Let me first say that I in no way receive pleasure from leaving a negative review. I would rather read a great book and not waste my time on the ones that are not so great.I loved 'Some Like It Charming' and was so excited to read the second book in this series. Unfortunately I was very disappointed.This couple was so far out in left field that I had trouble following the story and who was doing what. They were both immature and clueless, Maggie more so than Cole. Some of the language was a bit much, bordering on crude making it just raw sex instead of making love. Neither had much self control but they each sure wanted to be in the driver's seat.I also don't understand the continual one-up-man-ship. Ex: She showed up at his home and woke him up at 5am one day. So a day or two later he showed up at her house around 4am, I think. Each of them spent most of the book making sure everything was always even.In my opinion, this was not really a love story. It was a story about a man who was willing to destroy people without a second thought regardless of the consequences. He lied, he blackmailed, his word was no good, all he thought about was money and sex and I got so very tired of reading about how much he wanted her. She wanted him too and she was like concrete, immoveable, not giving in. But after she did give in, there were times, that as hard as she was, she gave in much too quickly.I felt exhausted after I finished this book. When I read, I like to have a feel good moment at the end of a book, but all I felt was agitated, frustration, anger, and wondered how two people could be so stupid and waste so many years because their fathers were enemies.
