I must be a glutton for punishment or something because I did NOT like this authors first book and chose to read another. It was marginally better than the first, but not by much. This is a novella, not a full length novel so it makes sense for it to be short and sweet. Honestly? It was not short enough... As with Crashing Into You, it was well written, but this one just did not make any sense. It kept flipping back and forth between Maddie and Colin's POV. All fine and dandy, but it would cover something that had happened a few times between the two before finally moving on. This made it a bit repetitive and drawn out.Maddie and Colin apparently love each other even though they have barely exchanged two words. It seemed like the attraction was all based on looks and not so much on personality. With it being a novella, we never really learn a whole lot about either character. I think you learn more about Colin and he did have a rough past so his actions are somewhat understandable. Their boss is a random character that is portrayed in two different ways so it's hard to really know what she is like.Overall this was very mediocre. It seems like it would be a hot little story, but it's really just back and forth with a small amount of spice at the very end. As much as I did not like it, it is better than the author's first novel. I'm pretty nice so I may or may not read more by this author-only time will tell!
