and then not deliver So I am going with dislikes first This is not a retelling of Pride and Prejudice The story is not the least bit similar The heroine has too much pride and hero makes his opinion of her based on prejudice, but that s it So, the title although it matches the story is misleading The writing was very shallow Like something from cate Just hint about Pride and Prejudice and you got

not the least bit similar The heroine has too much pride and hero makes his opinion of her based on prejudice, but that s it So, the title although it matches the story is misleading The writing was very shallow Like something from category romance novel While we have a big set of characters and complex plot, everything was very two dimensional For the life of me I could not get why the hero kept being nice to the heroine, since she acted like jerk to him all the time Likes Hero set in his ways where heroine shakes his world from the rootsHe d always known what he wanted, and she wasn t it And yet he still wanted herCute kids and their shenanigans.While the story had potential, the writing style didn t suit...It was short and sweet I think I had expected a modern day pride and prejudice story that was closely based off the original, and this wasn t it.but it was still a cute read.This was a cute romance, except for a few things that bugged me, and it s probably me being picky But, the heroine s pride was a bit over the top, especially when you find out what it is based on And no, she wasn t forced to take handouts from snide relatives Also, the writer had a tendency to over explain things Just say she tried to fix the mower or the sprinkler don t quote the repair manual Even the de...Rachael s best work Sympathetic, yet human characters, wonderful banter, and some fireworks inducing kissing scenes, mix with Rachael s trademark humor and observational skills to create a truly winning book.A modern PP romance that hooked me to read it from the first sentence in the blurb Emma as a heroine, though, fell flat Whenever she s around Kevin, she assumes he s patronizing her when all he s trying to do is be helpful Her behavior turned me off and DNF.My Rating 2 starsI thought this was a very fun book In a way, I could relate to Emma quite well She is taking care of these two darling little girls and bad luck seems to follow her She hates feeling like a charity casethan anything She hates having to ask for help or for a loan or forwellanything I get that I hate having to rely on other people and to have to ask for help I m not good at delegating because of that pride Sometimes pride gets in the way of letting people help a person out In I thought this was a very fun book In a way, I could relate to Emma quite well She is taking care of these
