Review: What a Disappointment!
Rating: 2 out of 5

Maybe I read a different book than all the other Brazen fangirls? However, for a series that started out so promising, (who can forget the cringe-worthy opening scene in Wrong Bed, Right Guy?) Two Wrongs One Right was an enormous disappointment. Chelsea is so childish and unlikeable. The conflict between Chelsea and Nathan is paper thin and boring. The last 25% or so reads more like a rough draft than a polished novella, full of lots of telling and barely any showing.Here is what annoyed me most about Chelsea (and this may be a spoiler, so beware) in the eight years(!!) that she sat around pining away for Nathan it never occurred to her that once you enlist in the army you have to go where you are told, when you are told? No matter how much she begged and pleaded, when he got his deployment, he HAD to go. The army does not care about some spoiled, silly newlywed who lacks enough backbone to stand up to her overbearing family.Like petulant children they both keep tabs on each other, but neither of them has the stones to approach the other for EIGHT YEARS?In the other two books it was hinted that Nathan did something unforgivable to Chelsea. Even though he should have discussed his decision to enlist with Chelsea, what he did was not so terrible. Deserting her husband for no other reason than wounded pride however, was pretty awful. In eight years, she never, ever questioned whether she made the right decision? Chelsea had zero self-awareness and came across is selfish, spoiled, bratty and shallow. It's all about HER.I hope this was the end of this series, I don't think I can handle a book about the overbearing roommate Danielle, I'll have to skip it. Two stars because BOTH of them were celibate for the entire eight years. I might have thrown my kindle across the room if I had to endure another "woman didn't sleep with anyone while they were apart, hero banged everything in sight" trope.I don't know if there was pressure to meet a deadline, or what but someone should have spent more time making this a stronger story.
