Query: A Sad Parody of Romance

I was more than disappointed with this book. I have come to expect only the highest quality story from Dara Joy but this book seems to have been written to meet a deadline. The characters were poorly developed. The whole "women rule the world" premise came off as a parody and all the other-world slang was distracting. If I did not know any better I would think this was someone's first novel and certainly not worthy of being a hard back. Don't bother to buy it. If you have to read it, check it out from your local library.
