Description



Book Synopsis



#1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover's heart-wrenching love story proves that attraction at first sight can be messy.

When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she doesn't think it's love at first sight. They wouldn't even go so far as to consider themselves friends. The only thing Tate and Miles have in common is an undeniable mutual attraction. Once their desires are out in the open, they realize they have the perfect set-up. He doesn't want love, she doesn't have time for love, so that just leaves the sex. Their arrangement could be surprisingly seamless, as long as Tate can stick to the only two rules Miles has for her.

Never ask about the past.
Don't expect a future.

They think they can handle it, but realize almost immediately they can't handle it at all.

Hearts get infiltrated.
Promises get broken.
Rules get shattered.
Love gets ugly.

"By the end of this book, my heart was aching and rejoicing at the same time from the countless emotions it had been exposed to.

"Colleen is an artist. She has this uncanny ability to take normal, everyday words and somehow turn them into the most beautiful poetry I've ever read. The beauty of her lyrical writing style made me teary-eyed countless times. She can take something so simple and make it so powerful."--Nestled in a Book, blog review

"Colleen Hoover does it again. She always creates a story that gets under your skin and hits you right in the heart. Ugly Love was no exception. Miles and Tate have a very intense story to be told and only Colleen Hoover could do it justice."--Readers Live a 1000 Lives, blog tour review

"Colleen Hoover has done it again. Her words have wholly altered me, mind, body, and spirit. I can't explain what I've done or where I've been the past few hours, and the only thing that is in my mind is WOW."--The Scarlet Siren, blog tour review

"If you were to only read one book this year, make that book Ugly Love.... It's definitely my favorite book of all time, and that's not a phrase that I use lightly."--Kayla's Reads & Reviews, blog tour review

A must-read book of the year! I loved every word, I felt every moment, and I will never forget this story. I don't give out a lot of 6 star ratings (in fact this will be the first one I've given this year) but the truth is that this book went above and beyond. The story was powerful, the writing was stunning, and the way every single piece of it was woven together was simply breathtaking."--Aestas, blog review

Colleen Hoover just demolished me. Completely and 100% blew me away...not that I'm surprised or anything because she never ceases to amaze me.... I was pulled in from the beginning...and I loved every second of it!"--True Story Book Blog, blog tour review

Least favorite Colleen Hoover

Love all Colleen Hoover books, except this one. Annoyed by all the characters in this one, could be insightful to some but still doesn’t justify personalities

Typical

I was excited to read this book after it was recommended by a YouTuber. I was let down as I felt this book to be the typical, cheesy book about a mousy girl and a jerk of a guy that she lets walk all over her. Not my type of book. Also not the type of book I’d want younger women reading.

Spicy and Sad

The book itself is very wholesome with a mix of sadness and it gets into the deep feelings of the characters involved. Ugly Love is a very short read but it leaves and impactful view on the lives of people who have lost someone important to them. This book contains mature scenes so I wouldnt recommend to young reader but I would recommend to Young Adults.

Fresh Postpartum Mommas Beware

Warning Spoiler Included: This is a well written book, which is why I gave it 5 stars. It had a happy ending…However, there is a situation in the book where a young couple loses their newborn on the drive home from the hospital in a terrible car accident where they drove off a bridge. The father saved the mother instead of the newborn and he deals with the guilt in the book and readers follow him on that journey. This book really focuses on that event. My son is now a year old, but if I had read this when he was just born and while I was dealing with postpartum anxiety/intrusive thoughts, it would’ve just made that struggle worse. I am doing a lot better now, but honestly still cried reading it. So just a heads up to any mommas who may be dealing with the same thing. I wouldn’t recommend reading this if you are.
