Stubborn Love

review 1: Clementine “Emmie” Hayes has a terrible secret. She used to be married and had told her husband she was going to leave him. Her husband commits suicide as she walks out the door and she leaves town after the funeral to live her life and bury the past. She rents an apartment with a young woman she meets in a taxi who happens to be dating the landlords brother. The landlord is Colin Bennett. Emmie tries to resist him romantically and they build a friendship. While the friendship slowly grows into something more, her past comes back to haunt her.This story ended up being just an okay read for me. I liked the character of Colin. He was a great guy who was financially well off, worked with his hands, sexy good looks, and all around good guy. Emmie is led to believe that... more he is player, but he didn’t really come off as one to me. Emmie wasn’t a character that I really enjoyed. Yes, she had a tragic past, but it felt like it was forced on the reader to feel sorry for her. The so called bad guys weren’t too much of surprise and in all honesty, I can’t even remember much about this book hours after finishing it. It just didn’t stand out to me.I would have to say that the only real thing I liked about this book was the characters of Colin and his brother Christian. I will more than likely end up reading the next book in the series, but it isn’t something I would rush out to buy.
review 2: This was an enjoyable story. The story begins with things being pretty rough on Emmy and you really do feel for her. She really does try to reclaim her life after that tragedy but is still holding onto a lot of unnecessary guilt. I instantly loved Paige. Her character was amazing. She was ballsy, never held back, and was pushing and helping Emmy out. I liked her name too :p I really liked Collin. He was sweet and understanding. I liked how things gradually developed between them. It was a smooth easy read that I didn't put down. less
