For all the "I can change him" girlies. No you can't, this isn't realistic. You deserve better.

Tate was a complete and utter door-mat.

The only word to describe Ugly Love is captivating. I waited more than five months for my turn to borrow a digital copy via @libby.app and I completely understand now why the wait list was so long. Following along with Tate and Miles no-strings-attached relationship is steamy and fun, but as we know, no-strings relationships always have invisible threads that tug at the hearts of those involved. I loved reading about Tate and Miles’ time together, but the history is devastating. Although I won’t say much too avoid spoilers, I also love the reoccurring symbolism of fluidity; just as water changes, so do we as people. Ugly Love is a story of love, growth, and heartbreak.
