I found myself laughing out loud at this book. It was well written and great read. You cannot help but smile when you read this book. Highly recommend
My low rating on this book is basically for one reason only.
Haley has a serious problem with an eating disorder. The symptoms were described often. Gavin knew about it. He even knew it could kill. Yes, he asks her to get help but she never does! Then we have our happy ever after ending. REALLY! What is the author thinking? This is a problem that won’t just go away when you get the guy and it is deadly, causing permanent damage to your body in many different ways.
So, what does it tell the young woman reading this book that herself struggles with this problem? You don’t need to seek help?? It’s ok to run off all the calories you force yourself to take in. Or even better you can go empty your stomach in the toilet. The way the problem was handled make me angry.
was ok typical fodder
easy read, not stressful, pleasant characters and fun animal interaction
it was a ok book. I would buy it. I didn’t like how it went back and forth in time
Was a an entertaining book to read but not real deep.
This is a cute holiday book that is definitely cheesy but makes you smile! If you are a basset hound lover, this is a must read!
