GRR Reviews Undone: A City Rich Novel by Amelia Wilde
Undone is a "different worlds / opposites attract" romance that sets up the scene nicely, but the transformation seems to be a bit abrupt.
Beau's a prim and proper businessman. He needs to be to court government contracts, and romance was far from his mind. Annabel is a free-spirit with no goal and no agenda, wandering the world for new experiences because that was her early life. When Beau rescued Annabel from a bike messenger in New York, a chain of events was unleashed, and the two fell for each other... hard. His work started to suffer. She started to question her whole lifestyle. But are they willing to make compromises to make it work, or will their hearts be broken?
I'm not too sure what to make of this novel. It feels like opposites attract kinda story, but the struggle feels as if it's not all there. There's no "long and arduous slide into hell", so to speak. The flip from "hi" to "madly in love" feels a bit too fast, and not quite enough of a struggle.
