Blurb
I fell in love with Holden York when I was six years old.
Most of my youth came with spiral notebooks filled with doodles, wedding plans, and “Janelle York” looped in bubbly handwriting.
However, one night in Vegas changed everything.
I woke up to more than just a fantasy of my brother’s best friend.
Five years later, I'm standing on his doorstep confronting him about the secret he kept from me.
If you think this is the story of how we rode off into the sunset together…
You’re so wrong.
But if you think this is the story of how Holden blackmailed me into living with him...
You couldn't be more right.

My Review of I Do(n't):
| We begin the story with Janelle attending her brother's wedding in Las Vegas. Chapter one begins with Janelle being a part of a reality television show where the contestants have to try to pick their soul mate out of 10 members of the opposite sex. If they chose correctly they will win $10,000. However, there is a catch. One that Janelle would have never expected. That twist leads Janelle back home to her brother's best friend Holden. Holden holds the answers to Janelle's past, one that she can't remember. Along the way Janelle learns the hardships her family has faced during her time away at college. She rebuilds relationships she thought were gone for good, and fixes ones she didn't even know were broken. I loved I Do(n't) so I am giving it 4.5 stars! I loved the huge plot twist right at the beginning, and then the drama here and there throughout. Those are the details that keep me wanting more from a story. I thought the ending was perfect and I loved Janelle's mom, she was a fantastic addition to the supporting character bunch. While I though that Janelle may have been a bit snide and ungrateful, I think over the course of the book she had a great reality check. I really liked Holden and could feel his sincerity. The one-upping between the two became quite comical at times. This was the first book I had read by Leddy Harper, and I look forward to her other pieces of work.  |
