Only You

rating: 1.5

The only reason that I even read this book in the first place was because it was free for my Kindle. So, really, I guess I shouldn't be too hard on it.

But, really. If you're going to write a romance novel, write a romance novel.

Don't try to turn a trashy romance (complete with terrible dialogue and massively predictable plot) into something fit for your kids.

What's the point in that? Seriously.

I just don't get it.

The plot was predictable. So much so that I could have written the book myself after having read only the first two chapters.

The dialogue was disgustingly romance-like, but the actions didn't support it.

I'm pretty sure that the author was confused.

and, the worst thing, is that there are actually some points that could have been unique and intriguing. But no. The whole thing is just ugh.
