Review: WEAK  STORY
Rating: 2 out of 5

After readingAll the Wrong Reasonswhich was good. I had hoped that this would be of a similar standard. This was okay, but it needed something a little more substantial plot wise.Taylor is a reporter on the local newspaper. She is fed up with covering stories that nobody else wants. Then her editor tells her she is to interview a baseball player, it just so happens that Taylor went to high school with this guy, and they have history. Not good history, in fact it's really bad. So there's no way she wants to do the interview. But needs must when the devil drives, and she needs her job.Brady had initially turned down the interview, but when he discovered Taylor was a reporter on the paper, he agreed provided that she did the interviewing. He knew he had done her wrong. He had always felt guilty, and saw that this was going to give him a chance to explain and apologise.Normally when the hero has committed a past sin against the heroine, it usually turns out to be not that bad, I wish I could say the same here. What he did was really bad. His explanation wasn't up to much either, "he did it because he was bored"! All of this happened six years ago, I didn't think that a guy who was known for his womanising would have obsessed over what he had done so long ago. Taylor I understood her not letting it go. At first Taylor doesn't want to trust Brady. But gradually things improve and they get together. After that the author tried to inject some angst into this. By putting Brady in a situation that would make him look bad when it was revealed. But his excuse for that wasn't credible either. Lets face it if your'e out somewhere, and a situation starts happening and won't go away, you get up and leave right? You don't stay and let it continue. But maybe that's just me. So the the plot just felt forced to me.Plus I just wasn't feeling the love between Brady and Taylor. Overall the characters were not believable, especially Brady.
