I realized that you really have to wise up when you are reading some of the review about the book that you are reading.  In the case of this book, I have read some negative reviews but ignored them and decided to proceed and read.  I don't want to be judgmental of the book and see what my own opinion would turn out to be.The book may have started off very well.  Ivy appeared to be the damsel in distress in the eyes of Jake but learned later on that he was entirely wrong.  There were a lot of sweet and romantic moments between the two which solidify the intensity of their feelings for each other.But that is all there is to it.  It seems there were a lot to be desired on the story but the author opted to cut it short.  Ivy and Jake know how they stand on their respective jobs are but there was no clear discussion between these two on how they would move forward.  There was no mention of how each sees the future with the other one on it.  The ending was so abrupt and what made it worse was it was so figuratively made instead of an outright romantic ending.  Jake showed a closet to Ivy meaning to show her that he is making some room where she could put her things on it.  You will already be disappointed at this stage and will not realize immediately that Jake meant for Ivy to move in with him to start a future.  As you turn the next page and find out that is the end of Jake and Ivy's story, more questions came up, like do they really end up together?  There was an implied idea of moving together but no engagement whatsoever.Read at your own risk.
