*This Book Was Given To Me By The Author In Exchange For An Honest Review*Hmmm where to start. From the synopsis I thought I had a pretty good idea how this story was going to go and I was OK with that. I figured it would be a quick, light, read and would go one of three ways, I would love it, I would hate it, or it was just be kind of in the middle.Well I was wrong. This book started out with a cute premise that for me quickly deteriorated as the story unfolded with some parts being so unrealistic I could feel the star rating dropping as I read to where by about halfway through I was set to give it a 3 star rating and comment that whilst the potential was there it just didn't work for me but as a reviewer I always try to read to the end and in this case I was both glad, and irritated (at the same time) that I had.The second half of the book was nothing I was expecting from the description given. Without spoilers I will suggest that anyone reading has Kleenex on hand. The story deepens and takes some unexpected turns, and this part was really well written. It was heartfelt and touching and kept me totally connected. If the first half had been written even half as well it probably would have edged up to 5 stars.I will say though that I don't really like this style of book (not the Erotica but the direction the book ended up going into). I would definitely recommend that the author add a secondary category of Contemporary Romance to it. I almost felt like taking away the 4th star just because I would definitely have avoided picking up the review had I any idea what was going to happen because whilst there are a huge number of readers out there that would adore it ...... I would have passed.Overall this was a great debut novella from a new author. Would I read her again? I think I would need some clarification before picking it up. For those that love a good contemporary romance with a dash of steam this one would be for you.V""V
