This book killed everything the third installment fixed for me. Just when I had hope from the third book, this one came along and made me cringe.

I can honestly say, this isn't a story I enjoyed reading, and it's not one I'd recommend. Along with all the same editing mistakes (spell-checker, people, come on! Sheesh...) the story became completely cliche, lost all plot originality (even had the running through the woods scene from Twilight), and the ending was not one I enjoyed.

I'm glad it's over...

The second part of this series is needed for the story to continue, but out of the 4 novellas, this is my least favorite. Highly predictable, not edited, and the characters are incredibly annoying.

This seems like a novella (and the whole series, really) for people who didn't like the Twilight series, and want an anti-Twilight plot. The main male character is a jerk, and not someone any self-respecting girl would want to be with. Because of that, and her incredibly irritating personality, Rose simply seems stupid, desperate, and needy. Unlike Bella in the Twilight story, Rose hasn't thought anything through, and she's irritating for more shallow and vacant reasons than Bella.

I'm still leaving it 2 stars, because the ending left me with some hope that the next installment will be better, and I'm still reading the series. I may come to regret that decision...… (plus d'informations)

I was hoping to enjoy this story, especially considering the main character and I share a first name. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy this book very much.

The story was alright, but it simply seems like a cheap spin-off of the Twilight series. The plot is predictable and a bit melodramatic. I was disappointed with the lack of originality (Portland, Maine, really??) and now slightly offended that the character has my name...

My main issue with it, is it doesn't seem like it was spell-checked, grammar checked, or edited. The whole book needs serious editing, and there are so many simple mistakes, it's just irritating.

I did finish it though, and want to continue reading the series (it has to get better right?), so I think it balances out to 2 stars.
