I thought it a creative idea but didn't reaching its own potential.

This has to be in my TOP FIVE BOOKS...number one being Redeeming Love lol. I LOVED the movie, but it was NOT the book! Had I not read the book first I would have been fine, but reading this THEN seeing the movie...just TOTALLY different lol. I TOTALLY agree with you.

They seemed to come out of nowhere and didn't fit with the rest of the language of the book. Also, the descriptions of se*ual acts and words was almost enough to make me put the book down. Could she not have thought of other words to use than such vulgar ones? I am going to go through the book and cover the nasty words and then maybe I will read it again. jmtc :) I did enjoy the book but found her use of vulgarities completely pointless.

I don't normally like soppy romance stories, but you have made this one sound totally intriguing. When our library opens I have to call and see if they have this book.

It does have some language, though, so readers, be cautioned. I'm excited to see the movie, but I could tell, even from the previews, that it would be way different from the book.
