Negative Positive
Title: It could have been so good....
Review: This book started out great, the first half does a good job of setting up the story. The interaction between the two main characters is funny and romantic, and then it takes a turn for the terrible. At every opportunity for the characters to grow and develop along with a premise that could have been very interesting, the author plunges the characters into more hateful acts. Instead of exploring a developing relationship between two people at cross purposes, this becomes a story of a sick psychotic love obsession.In a romance novel the lovers have to be someone worth winning, not someone that you are sorry they got stuck with. In true Jane Eyre style, by the end of the book you can't stand the selfish, stuck-up, "heroine" who knows whats right but can't do it, and you feel so disgustingly sorry for and disappointed in the ruined "hero" that you put the book down feeling sick. Worse, you feel as though you wasted your time.
