Hm. I missed this one before. I'm not normally into this genre, but after bothering to give the trailer a chance, this entry actually looks better than most. I like SOME of the writing and voice acting here and love the general atmosphere. What I'm looking for out this genre is something quite rare for romance novels to even attempt: life-like, believable characters and relationships. What I usually find in the trailers though is little more than a truck load of sex appeal obviously aimed at a male consumer demographic, matched with extremely fetishizing (and bad, as in utterly nonsensical) writing. This looks more like a sappy, preposterous love story aimed at actual lesbians. Maybe this could actually be a 7/10 experience worth trying in my book, maybe. It ain't the next Butterfly Soup I'm pretty sure, but maybe worth trying. Good to know about!
