Sweet

The idea was good and a lot of the dialogue was entertaining but the love story was way overdone and felt forced and ultimately that's what lead to my three star review. 

It's a quick, entertaining read and the basic storyline is really unique and fun and could have been great if she had either nixed the whole love story or made it more believable. Rather than them awkwardly meeting a few times and just instantly fall in love maybe just make them really flirty and wait until the end for the love to happen. But that's just my opinion.

The luxurious celebrity cruise launching the trendy new diet sweetener Solu should be the vacation of a lifetime. But Laurel is starting to regret accepting her friend Viv's invitation. She's already completely embarrassed herself in front of celebrity host Tom Forelli-the hottest guy ever!-and she's too sick to even try the sweetener. And that's before Viv and all the other passengers start acting really strange. Tom knows that he should be grateful for this job and the chance to shed his former-child-star image. His publicists have even set up a 'romance' with a sexy reality star. But as things on the ship start to get wild, he finds himself drawn to a different girl. And when the hosting gig turns into an expose on the shocking side effects of Solu, it's Laurel that he's determined to save. Emmy Laybourne, author of the Monument 14 trilogy, takes readers on a dream vacation in Sweet that goes first comically, then tragically, then horrifyingly, wrong!

i didn’t mind this book at first but it got so weird ... i just wanted it to be over it was so odd idek. I can kind of see what the author was going for, and it was a creative idea, really, but the execution was just awful. It just felt like a mess of unorganized thoughts and and undecided characters who i could hardly even keep track of. The romance was weak and uninteresting as well.
