I frown as unease starts to unfurl through my stomach. Oh, Baba, think again! They go back to his house and what does she do? Nat is insecure and she starts to tell me what he might be thinking right now and that is one of my pet peeves. (Are you for real? *rolls eyes*)Īfter an unpleasant incident at his parents' house, I thought she was smart enough to realize she didn't do anything wrong. I want him to hold me and tell me it's not true. The writing is shallow, wooden, stilted and immature. Finally, when Natalie was up to date about Luke being a former movie star she freaked out, acted childish and displayed her super drama queen attitude. And when Nat had a shooting with a client, he lost it when he thought he found them in a compromising situation. That said, I disliked his hot and cold attitude. The sex scenes are boring and poorly written and the heroine has body issues to no end from the get-go. Come Away With Me provides shallow and one-dimensional MCs. The cover is great but other than that I didn't like anything at all about this story. By no stretch of the imagination was I ever able to bond with the characters either. Hence, I never felt their chemistry and the sexual tension was totally lacking as well. Unfortunately the author didn't pull it off here.

Granted, insta' lust works just fine with me when it's well done. It's a story about shallow insta' lust & 'love' that did not work out for me at all. In fact, it's a shallow beauty contest and I feel like I am in the wrong movie. Come Away With Me is clearly OVERPOPULATED by beautiful and shallow people. I did not count how many times Natalie took Luke's beautiful face in her hand.

Oh, wait, it gets better yet: his impossibly beautiful face While we're on it, the author applied the term 'beautiful' 130 times in the context of human beings.

I apologize to you all for using the term 'shallow' pretty excessively in my review of Come Away With Me.

Honestly, I had to look twice when I saw all those four and five-star ratings and I thought 'What is wrong with you, Baba? Did we all read the same book?' *shakes head* Reading this book is clearly very unhealthy for me cos I'm sure that my blood pressure went through the roof. *facepalm*Ĭome Away With Me is one of the worst books I've read this year. Even the chocolate cake and the aircraft are beautiful. 46 Kindle pages refer to the term beautiful.
