Summary: When Tate Collins meets airline pilot Miles Archer, she knows it isn’t 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.

Review:
This is me after reading Ugly Love.
The story was fine, okay, not bad, maybe even good but that’s what disappoints me terribly. Colleen’s books aren’t supposed to be fine, okay, not bad, maybe even good. They are supposed to be unique, beautiful and heart-warming. They are supposed to steal a place in your heart with it’s beauty.
Ugly Love is not bad. It’s one of those ordinary romance books you get stuck with when you have nothing else to read. I’m disappointed maybe because I expected more from Colleen. But that’s only because her other books were unique, incredible, powerful and well- written.
Reasons why I got irritated at times while reading it:
1-I can’t get connected to the story or MC’s. Even if I did, the 5 year old Miles POV breaks it and gets me back to square one.
2-There is no beautiful little scenes that I usually get from Colleen’s other books, where here there’s only sex.
3-Finding Cinderella has more character development than Ugly Love (considering the fact that Finding Cinderella is a novella).
4-Miles POV is a like a 5 year old's. It did help the readers to understand Miles’ reactions but the not well- written part really bugged me.
5-Tate easily gave in to Miles. She was humiliated and she should have shown some anger in this conversation. She should have talked what she thought at that time because it would have made some sense.
“Are you sleeping with him?” he asks, finally resting his eyes on mine as they search for truth.
That’s none of your business, Miles.
“No,” I say instead.
“Have you kissed him?”
Still not your business, Miles.
“No.”
Things that kept me reading this book:
1-Cap. He’s the best and I like him more than the main characters. I love how he doesn’t give advice but say something related to it for others to understand it on their own.
2-Ian. I wish he could have got more pages. He’s the best friend everyone should have. I would be willing read about him more.
3-Corbin. Best over protective brother ever. I loved him too.
I loved the whole Pilot deal too. The Pilot thing was supposed to be Colleen’s uniqueness in this book. While in her other books, the uniqueness she created would have blended well along with the story and the characters here it looks like the uniqueness have thrust upon it which resulted in not a good product.
I was as I said pretty disappointed after reading this but then later I saw Colleen posting the link to the Epilogue of Finding Cinderella. After reading it I remembered why I love her books so much. I swore that I won’t have any expectations for her future books. I just hope that it’s better than Ugly Love.
Ugly Love is just an ordinary book.
