Do you think I need a shelf for stupid and/or unclear plot? this book would fit right there. Who would do the stuff this hero does to a 16 or so year old girl? Is the time line wonky or did he really follow a teenager he had only met one time into her bedroom after necking with her sister in the hall and then proceed to smirkily inform her that he knew she wanted him. He's a visiting professor at some college. Eww.

Besides that sort of thing, there were too many flashbacks and those flashbacks only dropped hints of the whole situation. I'm spending too much time going WTF is happening.

And the hero was an arrogant ass and a weak wimp who played games. Just no.

Does anyone want this book? 'Cuz it's free to a good home or even an abusive one, I just don't care. ;-)… (lisätietoja)
