I enjoyed reading this book, the way you could see the main chararcters falling in love, the ending was very sweet. I only gave it two starts though because I won't be reading it again and I felt that Lanie was too forgiving after he called her all those horrible things - plus the way she regained her memory didn't seem at all plausible to me. Its a good book to fill a few hours - maybe on a train/flight. This was... pretty bad. I was fairly intrigued by the idea so I figured what the hell. But yeah... it was really not done well. Firstly, I completely and totally do not believe in love at first sight. You can't truly love someone if you don't actually know them. That being said, instant attraction to a person is something different and I think the author and the heroine are both confused about this. Sex does not equal love, guys. Instantly feeling an attraction for a person and wanting them, also not love. I also don't buy into the whole "he looked into my eyes and saw my soul" kind of BS. I don't think it's romantic, just kind of delusional. The characters seriously grated on my nerves. While I understood Mitchell's reservations considering his background, I think he went waaaaaaaaay overboard. Seriously, dude. Calm down and think about it for half a second. I have a hard time believing that somebody can be THAT jaded. Also, Delanie needed to chill out with the whole being in love with Mitchell from the moment she saw him across the crowded room business as well. It came off as childish and unrealistic and the whole book was a bit too melodramatic for my liking, and not in the good way. Seriously, I like over the top, and dramatic, and ridiculous, but this just wasn't doing it for me. At all. I was going to give it one star, but added an extra because I did spend hours reading it and apparently didn't hate it so much that I couldn't finish it. It was also super cheap (under a dollar I think), so I felt more generous than if I had paid more for it.
What do You think about Forgotten Father (2011)?
Enjoyed the storyline. Think I may look into others by this author.
