- I feel bad giving this book a low rating, especially due to the subject matter.... BUT... it was too much for me. This would have worked better if it wasn't sold as a romance maybe??? I don't think the covers, nor does the description set you up for the sheer amount of angst, pain, and drama in this story. This was a bit too deep for a simple romance. And I hated the ending, when she had her showdown with the jerk. I am glad she saved herself but really, using every single trick you learned was just too much. I am not going to question why she handled things that way, because I do think that gets complicated. I will just complain about how it ended very much like that old jennifer lopez movie that I hated. She was also in an abusive relationship and in the final act also got to use every single trick she learned. It would have been good if she would have thought to record their interactions or at least keep a personal collection of the harassment she received from the dude. Also, would have liked to see her mace the guy. That doesn't have anything to do with her journey, I just wanted him to feel the pain bit longer. While this has romance in it, it's really not.
- Looking for that new book boyfriend, strong female protagonist, funny banter, or that sexy feeling that will make you blush (I know I did 🙈)...... Go Get A Copy Asap Overall : Fast-paced, easy to read with likable characters, friendships with the banter that got me LOL. Trigger Warning: Abusive ex partner and Stalking .
