Critical reception

Bob Cannon of New Country magazine gave the debut album two-and-a-half stars out of five, saying that both siblings had strong voices that "[set] off sparks" on the songs with shared lead vocals, but that the rest of the songs were "solo numbers in country pop arrangements". [1] Neil Pond of Country America was more favorable, saying that the album was "ever more versatile" because of the alternating male and female vocals. [2]
