Below is augly loveSummary of the main plot points.CON SPOILERS:
Tate Collins is a 23-year-old registered nurse studying to be a registered nurse and working in a hospital. She moves from San Diego to San Francisco to save money by living in a high-rise apartment building with her overprotective brother Corbin, a successful pilot.
Upon arrival, she first meets Cap, the charming 80-year-old elevator operator, who immediately becomes friends with her.
Later, at her brother's apartment, she meets airline pilot Miles Archer, drunk and moaning "Rachel". It's not exactly love at first sight, as Miles is rude to Tate, but they try to start over afterwards.
Tate is focused on his work and studies, while Miles is very private about his personal life and his past.
But after spending Thanksgiving with the Collins family, where Tate is nursing an injured Miles back to health, he kisses her. It's now clear that Tate and Miles have an undeniable attraction to each other. The problem? She doesn't have time for love and he doesn't want love.
They end up agreeing to a "Friends with Benefits" or "No Strings Attached" deal meant to be purely physical. Miles sets the ground rules that Tate won't question his past or seek a future with him, but Tate struggles to make his own rules for the arrangement.
Because they are so physical, the narrative alternates between Tate's perspective in the present and Miles' perspective six years ago when he was in high school.
There he met and fell in love with the new girl Rachel, only to discover that she was actually the daughter of his father's new girlfriend, who Miles believes was his father's mistress while his mother was dying.
When Rachel becomes pregnant, they tell her parents, only to discover that her parents got married in secret and are now half-siblings. Her parents aren't happy with them, but as Rachel's due date approaches, they have graduated from high school, are living in family college housing, and are settling their family feud.
Meanwhile, in the present, Tate falls deeply in love with Miles and wants to be the one to "change" him while continuing to follow the rules he's set and keeping Tate at arm's length at all times except in physical situations.
Tate continues to believe that something deeper is bothering Miles and that, deep down, he's a good person. She seeks Cap's advice as she deals with his growing feelings. Also, Corbin finds out about her relationship and accepts her, although initially overprotective and angry.
When Miles is jealous that Tate is studying with a fellow student, she thinks it might be a sign that he's breaking down her walls. But when she confesses her feelings, he reminds her of her rules.
Eventually, Tate moves into her own apartment, and she and Miles stop communicating.
Corbin and Ian then encourage Miles to come to terms with his past by visiting Rachel.
In the past, love turns ugly. Rachel gave birth to a son, Clayton, and on her way home from the hospital, the car crashed into a lake. Miles saved Rachel but couldn't save her baby who died. Overwhelmed with grief, Rachel left Miles. It was this sequence of events that made Miles a broken man in the present.
Miles visits Rachel in the present. Now married with a daughter, she claims that she has found happiness again.

Below is my personal review ofugly love– the good, the bad and the… ugly (wink):
ugly loveis one ofColleen Hoover's best booksOverall, he is loved by readers around the world for the heartbreaking events Miles went through and must face in order to find love and happiness again with Tate, who, despite his lack of emotions towards her and his desire to a purely physical relationship in love. with the.
There were things I liked and disliked. First, I liked the fact that Miles and Tate were experiencing "real" life together. They weren't just two beautiful people who couldn't keep their hands off each other. As the title suggests, real life and true love aren't pretty, they're ugly.
As with most othersBooks by Colleen Hoover, it was also fast-paced, hot and very emotional.
On the negative side, I felt that Miles's character was explored in great detail, whereas Tates's was not. Because of this, I had a hard time seeing her as "the one" for Miles. I thought he was the oneforevermore in love with Rachel.
It also seemed unlikely that Miles would have "arrived" at Tate without a LOT of therapy and worked on himself beyond what the book showed.
While I liked that Miles had a lot of personal history and that I read the book page by page, I was justknewsomething very, very wrong must have kept him so closed off in the present, I also felt his backstory was a bit overdramatized, especially at such a young age.
It's not impossible that it was all his truth, but it was definitely unlikely. I usually struggle with plots that seem to involve every imaginable traumatic event in a character's life.
I also didn't like that Tate was "that girl" who believed she could change a man just by loving him enough. It happens all too often in real life and almost never ends well. So, I really didn't like the message that loving someone who isn't in a place for mature love will eventually make them a great match.
Finally, a positive ending, I thought.ugly loveit had an amazing supporting cast, from Cap to Corbin to Ian. They were all interesting additions to the Miles and Tate story and made the book all the more memorable.
