I have known love was dangerous from the beginning. My mother died of a broken heart and my father was the reason behind it. But still, I had taken the leap of faith and fallen in love. Never had I expected to be burnt in love, not like that. Swallowing the bitter taste of love, I had never loved again. I had forgotten what it was.
Until him.
He pulled me in his love even how much I didn’t want it. And then the truths that had been omitted, slipped. Destroying the world, I knew. Killing the love, I had left. Leaving me behind to burn in agony.
All because of her. Leaving me to follow a path of Sin to calm my soul or break it more.
Valerie has been burned in love twice. The first time she didn’t saw it coming. The second time she didn’t want love but still got pulled into it like a moth to the flame.
Always expect the unexpected but what she hadn’t expected was a betrayal. What she hadn’t expected to have was being cheated on, being lied to, and her. Now she is doing things she isn't supposed, on a path of sin because everything now is all about sin and sins everyone has committed in the past and the present.
Love, Hate, and Revenge. A mixture of all three in the enticing tale of Sintention.
I'm not perfect and nor my writing is. I'm newly born in writing world. My life isn't exciting but my brain is. Who am I? Fill the blanks on your own, you always know me. I'm not in the stars not in the air, not in the sky. I am just in front of you. I will love you if you love me! I will still love you if you hate me. I will be happy in your happiness and sad in your sadness. I will be always there for you if you became my friend. I'm in 20's yeah I know I'm old. I have graduated and on my way to masters. Hell, there is a lot of study in between. I read a lot mostly at night when everyone sleeps. Shhh, don't tell anyone. I just love to write. If you feel like connecting with me find me. Ps. I'M NOT A BIG WRITER. I JUST LIKE EMOTIONS.
I spent my 20s as an ex-pat living in Europe and North Africa. Most of my friends were native so hearing English as a second language is familiar. I’ve heard so many different patterns of English I never even hear the mistakes. READING it, however, is another thing altogether. I can almost do it but it still trips me up in a way hearing it never did.
I would love to be able to read this WRITTEN in the author’s native language and then translated. I’m sure it would be phenomenal. In the end, I DNF’d at 45% because of the language barrier. I truly love this author’s plotting, it’s some of the best angst, but the English execution in this book is just too hard to get through.
Review for what I read: I found the h to be sexually passionate but emotionally unavailable. Her personality fit her life experience and I thought it a nice twist on the traditional asshole H persona ;)
I went into this blind, and probably due to the language execution, I figured out the plot twists immediately. They were great. If it were written with a more natural command of English, where it was shown and not told, I probably would have been blown away.
SG Ladies, after 45% I skimmed for safety issues..there may be some I missed...but here’s what I read: There are 2 H’s and an OW the 2 H’s fought over at one time. Both H’s date the h at different times. H1 is currently with the h and as far as I can tell, never fucked the OW while he was with the h. He was, however, emotionally torn between the two women. H2 beat out H1 for the OW’s affection. H2 and OW have engaged the h’s services as a wedding planner. H2 is a douchecanoe of epic proportions. H1 is still hung up on OW and he royally fucks it up with the h because of it...great angst...he’s also a bit of a douchecanoe but he loves the h unlike the other H. H2 continues to be a total asshole and is currently cheating on OW, even putting the moves on the h who rejects him. Throw in some paternity drama for the h and OW, add an oops baby for the h, and don’t forget the kitchen sink...stir...and you get a South American Telenova.
Good angsty romance with soap like drama. However the grammar errors were atrocious, to an extreme. It's like it was written and never read over. I only took away one star for that reason.
This book was not written well so many mistakes. I got whiplash from each character. Just terrible couldn’t bring myself to finish it. I’m not sure why someone recommended this book in my reader group.
