I tried so hard to like this book! But omg, it was awful!!!! This book should have been right up my alley, but it didn't have one redeemable quality, except maybe Edward. His story seems compelling, and I cared more about him than anyone else. But even still, I just couldn't stand the rest of the characters. Chantal was disgusting, and so was William! Lane was a douche who didn't deserve Lizzie. And Lizzie was such a doormat!! I get she still loved Lane and love like that is hard to let go of, but she just rolled over for him and let him back in with very little fight! If the characters weren't bad enough, the writing itself was awful. How much drama did she need to fit into a 400-page book? Choose one or two things and write it well! Not fill the book with so much drama and horrible characters that it eclipses everything. I normally love books with drama and second chance romances, but this one wasn't done well. It was not written with compelling characters nor a storyline that made any sense. It felt like the author threw out all the abuses and bad things and thought that it made a novel 😔 I'm so disappointed with this book!!
