Finally the drama at the end and Mal’s freak out, the things he said, and his decisions were just ridiculous. The whole premise seemed a bit awkward and unnecessary, and the drama of faking didn’t seem to be enough to base a story on. Actually, all the female characters weren’t likeable. Paul is portrayed as overwhelmed by her beauty, and her liking being adored by him despite his “thinning hair”. She was petty and shallow, and we were supposed to like her? The only “redeeming” feature the authors gave was that she was pretty. However, this book had too many annoying things. She seems to have a loyal following that leave over inflated positive reviews so it’s always difficult to really gauge how good a book of hers is. This book left me with a curled lip and resentment that I wasted so many hours on it.This book would have been heading towards a typical 3 star ok read which is what I usually give Lucy Lennox stories, with their small town characters and slightly cringeworthy humour. Nasal voice and annoying laugh, and awkward sounding humour. How it got resolved just didn’t work for me either. It’s like the authors just didn’t know how to make the ups and downs in this book.
