Just slice their heart out while your at it, Tessa, and rub Hardin in their face by always going back when you say you won’t. Its a clearly selfish trait of “I want to be your friend even though I know you have feelings for me that will never be reciprocated”.
Then there’s the way she constantly leads other guys on: Noah, Trevor, Zed, and Robert the waiter, who she’s still stringing along towards the end of this book in the full knowledge that he likes her as more than a friend. When she finally develops a back bone, I knew she would not stick to it. The “only I can fix him” line has worn thin with me. She lets Hardin get away with so much, all the time. We don’t even get to hear Trish’s side of the story.Īnyway it gave Hardin the excuse to continue with the destructive behaviour, even a bit of arson, but hey that’s okay, he’s hurting, he can do whatever he wants. The “I’m your real daddy”plot line was the most interesting aspect of this final book and it’s kind of whitewashed over. What’s more annoying is she still marries her neighbour despite being caught in a steamy clinch with Christian the night before her wedding! Trish certainly went down down in my estimations, and then she vanishes without a mention, except for a few sentences, for the rest of the book. While we spent three books blaming the guy Hardin thought was his dad for messing him up with his alcoholism and abandonment, it’s actually his mum who deserves to bear the blame. Urgh, not again!Īt the end of the last book we found out that Hardin’s dad is actually Christian Vance whose been getting it on with his mum on and off for over twenty years. By chapter 2 Hardin was already in a bar, breaking stuff and getting drunk. I was also sick of the constants alcohol binges and violent outbursts, but I wanted to literally close the book on these self destructive characters and there was only one way to do it. I could do without the eye rolling dialogue along the lines of “you are the only one who can save me”, “I can’t do this, but I can’t live without you” blah, blah, blah.
I prayed that we could move on from the constant breakups and reconciliations. I’m back to the never ending drama and angst of Hardin and Tessa.
