucked in once I got the hang of the story switch. I couldn’t help but love her passion for life, no matter how much her father tried to snuff it out. With her love of theater and acting being her one main outlet, she begins to blossom even more when she discovers her gift for painting the world around her. The only thing that diminishes her joy in these arts is the fact that once she is done with school for the year, she will be forced into an arranged marriage with a cruel and malicious man.
