Good Things

Good Things is the debut novel by Mia King. After five years of her own TV show in Seattle called 'Live Simple,' Deidre's show is cancelled. She also looses her apartment the same week and is conveniently offered the use of a country home by a gorgeous, rich stanger she happens to meet.

Its all a little too good to be true for my taste, which seems to be a theme in the books I've been reading lately. What are supposed to be struggles and hardships for Deidre in the following months, seem like more abundance heaped onto her supposedly challenging life.

I never really bought into any of it, or cared about the characters. King has some promise as a writer if she digs a little deeper next time.
