Honestly, the name is unfortunate. It is like a 'kinda, sorta, nutshell' version of what the book is about. But considering that this is a fairly deep story, I think the title shortchanges the story. This title is a vestige of that time period when the Harlequin Presents titles were pretty ridiculou...

Rating 3.5 starsThe heroine was total self doubting martyr yet the book pulled me in. The heroine has been unloved all her life by her family and just found out that she is adopted so she goes off to find her mother and instead finds the hero.

Highly enjoyable and refreshing. It wasn't the typical formulaic plot of girl meets boy, boy isn't good enough, boy transforms, girl changes her mind and they get married. It took a long time for the female lead character to open up to a relationship with the hero. I love how she learned about him t...

3.5 starsThe female lead had too much of a chip on her shoulder. She was too judgmental without looking at the facts. I did like the male lead a lot though.

The male lead was nothing but a Bully. I didn't like him at all. Aline was getting emotionally abused not just by him but by his ex-girl friend/ partner as well.

The heroine feels like an ugly duckling because her sisters were beautiful and her mother always put her down, so for all purposes her family is her college room-mates. The heroine has always wanted to wait for the one but in the past year was duped by a charming man who turned out to be married, so...
