Collide by Gail McHugh
5.0
4.5 stars! This story hooked me in. There were times I definitely didn't want to put it down. So the plot was strong enough to keep me interested. I think the characters were well written and there was a good amount of description throughout the book to draw me in.
The story was a little frustrating at times. Of course I thought Dillon was an ass and Emily was stupid to stay latched to him, despite her reasons for doing so.
Gavin was the right amount of fun, sexy, and adorable to fall in love with. That only added to my infuriation with Emily.
Gail McHugh did an excellent job balancing the believability of the unfortunate love triangle. Everyone wants the characters to be perfect and to recognize what we see as being obvious, but in real life sometimes it isn't that plain to see. Emily feels indebted to Dillon and that has (infuriatingly) affected her common sense.
I followed the narrative easily enough, but I could see how some people may have issues with the third person POV (head)jumping between Emily and Gavin too often in a single chapter.
Overall, great read :)
