Review: A bad romance with no story

Okay, how anyone gave this 5 stars is quite literally beyond me.  First, there's no real story here.  The first half of the book is a cloying and somewhat insipid (and incredibly arbitrary) romance between a couple of characters with no real personality.  It was one of those "saw each other across a crowded room and immediately began seeing into each other's soul" nonsense that some writers go to instead of actually developing the relationship.  So if you want to read some decent sapphic erotica, then you can read the first half of the book and then stop.  After that is a series of random and rather unexciting events with some pretty canned and hokey dialogue leading up to a non-climactic conclusion . . . except it's not quite over.  The reader then has to get through some more attempts at romantic dialogue and a bunch of "If you hurt her, we'll hurt you back" nonsense that takes way too long and felt repetitive.  I really wish I could find something about this book to point out as being positive, but there's just nothing there.
