Queen B’s Decree: This one didn’t jive with me. I think it has to do with my inability to forgive fictional characters.
I really didn’t believe that Oliver loved Kaitlynn. His actions and decisions never struck me as someone in love. In fact, the more I type here, the more annoyed I am with him. He broke Kaitlynn’s heart and he didn’t deserve her. SPOILER HERE, but how do you date the sister of the girl you’re in love with? Do you not realize how hurtful that would be? That’s not something that is easily forgotten.
And Kaitlynn? I’m mostly disappointed with her that she seemed unable to move forward. She seemed like a doormat – too passive to stand up for herself.
And that’s not the kind of characters I like. So not a winner for me.
