Review: Disappointing: Final part to Costa Living - so not worth it.

I had been a fan of Mathew Ortiz and have all the Kindle Edition books he has written. Up until Costa Living I was quite happy with the books. But with Costa Living he cut the story in half.  I said I wouldn't buy the second book in the serialised story but I caved to find out what happened.  As I said with that review it was a good paced story but it ended abruptly and you were forced to pay another $3 to get the second half.  In all the two books combined are about 100 pages for $6.  Part two is definitely not worth the money.  This is actually the worst book Mathew Ortiz has put out.  It is rushed, predictable for most of it and incongruous the rest of it.  Part one (Costa Living) had been building up a bit but part two just jumped around with "I love you" and "I should have known not to trust you" and "I love you again/still". Got to the point I stopped reading it - it was just sentimental mush.  I like a love story people, not just words smooshed on a page so I will buy it to see what happens next (which I unfortunately did).  It seems syrupy sentimental and ill conceived to me. What happened to the promise this author had shown in Renovating Love and the Cookies series?  I should have stuck to my indignant guns and saved the purchase price!!!
