DNF'd at the 20% mark
Unfortunately I just couldn't find myself caring for the characters, the story, or the writing.
My major issue with it was the writing, it simply didn't fit the genre of the book. I felt like I was reading 19th century lit at times, with phrases like:
Retiring from a long days work...
My previous bar attendant of three years had left a week ago in migration to London...
'Twas the prime reason I moved...
Not what I really expect in reading a contemporary romance.
This was just not the book for me, though others might enjoy it.
Maybe I'll try to go back to it when I'd be in a mood for something like this, though I doubt it.
