So I read the excerpt for Love to Last a Lifetime on Amazon.com. Here's the first paragraph:

>From the moment I laid eyes on Greta, I knew she was meant to be loved by me for a lifetime. She'd been talking to my best friend's girlfriend and her smile drew me in like a moth to a flame. Who would have ever guessed our story would be one for the ages?

That is, without a doubt, the single worst opening paragraph I've read in a long time. There are so many issues with it, I don't know where to begin.
