Unrealistic

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 28 avril 2021

Achat vérifié

There really is very little about this book that is realistic. I appreciate books are meant to be an escapism from real life but this one isn't an escapism is far from it.
Ellery and Connor despite being adults behave like children back and forth between petty little arguments. Neither character is very relatable.
Add in that Ellery has cancer - the type is never specified - but doesn't immediately seek treatment, then she decides to but even that is unrealistic, then after 1 round decides nah its not for me let's bugger off to California to join a medicine trial.... hmm.

Such a shame really because the storyline albeit weak does work and it could be an enjoyable read.

With a bit of an overhaul this would be a great read and one I feel could be read again and again. But for me currently there is nothing about this book that is relatable or realistic and certainly not worth paying for the 2nd book for.

Heart renching story, total rollercoaster, Ellery is a fiesty character that loves hard, Connor is a alpha male, tissues were needed but there is also some laugh out loud moments. Not sure where the story is going as at the end there's the prologue ands about Connor previous relationship. This is the first book I have read by Sandi Lynn really enjoyed it.

Another typical Sandi Lynn Book

Sandi Lynn’s books usually have a common theme, rich handsome man meets beautiful woman they eventually fall in love. Obviously there’s more to the book and I enjoyed this story more than some others I’ve read by this author. Ellery and Connor meet in unusual circumstances and quickly become a couple but Ellery has a secret that threatens to tear them apart. Well worth a read.

good storyline

I enjoyed Elle and Connor's story, they overcame a lot of lows, had some great highs, there were some funny moments but on the whole it was fairly sombre.

We first meet Elle after her long term term boyfriend Kyle left her, we didn't know why at the time, but it was the best thing that happened. I thought how odd it was at the time but he had got in touch with Peyton, who I loved to bits, to keep an eye on Elle.

Peyton was a breath of fresh air, crazy chick. but had a huge heart of gold. She really loved Elle, and would do anything to help her friend.

Elle had had a really hard 23 years, loosing her mom aged 6, then her dad aged 18! and needed some luck in her life, but she was always there to help people out, she was a good samaratian had a beautiful heart.

So when she meets Connor in the club, being thrown out drunk, she helped him back to his apartment, got him inside and put him to bed. He meets her in the morning after giving her the rules speak, I giggled at this, she came back with a great answer she was really ballsy. She didn't take any of his CEO demanding nonsense.

Elle gets some bad news and has to go back to her home town, she goes to a family funeral which brings back memories, when she's had enough of hearing stories she stands up for herself, with Connor for support they get away from thge funeral, only for Kyle to show up and throw their lives in turmoil. The secrets start to unravel, Connor finds out Elle has been harbouring a big secret, she is sick really sick. He runs leaving her to get herself home. They spend time apart, but make their way back to each other, he has lived with a secret of his own, and won't let anyone in, has meaningless sex with women, not wanting a relationship until he meets Elle.

She runs again, but this time she goes out of state, to get treatment, he finds her again and goes with her whilst she has treatment, they really do love each other and begin to work on their future. A really tough storyline, but written with compasdion , alright there might be some typo's but that didn't detract from the heartfelt storyline.

Great stand alone story - don't bother with the other books in this 'trilogy' as it is not a trilogy in the usual sense

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 28 octobre 2013

Yes its the usual billionaire meets younger woman and they can't be apart. But it has a different storyline which I am not going to mention as I don't wish to spoil it. This is a brilliant book and I thoroughly recommend it.

The characters are likeable and I empathised with both, the angst got a little too much midway through the book but then it got back on track and altogether was a fab read.

Please note, although this is a 'trilogy' the first book is a complete story and in my opinion it would not be worth reading books 2 and 3. Book 2 is the same story from his POV. Book 3 just continues 'their story' - I don't feel the need to read this as their story is complete in book 1.

I suspect that this book was originally written as a stand-alone but the author has decided to milk the cash cow! Please don't be put off or assume I didn't like the book by this comment as I did really like the story. I would look for others by the same author but I don't need to read any more about Connor and Ellery as their story is complete.

Great story line ideas but writing style odd

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 3 juillet 2013

Achat vérifié

The story line and characters were really appealing but the writing felt very two-dimensional and superficial. It lacked any emotional depth (and I agree the proof reading and editing was lacking)

Connor and Ellery and their individual personal complexities could have made for a really gripping read that lasted well over three books but it just didn't happen. Aspects of their characters were mentioned but not explored in any great depth. Events were often written as 'they went there, did that and went home' without any exploration of impacts on each other, feelings, ramifications etc. The ending was positively rushed - the passage of months within a few pages? Even other side characters flitted in and out with little character development.

The fact that book 2 is a rehash of the same story from Connor's perspective would have been disappointing if it hadn't actually been a better read than book 1, at least initially, giving more exploration of feelings and thoughts, but unfortunately even that tailed off by half way through.

A good idea story and likeable characters for sure but the author's writing style for a storyline of this sort intended as a trilogy needs a heck of a lot of development if readers aren't to feel that they've eaten a fresh-air sandwich at the end; empty and still hungry.

Potentially good but .........

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 3 mars 2013

Really wanted to like this book especially based on the reviews but it just didn't hit the mark for me. Potentially a really good story but the writing didn't flow conversations felt wooden, immature and without the natural flow making it difficult to really buy into the characters, plot or story. There were times i was cringing whilst reading conversations, the writing just tried too hard to sound remotely realistic and i really didn't fall in love with the selfish drama queen Ellery. I agree with other reviews the story was emotional but that was due to the subject matter rather than the content.

I read a lot but really sorry to say I have struggled to finish this, however i would try another book by this author in the future as the story was there so hope after this first book the delivery will only get better.

Meeehhh

Go to say, looking at the reviews i was expecting something better. The book was a bit fast paced and you didn't really get to know the characters very well even tho you knew their secrets, there just wasn't a connection. I thought Elle's and Connors relationship went from 0-60. One minute Connor was emphasizing the word friends and how he didn't want a relationship and then the next minute they were making love and declaring their undying love. However i did enjoy Ells attitude and she was fun when she was happy. The ONE chapter from Connors point of view was completely useless also and i did not understand why the writer would put it there. At the end it also seemed that the writer skipped important parts of the story and just wrote the epilogue just so there would be an ending. I go to also say, beating cancer three times doesn't seem very realistic either. So over all not so great.

Need lots of editing

.5 stars for the idea behind this story only. Certainly not the writing itself. It's upsetting, as this has the potential to be a good book.

This book needs a serious amount of decent editing. The use of language made it had to read and I constantly had to backtrack for it to make sense.

Besides who lightly smiles or just knows what someone is thinking.

Both characters are wholly immature. They spend they entire book, yelling at each other, smiling at each other, then running out.

Ellery herself is the most self absorbed, self entered brat I have every read, and how many people can one author have killed off in someone's already miserable life.

On the whole this book is very disappointing. Most of the time I was grappling with myself NOT to throw my kindle away with frustration

A really disappointingly awful book

Commenté au Royaume-Uni le 5 mars 2013

Achat vérifié

I don't like to give a negative review but this book was absolutely terrible. In my opinion it was really badly written. The main female character was awful with no depth and extremely unlikable although I don't think this is what the author intended. There is no way that the main male character could fall for her as written in the book. I felt this book read like it was thrown together, the love scenes were laughable although I think they were supposed to be romantic. I am sorry I paid money for this book and wouldn't dream of reading any more from this author. Giving it one star is over generous.
