This book, I assume, is meant to be a light hearted romantic read. Instead I found the love interest lead to the unhealthiest relationship I've read in a novel. The protagonist is basically a stalker. There is no relationship growth between the two romantic interests, and instead it is just there one day, with not reason as to why other than the obsession of the main character. Although the ending of the novel is sweet, I literally had to force myself to finish the read because I detest leaving books unfinished, and hoping with every page turn that it would get better.

The concept was great, the execution flawed, I hate to say. Will be donating this one off to the charity shops.
