I’m not a fan of your typical cheesy romance. You know the kind, the ones where you can predict almost every aspect of the story. Where everything happens like a fairy tale. C.M. Stunich offers a refreshing twist on a modern day adult romance.
The main character, Never, is a troubled girl. The book keeps you guessing as to why this woman has so many issues. Her story unravels a little at a time thanks to a character named Ty McCabe. Ty has some inner demons of his own. Each character in the book has their own unique spice they add to the story. Even Never’s roommate seems to help change the story at times. Sometimes for the better sometimes for worse.
As I was reading this book I felt a number of emotions. For me, as much as I wanted have a happy ending there was an equal amount of times I just wanted slap her and say “Quit wallowing in you own pity and move on with life”. For a short while in the story you really didn’t know if Ty was a a good guy or bad guy. There was also at least one point of confusion and yet relief when I finally found out Never’s sorted history but at the same time I still didn’t quite understand why she hated her dad so much. OR…did she really? Still not sure about that one but you can be the judge for yourself.
All in all, I enjoyed this read. It was a nice “path less traveled” in the adult romance genre. This is definitely an adult book though due to language and situations. If you’re looking for a kind of rough around the edge, romance, this is the one for you.
