I think that her attraction to Trevor is pretty much that he was there and was interested in her. He seemed to be as passionate as a wet sponge, and to be something of a judgmental mama's boy (telling her how to dress when she met his mother and not liking her to be taller than him). He's hardly the type for a woman to be passionately in love with. It seemed as though it was her first relationship with a man, and that she really didn't know what to expect from it. When he turns into a butthurt, I'm-going-to-get-back-at-you teenage scumbag, it's not surprising that she realizes that she was never in love with him in the first place.
Indeed. But that was the problem. Majority of the love interests in the harlequin have this kind of personality. It was as if the author wanted to show the ML or FL is more superior than the love interest. For me, it's okay if you're lesser than that. Human is not perfect after all
The only thing that I'm unsatisfied with was why there are no real love between ML/FL and a potential love interest in harlequin? And if there are, that potential love interest must have been dead. Look at this story for example. Trevor turns out to be Mr Hyde but the FL didn't left heartbroken at all. I'm much prefer for her to be left heartbroken and ML tried to mend her broken heart while the two of them fall in love with each other.
