2 EVERYBODY LOVED IT BUT ME STARS
NO IT DID NOT WORK FOR ME!
Basically, this was me the entire book..

Well, I will freely admit that I am NOT the intended audience for this one. This is very clear to me now.
PLEASE EXCUSE THE SPOILER RANT BELOW!
To say I mostly hated this book would be putting it mildly.
It was very Young adult with physical abuse, verbal abuse, bullying, humiliation, random sexual hookup, and revenge f*cks on ex-boyfriend bed and blackmailing mom and pop and not to mention threatening the very existence of her sick sister.
Honestly, this book had all the crazy coming out to play. With these characters having grown up together, and now this story which is taking place 10 years later but don't worry we do get flashbacks. (Which I personally hate).
The storyline might have really worked for me here if the hero had not been such a giant DICK!

And this was all in the name of messed up love/hate or whatever the f*ck you call what that was!

(view spoiler)
Now these are just my views and they are of the very unpopular variety, so take it or leave it.
This is just how the book made me feel.
The writing was well done and the story captivating but not enough to win a 5 star review in my very modest opinion.
Safety: not safe. She has sex with his friend and he has sex with everything else, lol. Also, the hero kisses her sister and he makes out with another woman after they are together.
Also, forgot to give a shout out to everyone (you know who you are) who sent me messages encouraging me to continue reading and Dilek for the book recommendation. It didn't work for me this time but it might the next.
And a special Thanks to Carvanz for my second buddy read of 2017. It's nice to find someone who sees things the way you do....oh and who can read at my speed.
Thanks all and Happy reading! <3 xoxo["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>["br"]>

Yes it's not for me and if it wasn't for the promise of a great grovel... guess there are something I find unforgivable.

Thanks and I really wanted this one to work for me. It's why I kept reading. Sadly it didn't :(( xx

Yes I guess I am not as forgiving as the next person Kate :)) lol

I guess it's a matter of opinion. Just I don't find it romantic. It was hard to finish but I'm glad I did. . At least now I know for sure. .


If you do read it I would be interested in your thoughts ;-)






At least I finished it. I am pretty proud that I was able to do this. Thanks in part to your kind words of encouragement <3 xoxo




And I totally appreciate your detailed explanations about what frustrated you so that this review will be a kind of warning for readers that would also be disturbed by all that... Great review!
Sorry again :((((

I didn't write this in my review but I was more upset that he didn't stop his friend from getting together with the heroine than anything else. It bothered me, GREATLY. For me an alpha would not be able to watch while his woman F*ck another. That's just me.
Thanks for the recommendation and I have recommended books that others have hated also I know you feel but don't feel bad.
It's all good :)) I am really good about it. Plus side this author can write! Seriously I have never had such strong emotions for a book in a long time. Actually all year. Hehe

Oh, thank you for not being mad at me, darling :))) And yes, what bothered me most in the book was also the way he let Dean have her. He should have claimed her way too earlier! Stupid dick!

Beside I now know I have some really amazing and supportive friends on ŷ. Something good came out of it for me anyways. Plus all books are subjective. My husband loves reading comic books and science fiction....I say HELL NO but he loves it. So it's always subjective.

Beside I now kno..."
Yes, it definitely is subjective, my dear! And the chemistry... right about that too. Sometimes, one word or one move of the hero or heroine makes all the change for me!
Hope our next reads will be better for us !

Well i call it like I see it. He was the worst ever period!

Glad you enjoyed this book Bgurl. It just wasn't for me. I know I am completely out of the loop on this book. But they can't all work for you now can they?
