// I don't even know what to say!! All in all, this was a nice book!!

Though I do have to say, why name Carson's mother Bertha so that now one of their babies is named Bertha too!! Bertha?!!? No offence to the name but, of all the names ... Bertha?!!? VERY archaic!!

// Thank goodness for Cassie!! That's all I'm going to say!!

// I'm angry!! I'm angry at the author because she didn't fucking have to go down this route; she could EASILY have figured out how to handle this matter WITHOUT turning Truman into a cold-hearted, ungrateful, unreasonable, unfeeling, asshole, BASTARD!!!

I put up with the typos and the occasional grammatical blunder! I put up with a few over the top side-plots! I put up with the EXTREME insta-love!

Continued below!

// I'm getting angry at this author right now!!! What on earth is this author on about and YES, I am looking at the author!!! Authors make all kinds of choices in their books and THEY decide what direction to go in; I hold THEM accountable, as we all should!! I don't get why the author is totally throwing Truman under the bus and is totally destroying how I view him; all for the sake of some bullshit contrived drama!

// Holy shit if you're this shakeable and this ready to fly off the handle at the tiniest blip, I am not so sure you deserve Carson!!!!

What the hell is this author thinking?!!? I don't get why authors like to fuck around with their MCs just because they can!! Why fuck around with your MCs like this and why force your readers to slide down a path of developing dislike?!!? Don't make me dislike Truman - don't do it!!

// The way things are so over the top in their extremes and how everything at this point feels so incredibly irrational and contrived, makes me start to look upon the author's writing as juvenile and immature!! I hope the author reigns it in and calms down with all this contrived drama, and I really hope the next book is WAAAAAAY more solid in every way that matters/counts!!!!

// WHOA WHOA WHOA!!! YOU KNEW HE WAS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE?!!!? Dude, the guy just didn't tell you what he did for a living yet, he didn't steal your fucking kidney; CALM THE FUCK DOWN!!!
What's up with this author and going from one extreme to another?!!? What's with all the friggin' theatrics?!!? Truman's reaction is WAAAAAAAAY over the top AND this feels so incredibly contrived it's way over borderline ridiculous!!!

// Ummm I get what Truman is trying to say to himself but I find it odd that the author would choose to phrase it THAT way o__O!!
Fucking up in a relationship does NOT always involve lying or cheating ... those are crazy extremes that have NO place in the relationship here; of that, Truman and Carson can be absolutely sure!! I'm just raising an eyebrow at the author's choice of words (and it isn't the first time)!!

// “We both keep talking about how soon it is to feel this way about each other, but the minute I saw you, I knew I’d found my reason for being. My reason for living.”

~ WHOA!! Dial it back there, dude!! That’s a bit much!! Like a bit toooooo much!!

// “What do you want for Christmas, Carson?” Santa asked.
Carson set his hand over his heart. “A lifetime to love Truman.”

~ You have to be more specific! I became an expert in wish-making after seeing Aladdin a gazillion times :-P!! The way you phrase it is not correct; you’d get the lifetime to love him but it doesn’t mean he’d be there!! Stop the madman!!
