Don't give up on this book - in the beginning it is difficult to understand the UK lingo & there is an overabundance of silliness. It gets much better, it has serious moments, heartbreak & love! Natasha comes home to her man boning his assistant which makes her angry but not really as upset as she thought she might be. She packs her bags & comes back in ready to give her ex a piece of her mind - and he is STILL boning the other chick! This gives us a glimpse into how this book will go - silliness, funny crazy dialogue, with a dose of real life & sadness mixed in. And the worst part is that her ex refers to her as an elephant adding to the insecurities Tash already has about her voluptuous figure. Vowing to seize the day she moves with her best gay boyfriend to Canada of all places on a whim. But quickly we discover it is fate as Tash is thrown into the path of Tudor North, a beautiful muscular sexy actor! Tudor is broody with major mood swings, he is possessive and protective. He has anger issues which is ok, he is dealing with some major family issues, but it is not ok to take out his anger on Tash! Tudor's big secrets come out in a dramatic way & we never see it coming & neither does Tash. He clings to Tash now & she realizes everything he has done to protect her. When Tash left the UK she swore she wanted a man who loved her so much he would shout it to the world to hear & Tudor does that for her! Tudor even says to his little sister that Tash is like a sunflower to him, a reminder that the sun will always shine again no matter what happens. Loved that! In the end we have very dynamic complicated characters in Tudor & Tash & I ended up rooting for this beautiful love affair! This is the most fun I've had all year reading.This wonderfully funny tale of normal and not so normal people should be made into a movie. I want to see this in film, tomorrow. I'm disappointed it hasn't been released on DVD. I need hours of this. Maybe a mini series...just for me. If you can make that happen I would be forever grateful. That is all! Until then, I will be forced to read everything you write. :)I feel like a stand up thank you is order.
What do You think about Eternally North (2013)?
I can't even rate this. I'm stunned that this is the same author who wrote "It Ain't Me, Babe."
