Maybe it's because I hate drama and have never gotten into reality tv and watching other peoples drama unfold, or maybe it's because I'm naive enough to believe that this story is just too far-fetched...but the more I read this book, the more I just wanted it to end so that maybe some good comes of it. I will highlight the style of writing was enticing and kept me interested, but that's about it... Definitely left me feeling good about my relationship though :)

Excellent book. It was a little slow for me in the beginning but it really picks up once you get to the twist. The two main characters are so well written. I'm definitely checking out her other books since this is the first I have read from her.
