One of my friends found this in Borders recently, intrigued by the title, and then gave it to me. I ended up stuck waiting for a plane and it was the only thing left to read.
It is awful!
It is so bad. I think the author was aiming for funny, but failed badly. funny. Mary-Sue main character, bad cliches, and the most annoying ending I have read for ages. Nearly as bad as the terrible Julia Quinn hysterical epic she lent.
I was so traumatised by reading those two in a row, I started back on gory serial killer thrillers.
I need to stay away from the bad romance fic, it fries my brain. OTOH, then when I do go back to my nice proper fantasy epics, it makes me appreciate the good writing.
I have just donated both of them to Ofxam. Something good shall come of them yet!
