Funny, Romantic & Quirky
I loved this book because the plot was well written, it’s keeps you engaged with both sides of the perspective of the two main characters. You see how they both develop into the people they are meant to be and how good they are for each other.

The author completely blamed women for sexual harassment based on how they dress- I couldn’t get passed the first chapter due to the terrible characterization. One of the main characters is supposed to be an educated psychologist and yet she is shown to be someone who clearly believes it’s the victims fault- how could you write a book that gives out this message? I certainly couldn’t read one.

What a farce! The main characters are 27 and 30, but talk and act like teenagers. I did finish the book in hopes the story would develop. Nope!

Great read!

Patience......
I should always read a book again if I didn't like it the first time, because never I leave a good review. I read the entire book again and found the book to be a sweet love story. I read a review that said the book had some immature parts. But, basically it's the way some grown people are. So true to life. The only complaint was the cover is ridiculous, a bride over the groom, I didn't read the book for six months because of the cover and then a negative view when I read it the first time. From from to back is the whole package matters, you can't think of a cover just put flowers and the title. The cover matters.

Really hard to finish
I wanted to find out how this book ended, I have 5 pages left and am struggling to finish. The writing is like reading a medical transcript. Stiff, formal, unnatural, and doesn't flow. The way the characters communicate with each other is so awkward. I saw 550 reviews and four star rating and thought it would be a good one. Not so much.

Wasted Story line/Plot
First, let me just say the storyline is good. As with many of this Author's books, the story lines all have potential. However, begin reading and you get transported to a horrible misuse of words. I question if any editor even reviewed this, and if they did what they were thinking. The characters are flat and poorly developed. Most of the characters speech is incredibly awkward or stilted. I really did love the idea of this book, but on reading it all I can say is, DON'T!!! Unless you are an English major/creative writing major looking to improve your editing/writing skills

It's a super cute book, romantic without being dirty.
Karategirl_96
Childish
The characters are unrealistic, the model at the party in the beginning was written as if my 6 year old niece wrote this character. The characters are forced into an arranged marriage and a secluded cabin because they don't want to be cut off by mom and dad. Two spoiled brats, I don't really care what happens to them. I quit reading after 50 pages.
Kaylinb123
AWFUL
Worst book I have ever read. Terrible dialogue, it felt so forced. No flow at all, it sounded like the characters were reading the script of a cheesy movie. The plot COULD have been interesting had the execution been better, but as it is I could only get through 30 pages and then just couldn't take it any longer.

I thought this book was okay. The story line and plot were mildly interesting, but the dialogue was awful. I didn't have anything else to read at the time, I was determined to get through it, and that was the only thing that kept me going. I found it to be very predictable, there were no plot twists or mysteries or surprises. Unless you are extremely bored and have nothing else to do, you should pass on this book. The one love scene wasn't even that good.

I love how the author made everything so realistic. Making Ryan study the ways of marriage and womens secrets was genius!! This book was really funny and it made me giggle and smile.

The BEST Romance Novel I've Ever Read!!
Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. I just couldn't put it down. The character development was great, something I rarely see in a romance novel. The characters were very relatable which served to pull me into the story even further. This is one romance novel that I'll likely read again!
eeyore19841979
Like it!
I thought it was cute!! So what if it's unrealistic!!! It was a cute book!! Kept me interested!
WhyD?
um....no
this book is horribly written. The characters are so simple and entirely unrealistic. the dialogue is horrible. and the story doesn't progress at all. it goes in circles, over and over again. I'm almost done with it (& not really interested in finishing it) and the plot is at the exact same point it was in the beginning. the message of the book is painfully obvious, I mean who are we kidding here. all in all, two thumbs waaaay down >=( !!!!

I like this story..... It actually made me feel a connection with Beth I mean if my mom and dad did that to me to some one I hated I'd do the same but this book is amazing I absolutely loved it..... It made me feel like men like Ryan actually so exsist
SsSinger
You get what you pay for
I understand why this book is free. The story was totally unrealistic (arranged marriages and almost 30-year-old virgins) yet predictable. The writing was very simple, many things were restated, and there were so many typos. I read it at night while trying to fall asleep and it worked! I guess that's one redeeming quality!
BrittMason
Okay
I wouldn't pay for it but it was an easy read. Definitely not thought provoking.
Purple_Punk!
Awful
Yeah that pretty much sums this book up... There's a reason it's free
Tigermomma
Not worth reading
This book is entirely unrealistic, completely predictable, and sounds like it was written by a 7th grade girl who's only knowledge of men came from her girl friends. Don't waste your time.
Icestreak
Ugh
If you've looked at her other books, they're all about arranged marriage. Same plot, same characters, just different names. I know teenagers who can write better. This author just can't write. The plot is childish and drawn out, the author makes typos and grammar errors, and the characters are rather 2D. There's nothing appealing or standout-ish about them. I can't understand why this is number one, I've read books online that are better written. I don't mean to flame, but I don't consider this a good book, just something to waste time on. I'm glad it's free.
Ghostgirl1314
Ok
It is ok for a free book but I wouldn't pay for it.
AvidReaderSC
Mind bogglingly bad
I can't believe I continued reading this, and after giving up on it once, I even gave it a second chance. More fool me. The characters are simple, and utterly unbelievable, the message is blatant and the quality of the writing does indeed feel like a high school student wrote this. I regret the waste of my time.
not2old4fantasy
Boring and predictable
I've read this plot line before. It even reminds me of the movie "What a Woman Wants" but (spoiler) not as endearing or funny. The guy bends over backwards for the girl there's a lot of character development for him but the only way to describe the girl is A COLD FISH. Even the big 'tension' moment (that you could see coming a mile away) was a huge let down.
Smrtrthanu
Horrible
If I were Ruth Ann's English teacher, I'd slap her, then slap myself! This "book" reads like a fourth grader's diary. Completely stiff and unnatural dialogue, unbelievable and one-dimensional characters, and dull, predictable scenes. I know it's not completely fair to review a book you have completed, but I couldn't choke this one down.
Spirithp
Good read
I really enjoyed this book because I could see a little of myself in both Beth and Ryan. There were a few lulls in the movement of the plot and in the second half many things were unnecessarily restated. Overall a good read.

Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. I just couldn't put it down. The character development was great, something I rarely see in a romance novel. The characters were very relatable which served to pull me into the story even further. This is one romance novel that I'll likely read again!
eeyore19841979
Like it!
I thought it was cute!! So what if it's unrealistic!!! It was a cute book!! Kept me interested!
WhyD?
um....no
this book is horribly written. The characters are so simple and entirely unrealistic. the dialogue is horrible. and the story doesn't progress at all. it goes in circles, over and over again. I'm almost done with it (& not really interested in finishing it) and the plot is at the exact same point it was in the beginning. the message of the book is painfully obvious, I mean who are we kidding here. all in all, two thumbs waaaay down >=( !!!!

You get what you pay for
I understand why this book is free. The story was totally unrealistic (arranged marriages and almost 30-year-old virgins) yet predictable. The writing was very simple, many things were restated, and there were so many typos. I read it at night while trying to fall asleep and it worked! I guess that's one redeeming quality!

Not worth reading
This book is entirely unrealistic, completely predictable, and sounds like it was written by a 7th grade girl who's only knowledge of men came from her girl friends. Don't waste your time.
Icestreak
Ugh
If you've looked at her other books, they're all about arranged marriage. Same plot, same characters, just different names. I know teenagers who can write better. This author just can't write. The plot is childish and drawn out, the author makes typos and grammar errors, and the characters are rather 2D. There's nothing appealing or standout-ish about them. I can't understand why this is number one, I've read books online that are better written. I don't mean to flame, but I don't consider this a good book, just something to waste time on. I'm glad it's free.

I can't believe I continued reading this, and after giving up on it once, I even gave it a second chance. More fool me. The characters are simple, and utterly unbelievable, the message is blatant and the quality of the writing does indeed feel like a high school student wrote this. I regret the waste of my time.
not2old4fantasy
Boring and predictable
I've read this plot line before. It even reminds me of the movie "What a Woman Wants" but (spoiler) not as endearing or funny. The guy bends over backwards for the girl there's a lot of character development for him but the only way to describe the girl is A COLD FISH. Even the big 'tension' moment (that you could see coming a mile away) was a huge let down.

Horrible
If I were Ruth Ann's English teacher, I'd slap her, then slap myself! This "book" reads like a fourth grader's diary. Completely stiff and unnatural dialogue, unbelievable and one-dimensional characters, and dull, predictable scenes. I know it's not completely fair to review a book you have completed, but I couldn't choke this one down.

I loved this book because the plot was well written, it’s keeps you engaged with both sides of the perspective of the two main characters. You see how they both develop into the people they are meant to be and how good they are for each other.

The author completely blamed women for sexual harassment based on how they dress- I couldn’t get passed the first chapter due to the terrible characterization. One of the main characters is supposed to be an educated psychologist and yet she is shown to be someone who clearly believes it’s the victims fault- how could you write a book that gives out this message? I certainly couldn’t read one.

I should always read a book again if I didn't like it the first time, because never I leave a good review. I read the entire book again and found the book to be a sweet love story. I read a review that said the book had some immature parts. But, basically it's the way some grown people are. So true to life. The only complaint was the cover is ridiculous, a bride over the groom, I didn't read the book for six months because of the cover and then a negative view when I read it the first time. From from to back is the whole package matters, you can't think of a cover just put flowers and the title. The cover matters.

I wanted to find out how this book ended, I have 5 pages left and am struggling to finish. The writing is like reading a medical transcript. Stiff, formal, unnatural, and doesn't flow. The way the characters communicate with each other is so awkward. I saw 550 reviews and four star rating and thought it would be a good one. Not so much.

Wasted Story line/Plot
First, let me just say the storyline is good. As with many of this Author's books, the story lines all have potential. However, begin reading and you get transported to a horrible misuse of words. I question if any editor even reviewed this, and if they did what they were thinking. The characters are flat and poorly developed. Most of the characters speech is incredibly awkward or stilted. I really did love the idea of this book, but on reading it all I can say is, DON'T!!! Unless you are an English major/creative writing major looking to improve your editing/writing skills
MsyBaby28
Cute
It's a super cute book, romantic without being dirty.
Karategirl_96
Childish
The characters are unrealistic, the model at the party in the beginning was written as if my 6 year old niece wrote this character. The characters are forced into an arranged marriage and a secluded cabin because they don't want to be cut off by mom and dad. Two spoiled brats, I don't really care what happens to them. I quit reading after 50 pages.
Kaylinb123
AWFUL
Worst book I have ever read. Terrible dialogue, it felt so forced. No flow at all, it sounded like the characters were reading the script of a cheesy movie. The plot COULD have been interesting had the execution been better, but as it is I could only get through 30 pages and then just couldn't take it any longer.

Funny story line with drama. Good read for older teens (parents need to read first for age appropriateness). The novel story line discusses the impact bullying can have on life decisions. Good read for the adults, too.

I thought this book was okay. The story line and plot were mildly interesting, but the dialogue was awful. I didn't have anything else to read at the time, I was determined to get through it, and that was the only thing that kept me going. I found it to be very predictable, there were no plot twists or mysteries or surprises. Unless you are extremely bored and have nothing else to do, you should pass on this book. The one love scene wasn't even that good.

this is a very cute story. it's sweet, it's light reading, and you'll catch yourself smiling. enjoy! oh, and yeah, it's um free.

Paints a Great Picture
I loved this book!!! I thought it was great that Ryan and Beth were in a cabin in the middle if nowhere with limited contact to friends and family. They were able to get to know each other the old fashion way with talking face to face rather than the luxury of talking with or through technology.
Fragner
Got to chapter two
This book was just not well-written. The prose was stilted and the characters bland. You could easily get lost in the volleys of dialogue. I had to put it down when it also started to get preachy.

READ READ READ THIS BOOK!!!
I love how the author made everything so realistic. Making Ryan study the ways of marriage and womens secrets was genius!! This book was really funny and it made me giggle and smile. It's full of laughter and perfect "awww!" moments. Ryan shows such sweet moments that you just wanna grab him and take him for yourself. Elizabeth was bitter but she had reasons for her actions and I love both the characters! Read read read this book!!!

Wasted Story line/Plot
First, let me just say the storyline is good. As with many of this Author's books, the story lines all have potential. However, begin reading and you get transported to a horrible misuse of words. I question if any editor even reviewed this, and if they did what they were thinking. The characters are flat and poorly developed. Most of the characters speech is incredibly awkward or stilted. I really did love the idea of this book, but on reading it all I can say is, DON'T!!! Unless you are an English major/creative writing major looking to improve your editing/writing skills

It's a super cute book, romantic without being dirty.

Childish
The characters are unrealistic, the model at the party in the beginning was written as if my 6 year old niece wrote this character. The characters are forced into an arranged marriage and a secluded cabin because they don't want to be cut off by mom and dad. Two spoiled brats, I don't really care what happens to them. I quit reading after 50 pages.
Kaylinb123
AWFUL
Worst book I have ever read. Terrible dialogue, it felt so forced. No flow at all, it sounded like the characters were reading the script of a cheesy movie. The plot COULD have been interesting had the execution been better, but as it is I could only get through 30 pages and then just couldn't take it any longer.

I thought this book was okay. The story line and plot were mildly interesting, but the dialogue was awful. I didn't have anything else to read at the time, I was determined to get through it, and that was the only thing that kept me going. I found it to be very predictable, there were no plot twists or mysteries or surprises. Unless you are extremely bored and have nothing else to do, you should pass on this book. The one love scene wasn't even that good.

not2old4fantasy
Boring and predictable
I've read this plot line before. It even reminds me of the movie "What a Woman Wants" but (spoiler) not as endearing or funny. The guy bends over backwards for the girl there's a lot of character development for him but the only way to describe the girl is A COLD FISH. Even the big 'tension' moment (that you could see coming a mile away) was a huge let down.
Smrtrthanu
Horrible
If I were Ruth Ann's English teacher, I'd slap her, then slap myself! This "book" reads like a fourth grader's diary. Completely stiff and unnatural dialogue, unbelievable and one-dimensional characters, and dull, predictable scenes. I know it's not completely fair to review a book you have completed, but I couldn't choke this one down.

I really enjoyed this book because I could see a little of myself in both Beth and Ryan. There were a few lulls in the movement of the plot and in the second half many things were unnecessarily restated. Overall a good read.

Genre : Contemporary ,Books ,Romance ,Fiction & Literature
Ryan Jackson and Elizabeth Valentine can't stand each other. Unfortunately for them, their parents get along great and decide to play matchmaker in a very unusual way. In order to keep their jobs, they will have to get married and spend four months in a remote Alaskan cabin. They accept the terms but are determined that their parents' ruse will never work...until Ryan changes his mind.Review:

Funny, Romantic & Quirky
I loved this book because the plot was well written, it’s keeps you engaged with both sides of the perspective of the two main characters. You see how they both develop into the people they are meant to be and how good they are for each other.
YourAverageBookWorm
Snap Judgement
The author completely blamed women for sexual harassment based on how they dress- I couldn’t get passed the first chapter due to the terrible characterization. One of the main characters is supposed to be an educated psychologist and yet she is shown to be someone who clearly believes it’s the victims fault- how could you write a book that gives out this message? I certainly couldn’t read one.

Patience......
I should always read a book again if I didn't like it the first time, because never I leave a good review. I read the entire book again and found the book to be a sweet love story. I read a review that said the book had some immature parts. But, basically it's the way some grown people are. So true to life. The only complaint was the cover is ridiculous, a bride over the groom, I didn't read the book for six months because of the cover and then a negative view when I read it the first time. From from to back is the whole package matters, you can't think of a cover just put flowers and the title. The cover matters.

Really hard to finish
I wanted to find out how this book ended, I have 5 pages left and am struggling to finish. The writing is like reading a medical transcript. Stiff, formal, unnatural, and doesn't flow. The way the characters communicate with each other is so awkward. I saw 550 reviews and four star rating and thought it would be a good one. Not so much.

I can't believe I continued reading this, and after giving up on it once, I even gave it a second chance. More fool me. The characters are simple, and utterly unbelievable, the message is blatant and the quality of the writing does indeed feel like a high school student wrote this. I regret the waste of my time.

Boring and predictable
I've read this plot line before. It even reminds me of the movie "What a Woman Wants" but (spoiler) not as endearing or funny. The guy bends over backwards for the girl there's a lot of character development for him but the only way to describe the girl is A COLD FISH. Even the big 'tension' moment (that you could see coming a mile away) was a huge let down.

Horrible
If I were Ruth Ann's English teacher, I'd slap her, then slap myself! This "book" reads like a fourth grader's diary. Completely stiff and unnatural dialogue, unbelievable and one-dimensional characters, and dull, predictable scenes. I know it's not completely fair to review a book you have completed, but I couldn't choke this one down.

Good read
I really enjoyed this book because I could see a little of myself in both Beth and Ryan. There were a few lulls in the movement of the plot and in the second half many things were unnecessarily restated. Overall a good read.

This story is great! I just reread it and would love to read it again if time allows. Humorous and thrilling, I highly recommend this page turner to everyone.

The characters are funny, young and eager for love, the writing very easy, overall an enjoyable story especially when it has a happy ending, right?

This book had a nice plot but was childish in nature. There were multiple spelling errors and it dragged on. I wouldn't read again.

Funny, Romantic & Quirky
I loved this book because the plot was well written, it’s keeps you engaged with both sides of the perspective of the two main characters. You see how they both develop into the people they are meant to be and how good they are for each other.

Snap Judgement
The author completely blamed women for sexual harassment based on how they dress- I couldn’t get passed the first chapter due to the terrible characterization. One of the main characters is supposed to be an educated psychologist and yet she is shown to be someone who clearly believes it’s the victims fault- how could you write a book that gives out this message? I certainly couldn’t read one.

What a farce! The main characters are 27 and 30, but talk and act like teenagers. I did finish the book in hopes the story would develop. Nope!

Great read!
I love this book.

Patience......
I should always read a book again if I didn't like it the first time, because never I leave a good review. I read the entire book again and found the book to be a sweet love story. I read a review that said the book had some immature parts. But, basically it's the way some grown people are. So true to life. The only complaint was the cover is ridiculous, a bride over the groom, I didn't read the book for six months because of the cover and then a negative view when I read it the first time. From from to back is the whole package matters, you can't think of a cover just put flowers and the title. The cover matters.

Well Well
I must say this was unexpeted one. Beautiful well written story. Impeccable moral teacher. You have done a excellent job on this one.

Really hard to finish
I wanted to find out how this book ended, I have 5 pages left and am struggling to finish. The writing is like reading a medical transcript. Stiff, formal, unnatural, and doesn't flow. The way the characters communicate with each other is so awkward. I saw 550 reviews and four star rating and thought it would be a good one. Not so much.

Very immature
This book has a very immature narration and is boring

Wasted Story line/Plot
First, let me just say the storyline is good. As with many of this Author's books, the story lines all have potential. However, begin reading and you get transported to a horrible misuse of words. I question if any editor even reviewed this, and if they did what they were thinking. The characters are flat and poorly developed. Most of the characters speech is incredibly awkward or stilted. I really did love the idea of this book, but on reading it all I can say is, DON'T!!! Unless you are an English major/creative writing major looking to improve your editing/writing skills

Cute
It's a super cute book, romantic without being dirty.
Karategirl_96
Childish
The characters are unrealistic, the model at the party in the beginning was written as if my 6 year old niece wrote this character. The characters are forced into an arranged marriage and a secluded cabin because they don't want to be cut off by mom and dad. Two spoiled brats, I don't really care what happens to them. I quit reading after 50 pages.
Kaylinb123
AWFUL
Worst book I have ever read. Terrible dialogue, it felt so forced. No flow at all, it sounded like the characters were reading the script of a cheesy movie. The plot COULD have been interesting had the execution been better, but as it is I could only get through 30 pages and then just couldn't take it any longer.

Funny story line with drama. Good read for older teens (parents need to read first for age appropriateness). The novel story line discusses the impact bullying can have on life decisions. Good read for the adults, too.

This is one of the most amazing books I read. I believed to people can grow out of the hate they have for each other and have one of the most perfect relationship

Wonderful read! Characters are easily identifiable with true people and personalities in everyday life. It is real! A book that let's you enjoy the journey to a maturity in life and love. A lesson for us all.

With this ring, I thee wed
I thought this book was okay. The story line and plot were mildly interesting, but the dialogue was awful. I didn't have anything else to read at the time, I was determined to get through it, and that was the only thing that kept me going. I found it to be very predictable, there were no plot twists or mysteries or surprises. Unless you are extremely bored and have nothing else to do, you should pass on this book. The one love scene wasn't even that good.

adorable
this is a very cute story. it's sweet, it's light reading, and you'll catch yourself smiling. enjoy! oh, and yeah, it's um free.

Paints a Great Picture
I loved this book!!! I thought it was great that Ryan and Beth were in a cabin in the middle if nowhere with limited contact to friends and family. They were able to get to know each other the old fashion way with talking face to face rather than the luxury of talking with or through technology.

Got to chapter two
This book was just not well-written. The prose was stilted and the characters bland. You could easily get lost in the volleys of dialogue. I had to put it down when it also started to get preachy.

READ READ READ THIS BOOK!!!
I love how the author made everything so realistic. Making Ryan study the ways of marriage and womens secrets was genius!! This book was really funny and it made me giggle and smile. It's full of laughter and perfect "awww!" moments. Ryan shows such sweet moments that you just wanna grab him and take him for yourself. Elizabeth was bitter but she had reasons for her actions and I love both the characters! Read read read this book!!!

The plot line was ok. I wasn't enthralled with it entirely and the plot was completely predictable yet unsubstantial and lacking.
Symph2001
Decent read
It's a pass the time while waiting book. It was mostly like a harlequin in that. I'd read another. I do a lot of waiting. :)

Best book ever!
This was such a wonderful book to read! Details in the book made it seem so real. I am recommending this book to all my friends!!!

Decent book
Kinda cheesy at times but I did find myself pulling for the characters. It's not a bad read at all :)

The BEST Romance Novel I've Ever Read!!
Wow! I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. I just couldn't put it down. The character development was great, something I rarely see in a romance novel. The characters were very relatable which served to pull me into the story even further. This is one romance novel that I'll likely read again!
eeyore19841979
Like it!
I thought it was cute!! So what if it's unrealistic!!! It was a cute book!! Kept me interested!
WhyD?
um....no
this book is horribly written. The characters are so simple and entirely unrealistic. the dialogue is horrible. and the story doesn't progress at all. it goes in circles, over and over again. I'm almost done with it (& not really interested in finishing it) and the plot is at the exact same point it was in the beginning. the message of the book is painfully obvious, I mean who are we kidding here. all in all, two thumbs waaaay down >=( !!!!

Love the book
I like this story..... It actually made me feel a connection with Beth I mean if my mom and dad did that to me to some one I hated I'd do the same but this book is amazing I absolutely loved it..... It made me feel like men like Ryan actually so exsist
SsSinger
You get what you pay for
I understand why this book is free. The story was totally unrealistic (arranged marriages and almost 30-year-old virgins) yet predictable. The writing was very simple, many things were restated, and there were so many typos. I read it at night while trying to fall asleep and it worked! I guess that's one redeeming quality!
BrittMason
Okay
I wouldn't pay for it but it was an easy read. Definitely not thought provoking.
Purple_Punk!
Awful
Yeah that pretty much sums this book up... There's a reason it's free
Tigermomma
Not worth reading
This book is entirely unrealistic, completely predictable, and sounds like it was written by a 7th grade girl who's only knowledge of men came from her girl friends. Don't waste your time.
Icestreak
Ugh
If you've looked at her other books, they're all about arranged marriage. Same plot, same characters, just different names. I know teenagers who can write better. This author just can't write. The plot is childish and drawn out, the author makes typos and grammar errors, and the characters are rather 2D. There's nothing appealing or standout-ish about them. I can't understand why this is number one, I've read books online that are better written. I don't mean to flame, but I don't consider this a good book, just something to waste time on. I'm glad it's free.

Ok
It is ok for a free book but I wouldn't pay for it.

The guy bends over backwards for the girl there's a lot of character development for him but the only way to describe the girl is A COLD FISH.
