Review: Too many inconsistencies ruined this book
Rating: 1 out of 5

First of all the book has a little over a hundred pages, so the meeting between Seth and Ava should not have been so rushed. He bumped into her and literally within seconds they were going to lunch and in a few more seconds she was storming out of the restaurant angered by his assumptions about her. There were other scenes that could have been eliminated to make this scene longer because at his point he just came off looking like a first class jerk. And when he suddenly started checking on her, concerned for her welfare, it made no sense because they had no relationship.Secondly, we were told many, MANY times she was "opening a lingerie store" in a "small town" which made me wonder how a small town could sustain a lingerie store? Then we were told that there was a petition a foot and people were going to run her out of town! And yet not one townsfolk approached her about this big bad lingerie store with sex toys in the back room. Don't cha think you'd check into something like that BEFORE you put money into your store?! Yet she worried about it. At one point, the sheriff admitted that no one had even signed the petition.Other inconsistencies were downright laughable. Like when the sheriff had a 'no contact' order out against him and Ava. She comes to his house and he sees her and thinks "why is she here? she knows i have a no contact order' so he opens the door and LETS HER IN. Sherlock Holmes he ain't. She starts to make out with him and he reminds her of the no contact order and sends her home. The next night while STILL under the no contact order, he goes to her house and has sex with her. Oy. Glad he's not the sheriff in my town, he doesn't even follow the law.At one point Ava was responding to texts from an ex who physically abused her. "I hope you have a nice life..." Why would you care?! I found it odd that the author went with physical abuse from her last ex and yet had Ava jump right into flirting with Seth the minute she met him. I would think that just getting out of a bad, five year relationship you might be a bit reluctant to trust another man.Ava was home one day in her 'tiny cotton shorts and a cami tank top'. There's a knock on her door and she thinks, "Maybe it was Jace or Claire (husband and wife) wanting to see if they could do the renovations next door." So she answers the door. She opens the door and sees it's the sheriff and she feels self-conscious thinking she should have put on a robe, "After all it could have been Claire or her husband on the other side of the door." *bangs head against keyboard*
