Ok i gave this book 4 stars bc i have to give props to a book that i couldnt put down....but i do have to say it was a very frustrating book to read. First of all, what in the world is so special about this girl that this gorgeous guy just falls head over heels for her after meeting her for the first time?? Ok, accepted that, moved on, this guy is perfect...says and does everything girls can only dream of. Ok, a little over the top but ok its a book, not real life and thats 99% why i read romance novels to get away from real life. Ok, so everything is perfect and emma hops on a plane at the drop of a hat to aide her suicidal ex fiance? I wouldve flipped my s*** if i was Jackson! I thought Emma was irrational, stubborn, ridiculous at times...(youre going to throw away a perfect guy and your future for someone in your past?) i almost quit reading after that bc i was so mad at her...but i had to know what happened. So then the whole "phone call" happens and i seen that coming a mile away (Claire's made up story) i knew it wasnt true and i cant beleive it took til the end of the freakin book before they FINALLY figured it out!! OMG i was so frustrated everytime she would say "i know i need to ask jackson about the affair, but im not going to" The whole second half of the book basically went like this "i never want to see you again" "emma please let me up" "ok" (jackson rips her shirt off, offends her, nothing gets solved, back to square 1) ...."jackson i never want to see you again" (jackson conveniently runs into emma on the street, drags her back to his apt, rips her clothes off again) ..what is it with him doing that??? How degrading??? Anyways...back to square 1 ....again...repeat, repeat......anyways, i get frustrated when an entire conflict is based on miscommunication bc the characters are stubborn and irrational, if they would just say what the freak they need to say and get it out we could all just live happily ever after!!! Anyways...it definetly keeps your attention but you will pull your hair out.
