Absolutely terrible!
I only finished it because I was hoping one of the main characters would die. (Spoiler alert: sadly they do not.)
The writing is so full of nonsense sentences strung together to make one big cliche. It’s as if this was written by a teenage girl with no real life experience, but a vivid imagination.
The two chaste sex scenes are almost embarrassing to read. And the whole book talks about this terrible thing that happened in Croatia that ends up to be just a kiss.
I’m not the typical rom-com target audience, but I can appreciate a well-written book of any genre. This was not that!
