Review: I cannot recommend someone paying for this without knowing what they are getting into

I recently downloaded 'Truths and Roses' by this author as a freebie. I'd read 2 of her other books and really liked them. My reviews can be read as proof of this. At the end of this book we are given the first instalment of the Nashville series at no extra cost. In my review I said that I'd wait for the series to be completed before buying. I hate cliffies and I absolutely hate instalment books. However I broke my rule and downloaded all 3 of the available instalments tonight because I was so intrigued by the first free instalment. This novella is the second instalment but it makes no sense without the first or the third at least. Now I know I'm about to read the 3rd but I have to warn people that they are going to be forced into buying the series if they want to know what happens.+++Spoiler+++I'm sick of this new strategy by publishers, it's unfair and it smacks of extortion. These few chapters are the middle part of a normal book and shouldn't be sold to an unsuspecting public. Consider yourself warned, if you've bought this instalment you are at least committed to the third book as nothing much happens in this novella aside from unrequited love and the H going back to his girlfriend, which really upset me. Who wants to read a romance where the H goes off with someone else and then the book ends?If I am not satisfied by the 3rd and 4th instalments, I will have no reservations about returning all 3 for a refund. I hate feeling ripped off.
