Review: Book Club Pick That Failed
Rating: 2 out of 5
Date: 03 4, 2014
This was the choice for our book club this month and I thought it sounded like something I would have liked. I was wrong. The book has great potential but it's missing everything that is important to me in a book. I don't want to sound harsh because maybe this was a first attempt at writing; but if I read the word "such" again I may scream! "Such" was used at least one time in nine out of every ten pages.Secondly, what the hell is wrong with Diona? This guy has held you hostage on an island! Sure it's paradise but he still held her there against your will. And for what? To prevent his brother from marrying this girl??? But it seems the only thing that mattered to her is the tingles she gets between her legs at his appearance! She even goes as far as to give him her V card?!?!?!? A man she knows NOTHING about, who believes she is someone she isn't, and who has KIDNAPPED her??? What the hell?Nikias is described as a smart, intuitive, sharp business man. However, he doesn't even know his brother's fiancé's name prior to kidnapping her? He investigates her location however, doesn't know anything about the woman he is trying to keep from his brother? Completely unrealistic.I never felt the chemistry between Diona and Nkias. I was bored throughout the entire book and disappointed
