The mass had spread through my whole body, throbbing dizzying me. This happened a lot. Like, twice a day, thereabouts. Hence the gut intimacy. On top of that, besides one moment at the very beginning of the book, the two main characters didn't even enjoy eachother until 80 percent in. Cassie was dating someone else for the majority of the book. And her decision to break up with that someone else was just selfishly motivated and half-worked. Then her and Luke magically fall in love. Cassie is diagnosed with Type II Diabetes towards the beginning of the novel. The medical bills that she amassed as a result are so crippling that she decides the only way she can overcome them is not to get a second job, despite being college educated and an experienced paralegal, but to defraud the U.S. Government and marry a soldier for his health insurance and extra spousal benefits. Luke has his own financial woes as a result of pissing off his former friends who are drug dealers and decides this is a marvelous idea.

Cuando Luke vuelve a Estados Unidos herido de gravedad y con una mínima capacidad de movilizarse por su cuenta, Cassie decide abandonarlo día y noche en su departamento para que se las arregle como pueda y se traslada con su novio, al que no le quedó otra que confesarle que tiene un marido. Shrestha, Naman (29 July 2022). "Where Was Netflix's Purple Hearts Filmed?". The Cinemaholic. Archived from the original on 11 August 2022 . Retrieved 4 August 2022.As if readers could forgot that Cassie has diabetes (because she brings it up all the time) there is a large portion of an entire chapter during which Cassie shares all the food that shes eating. Even when Luke is meeting with someone about his medical problems, she makes it a point to tell the other person that she has diabetes for no reason. D'Alessandro, Anthony (2021-08-04).

The best part? There's literally no ending. They say they love eachother... then she goes on tour (again... what? How insanely selfish.) While he's facing charges of fraud. That's it. Just like see ya bye. No epilogue. No even closure to the story. The Romance: Could two people have less chemistry? I honestly don’t know if it’s possible. I kept waiting for the moment I would want them to get together and it just never came. Poor Luke needs to get his life together and then find someone a hell of a lot more interesting than Cassie. La verdadera red flag de esta novela es Cassie Salazar y no Luke Morrow, lo que me lleva a mi siguiente punto.

Purple Hearts eBook by Tess Wakefield | Official Publisher

I’m actually really disappointed. I skimmed almost all of the book. The whole premise of the book started really late and it took me 70% of the book to actually FEEL something for the characters other than annoyance. I fell asleep 𝘴𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 while reading, it was ridiculous. Así podría seguir por horas pero creo que entienden mi punto. Cassie nunca se arrepiente por todo lo que hace ni reconoce haber accionado mal... ¿Quién puede empatizar con una protagonista así y encima tener el tupé de señalarlo a él como el malo de la relación? Perdón, pero yo no puedo. No se trata de si es una mujer o un hombre, es un personaje horrible.Its noted that the author did consult with people who suffered from type II diabetes, so as to portray the illness in a real way. But I didnt find this particular choice of illness to make a whole lot of sense. There are so many other illnesses the author (or rather Alloy Entertainment since this company came up with the concept of this novel) could have chosen to use in this novel to make this a little bit more believable, especially in the area of cost. I originally only bought the book because my favorite actress Sofia Carson is going to play Cassie in a film adaptation. My expectations weren’t very high since I just wanted to know the plot. But this book was so good that I read it in 2 days. The characters Cassie and Luke have very real struggles and passions, and following their thoughts and emotions through the first-person narrative was so engaging that I couldn’t put the book down. There are some plot twists that I didn’t expect, so there wasn’t a dull moment while reading. I have already recommended the book to my best friend and I can only recommend to everyone who reads it that it is worth reading. Durante todos esos meses en los que Luke se encuentra como soldado activo en el exterior, Cassie se pone de novia con el baterista de su banda sin contarle a Luke ese detalle (a pesar de que él no le iba a reprochar nada siempre y cuando fuera cuidadosa porque es consciente de que su relación no era "real") y sin contarle a su novio que está casada legalmente con un militar. O sea, engaña a ambos al mismo tiempo. Cassie proposes to Frankie, a childhood friend and Luke's bunkmate, to benefit from the health insurance granted to military spouses. Frankie explains he plans to marry his sweetheart Riley. Although Luke overhears and advises against a fraudulent marriage, he realizes both their financial difficulties could be solved by getting married as Luke will make more money and Cassie will have access to military spouse healthcare. They agree to marry before Luke deploys and share the extra pay. Their plan is that after a year, they will file for divorce.
