Review: Okay, it was cheesy

It was still an easy read.  It was predictable, but the banter between Sierra and Marc was pretty amusing.  I liked the secondary characters, too.  However, there were several things that did bother me about this.  Number one-the Britishisms that pepper it. Serviette for napkin, car bonnet for hood of a car, and car park for parking lot to name a few.  If you want to use these expressions, set this in a town in Great Britain, not California.  They just don't talk like that here. The ending was kind of abrupt.  I got the feeling the author said, "okay, everyone suffered, let's just end this." The other thing that bothered me was the timing. Most of it was supposed to take place over a week in late November, early December.  Yet Marc got in the habit of going to Sierra's for coffee every night.  Most nights there was something else going on.  When was there time?  Then there was the "summer storm" they got caught in.  Maybe this should be set in Australia, since that is where it is Christmas in summer? It was a cute read, just don't expect too much.
