I have read many of Jennifer Armentrout’s YA books and
really enjoyed them so when I saw that she was making a foray into adult
romances I thought I would like them just as much…this did not happen. I am not ready to say that I wouldn’t like
any of her adult books, but this one didn’t come close the Lux novels. I’m willing to try again though.
Summary:
Madison is heading to her brother’s wedding. She is happy for him, but not looking forward
to seeing her brother’s best friend. She
has been in love with him forever. They live
in the same building and she sees him with his never ending stream of hussies
all the time. On top of this, they have
a rather awkward past sexual encounter that ended badly. On top of this, he is the best man and she is
the maid of honor so they are walking down the aisle together. On top of this (again!) there is a problem
with the reservations and Madison ends up having to stay in the same room with
Chase. You know what happens next!
My problem with this is that after the big climax, all the
problems arise from a misunderstanding.
You may or may not know this yet…but I hate when all the angst comes
from a stupid misunderstanding. Even at
the end, Madison doesn’t know how stupid she is because they never addressed
the misunderstanding. I stopped reading it at 81% because I got so annoyed, then when I picked it back up I realized the book ended at 86% so I felt silly!
Anyway, I when I
went to Amazon to look for this title to add my review, I saw another book by
J. Lynn and bought that right away. I
can’t remember what it is called but it looks interesting. It is an adult installment in the Lux novels,
but it is about an Arum as the hero!
Hmmm…
