Interesting read, though it did swing between painfully predictable and then actual surprises.  You will be yelling at the main character for being an idiot, but you like her anyways.

The kind of romance that you have to be okay with ignoring some of the horrible things all the characters have done to each other.

It gives Beauty and the Beast vibes, but interesting enough to keep reading.
