Until I read the chapter summaries from the book I came to realize the premise of the entire series. If the script writers would have started with the scene of the FL laying in the street with rain pouring down and how the ML picks her up and brings her to a hotel to sober her up but gets seduced by her. Their passionate one night stand only to have her disappear the next morning............. the rest of the series would've have a clearer understanding why the events that later happened.......... happened.

The ansgst and drama that formed between them would have been clearly understood years later when they meet again and they have to deal with each other and how they learn to intermingle into each others lives.

It should be noted that the Series changed the books outcome, the book had the Love / Hate become more Hate in the end where as in the series the Hate /Love became Love.

As is the case with most of these melodramas the ending is with them kissing and looking to the heavens, however it should have been taken further especially after everything they had gone through to get there.
