Finally I'm done reading one of them syrupy-soppy love novels from Mill& Boon [after skimming through three-fourth of the book]! Same old story line: The beautiful flawless-complexioned leading lady has a bad first relationship with some loser- The tall and hunky, Greek bodied Adonis is not even remotely interested in any sort of a serious relationship as he is a very much commitment phobic womanizer- They kick it off getting under each others' skin but there is always this underlying chemistry that the leading lady tries to "rationalize" with herself to ignore it, even though Adonis seemed to make her feel otherwise- The Greek bodied Adonis pursues her after eliciting a tiny reaction from his leading lady- She finally gives in to just one night of pure physical intimacy- Lands up falling in love with him in that one night- Feels he's not ever going to give her love a chance- She decides to leave him- He "convinces" himself he doesn't need her but then realizes he loves her and travels half way across the planet in search of his true love- He finds her and professes his undying love and devotion to her- And they all live happily ever after..... Same story in almost every single book! But the sad part of it all was that I seemed to be unable to put the book down! It was like I needed to know how obtuse and thick the characters seemed to appear even though I knew it! It was like sucking on a cavity, you know you want to stop but you're unable to do so.... Oh! Come on now!
