However, it gets tiring how the two of them keep fighting against their relationship. If you’ve read romantic novels before, you know more often than not the antagonism and indifference are the sure signs of the opposite coming along. There’s chemistry between Jacks and Evangeline. You must have guessed it after reading OUABH. You want to see how the enemies turn to lovers, how they overcome their fears and differences to be together. This said, the whole romanticism in this book was lacking for me.
“…Evangeline didn’t want love that made sense, she wanted love that made her feel, love that made her want to fight and hope for the impossible.” The intensity, the rightness of a true love isn’t the same as infatuation or hoping for the best with a pretty face. Towards the end, I believe she starts understanding that it’s not the same to love ‘the one’ than to just fall for the safety and comfort of shared feelings with anyone. You’ll still find an Evangeline more in love with the idea of feeling cherished than with the romantic notion of falling for the love of her life. You’ll find a damsel in distress looking for her happily ever after. If you’re a fan of Disney princesses and stories, then this book might be for you. You can check both side by side to see the parallelism. Let’s try to use the same order as in the previous review. Therefore, my fellow reader, I’m sorry if I sound repetitive, but I have to say what I have to say.
The fact is I feel almost the same way by the end of “ The Ballad of Never After” (TBONA) as I felt when I finished book 1 in this series. It’s funny how I reread my review on “ Once Upon a Broken Heart (OUABH),” and I was going to start this one saying the same things. There's going to be a book #3?
