Maybe someday I'll forget that I read a sorry piece of literature where the writer tried to poetise cheating, but today I'm so pissed that I'm gonna rant to my heart's content.
Ms. Mary Sue Sydney can't decide if she should feel guilty about carrying on with Ridge while he's in a relationship with someone else or revel in her new found love. Inspite of repeatedly dissing her bestfriend for sleeping with her ex. Hypocrite much?
Ridge can't decide if he should stay with his girlfriend of 5 years or take up with a girl he met weeks ago. Apparently both of them are two halves of his pathetic heart. This guy is the very definition of fickle.
I can't decide who I hated more in this fucked up love triangle.
Maggie was wise enough to dump Ridge's sorry ass when she came to know of his "unintentional" cheating. And Sydney was only happy to take him back even though she knew she wasn't his first choice. These two deserved each other, what with both of them being cut from the same shitty cloth and all. Also, Warren singing extremely different tunes to Sydney got on my nerves. What exactly did she do to inspire his instant loyalty?
And that sappy ending made me cringe. Ughh.
I hated this book with everything in me. I despised the poorly written cardboard characters, the cloying bullshit songs and weaker-than-sydney's-will promises, the insipid romance and the two timing asshole protagonist.
Why doesn't Goodreads have a 0 star rating? Just why??

Thank you, Nadine. And I hoped it would get better too, maybe a bit of redemption for Ridge, but the ending sucked. Justifying cheating is the worst thing CoHo could have done!

This was my CoHo book and it completely put me off. Not sure if I'll ever read any of her other works. And yes, Maggie was the only decent character in this book. I felt really bad for her.:/

gabs ohmygod you are my QUEEN. I literally cannot understand how everyone else collectively agreed to literally move pas Ridge cheating. Maggie deserved better and I honestly would’ve liked this book if it was about them and not Sydney, I literally am so scared of relationship because of backstabbing whores like Tori and Sydney. I cannot believe how they tried to justify their kiss because it was “in the moment” please it sounds pathetic, CoHo really stepped low on this book. Romanticizing cheating for them and making Hunter and Tori look like trash was so not okay. And it would’ve been have decent if they hadn’t at least kissed, I was really rooting for them honestly. I just hate how CoHo made it seem like it was okay that they kissed because love “has no boundaries” like yes the fuck it does.

Characters like Tori and Sydney make me wanna punch something too. And even before the kiss, Ridge was emotionally cheating on poor Maggie. I hatedddd him so much, ughhh 😐

And I also didn't understand why Waren became so nice to her like wtf?

Bumble.Bees.Books I disagree, I think that sometimes those kind of situations just happen. You find the person you’re supposed to be with and sometimes things happen, it’s not like they had sex and we’re just blatantly lying about everything. Maggie knew exactly what was going on all parties did in my opinion.

lol no, cheating is not just about sex. Even before he kissed the other girl, he was emotionally cheating on his girlfriend. And saying "sometimes things happen" is just a pathetic excuse for cheating on one's SO.

Sidd What they did shouldn't be excused but I think the perspective is the best thing in the book. I have never read a book about people who are deaf and difficultys they go through and their pov. The greatest books will make you feel a roller-coaster of emotions.

Luciana Palacio "Two halves of his pathetic heart" couldnt agree more. It was an endless book, frustrating and extremely boring. Warren is so hypocrite, he's yelling at Sydney if she wants a fuck then proceed to hug her and said she's a good person that deseverd better? Man, are you okay? If I could give this story a 0⭐️, I would.
