Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. This is a good example of cliches, if you need one. Free isn't cheap enough unless your brain is tired and you want something without challenge. The writer's style is good, but her heroine is a self-centered bitch and her hero is in need of therapy, and whoever else read this and thought it was ready for publication were idiots to let this kind of sloppiness go to press. And it's fine if you give it five stars, maybe this is just the gooey non-challenging read you needed. I've enjoyed my fair share of such things. But for everyone else, nah. If you've read this and wonder why I'm so down on Macey, it's because her motives for "helping" Derrick are all tangled up in her own wants and needs and assumptions - there is stated sympathy, but her actions speak more of impatience and anger and her own disappointment than they do of any desire to do whatever might actually help him. And Derrick is stupid. Grief is hard, and there is no set timeframe for working your way past it, but guilt and self-denial call for therapy, not seclusion. And then, his epiphany? COME ON. This guy couldn't reason his way out of a wet paper bag. I'm glad he's fictional. For a book I finished reading, this is not great. Free is not cheap enough. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Macey Locke is not backing down. That means Derek Severson--the man she's been attracted to for years--is just going to have to deal. She hasn't come all the way to this South Texas beach bar for a tan. She's here to help her best friend get back to being what he loves--a firefighter. But Derek is more stubborn than she thought. He won't tolerate her cajoling, and he's definitely not hearing any confessions of love and affection. Well, too bad. This time, tough guy, you've met your match.

I liked this story. It's a good start to the series with good world building. I liked Macey. She keeps trying no matter how often Derek pushes her away. Derek is a shell. There is a lot of pain in this story. Derek's pain of losing his fiancée and Macey's pain of watching Derek grieve in silence. She is there for him and is hurt by him. I would have given up but Macey never did. She backed away then came back. I liked how she did it.
I look forward to more of the series. ( )
