Jessica's Reviews > So Close

A story with promise that succumbs to the temptations of too many dramatic twists in the final act. The trite "handsome leading man with unbelievable wealth, snobby mother" was bothersome - he never felt like an actual character, more a vehicle for our heroine's wishes and aspirations.

The bombshell revelation in the final act, followed by a painful and confusing side trip to Kiwah Island, and another bizarre revelation after that - totally took the wind out of the story's sails. The Cheyenne / Coco character did not make sense.

I could go on and on, but will simply say - skip this one so as to not be frustrated by a story that includes unnecessary drama, but likely had great potential before all the bells and whistles (and ornaments and accessories) were added.
