It started so well then fizzled out...*** there may be spoilers ***The first chapters were interesting. Even though the premise is so cliche --- secretary falls in love with rich boss --- the book started well. Then we find out from H's POV that he likes the h too. So that's cool. But of course h is portrayed as this super naive 20+ virgin, totally unaware of her own attraction.Anyway, H makes his moves. There is the typical drunken h scene. They get into a relationship. They move in together. They fall in love. H proposes to h. And h turns him down because *** ok, I won't spoil it too much! ***So, sounds almost good, right, even though this premise has been done 500 times we can suspend disbelief. The problem lies in the way it was written. In the last few chapters, there is no emotion to the way the author wrote the scenes. The lack of emotion is so noticeable such that you don't really feel the angst and suffering of h. The big reveal was too clinical. It just ruined the ending for me. There were also some threads to the story that appear to be hanging out there. It almost feels like the author started out so passionately and then just wanted to get it over with near the end.For the price it's sold for, it's overpriced. Wait until it's down to a dollar. Better yet, when it's free.
