Hard to Handle by K. Bromberg

3.0

2.5* This book left me confused. For me 3*'s is a pretty good rating, but that's not reflective of the romance in this book. For much of the book, the talking in circles, the push pull and the bickering gave me a headache. I couldn't make sense of it all, I didn't feel the connection. Both the H and the h had issues. I didn't take to the h so my sympathy for her was minimal. On the other hand there was something pretty raw about that portrayal of the H's parental issues, it grabbed my heart and never let go. It touched a nerve, probably because I'm seeing someone close to me struggle on this issue. Strip away the setting, the romance, plot line and at the core a child, no matter their age, strives to meet parental expectations for their approval was painfully reflected.
