Review: Dysfunctional Lovers
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 01 8, 2012
I gave it three stars because it is a well written book, the characters are so well-developed that I found the heroine (Rose) so annoying. And that is also the reason why I cannot give this book a higher rating. Rose and Giovanni are very dysfunctional as lovers that I actually wanted them to go their separate ways in the end instead of a happy ending.***SPOILER ALERT***Goodness gracious, how can a wife (Rose) hide from her husband (Giovanni) two very horrendous things that happened to her. Her reasons were revealed early on, but the reasons were very flimsy. In short, Rose did not earn the right to sacrifice anything because of love.As for Giovanni, well... he was described almost as a cliche Italian man. Gosh, with the exception that Giovanni was described as very handsome (which is always expected in a romance novel), very rich and a great lover, his chauvanistic characteristics as written by the author can be considered an insult to Italian men.
