Mary is
anxious about her bar exam results. Tom will stop at nothing to be a pro golf
champion. Yet all they can think of is each other.
Their
relationship has been nothing but a series of struggles from an intense
obsession to a golf game to a brief affair with a boss. Yet, even though the
two seem distant and awkward, Mary and Tom have a certain, unknown connection.
Could they get back to the way they were? Could they have their happily ever
after? Of course not! Not without going through the test. And what bigger test
than another man, like Dr. McDreamy? Or how about an unexpected pregnancy?
Really, the whole story is a series of tests.
Eventually
though I got kind of tired of hearing Mary whining and crying over Tom—how she
still loves him, how he can be so cold to her, how she can make it work with
him after all this, yadda-yadda-yadda. I got so tired of it that I didn’t
really care if they ended up together.
The
beginning was compelling, especially after finding out that Mary got
impregnated by her boss (oy,) but then it sort of fades with the characters
constantly hanging onto a love that’s ended. It becomes repetitious and a nuisance.
Overall,
this was another good work by Gregg Bell, but not as good as the last one, Jamie's Gamble.
My rating: 3.5 stars
