Critical reception
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic rated the album three stars out of five, describing Coffey as "a more approachable Faith Hill— her polished country-pop is every bit as urbane, yet it doesn't feel as glamorous."[3] Country Standard Time reviewer Jeffrey B. Remz compared her vocals to those of Sara Evans, saying that Coffey's voice was "strong [and] full-bodied" but added that he thought the album lacked a sense of identity.[4] Ray Waddell of Billboard gave it a mostly favorable review, praising Coffey's vocals, although he did note "Whatever It Takes" and the "Breathe-wannabe" title track as unmemorable. He ended his review by saying, "Producer Dann Huff paints a vibrant sonic picture, and Coffey definitely has the goods, particularly when she's allowed to take a chance here and there."[5]
