Review: Isn't it Annoying

I downloaded this book free so the only thing that I really wasted was my time.  Based on the positive reviews I figured that it would be a nice diversion on a long commute home from work. However I spent my time slightly annoyed and perplexed to the point where I skimmed the book rather than read it fully.  I found the main character very... childish and silly... not to mention the many annoying times she said "Isn't it Romantic" when there was (***SPOILER***) NOTHING romantic about convincing a guy to pose as a fake husband then bulling the man into doing everything that she asked- even though he was doing her the favor. She was unsympathetic to his "allergy" to dogs and within one day already tried to change him into her picturesque dream guy. I found it to be a complete mystery that he would fall in love with her so quickly and that, with such an overbearing father, she would even bother pretending to have a husband just to make him happy.  What was supposed to be zany and humorous was silly and sophomoric. I am sorry that I did not listen to the negative review. So...was it awful? No. But I will not be reading another Ellen Fisher book.
