This is a romance?
First read by Corinne Michaels *YIKES* DNF at 48% I forced myself to read in case it got better, but it didn't. It got worse. There was a lot of heavy drama being dealt out in the first chapter. Not my favorite. Presley make a few decisions about her children's mental well-being that I do not agree with. The newly widowed Presley returns (reluctantly) to her hometown with her two boys. They guy that I thought was the love interest (he should have been!) is actually the brother of Presley's ex-fiancé and highschool sweetheart. So, this is a second-chance romance... between two people who should not be together. Lots of flashbacks to their original falling out. Tons of red flags in the present day like Zach ("the hero") being in a 5-year relationship with the town mean girl, but kissing Presley when she gets jealous. Multiple times! I don't care how bitchy this girl is, she is intimidated by a past relationship and SHE HAS EVERY REASON TO BE! He is cheating on her and Presley's thoughts about her are juvenile and petty - "He can keep his girlfriend with her stupid hair and stupid lips. I don't even like him." And then she kisses him. "I don't know why he keeps pulling back" - he has a girlfriend! - "I'm not exactly giving him the clearest of signals, but he's not either. He's dating Felicia, kissing me, leaving her at the bar, but she's living with him." I just can't. These characters are toxic!
