Charade

Charade (Games, #1)Charade by Nyrae Dawn
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Here's a pint of Make Your Heart Smile Little Romance. It's nothing mind-blowing, it's just a nice little story. Of course the characters are 1-gorgeous, and 2-damaged. But they heal each other and it all ends well. All you need is a literary spoon to dig into your e-reader. Perfect for those times when you're depressed and feeling lonely.

That's about it, really. The ebook needs some editing; there are a few typos. There's virtually zero depth and a lot of the characters behave in ways that are just ridiculous. Attempts at heart-wrenching sorrow were made. And Nyrae Dawn hasn't quite risen to the levels of Abbi Glines (who's always fun) or Colleen Hoover (who is the queen of this sort of thing). It's a quick read, moderately entertaining. It's New Adult, so be aware - and the only other thing I will say is this, quoting from the book:

"You kiss your mama with that mouth, boy?"

Yeah. Enjoy.
