Annabelle Lee (Summersville Secrets, Book 1) by N.J. Walters - 1 star
While the male character was somewhat believable, the female character was NOT.
A thirty y/o woman who has had only 1 relationship, who has the insecurities
described in the book, whose parents have died, and who spent time taking care
of an ill parent may have the fantasies that Annabelle Lee has, but the way she
would speak and act are completely different. Her character would not be nearly
as shallow and wanton as this female character. Additionally, there was NO
character development - these two characters "fall madly in love" after 2 weeks
of having sex, and without any kind of acquaintance before their first
introduction. As IF! Romance novels do have the ability to be well written with
excellent plots that are bolstered by the development of the relationship
between the characters. THIS one is absolutely NOT one of them.
