Well... I'm not going to rate this one. Pushed myself to a little past 50%, then skipped 25% then skimmed the last part just so I could get an idea of what happened and how it ended.. It is a cliffhanger but this one just didn't hold my interest well enough to read the next one. It's got the formula I love .. sexy billionaire, steamy sex, etc... but I just could never really feel the connection with Neil and Sophie and the story surrounding them just didn't grab me. Oh well.. it happens.

Me too! Can't believe we didn't know about this one yet.. I just hope it's as good as it sounds. I'm a complete sucker for this type!! I've already downloaded it.. there's a 2nd book too The Girlfriend


message 4: by [deleted user] (new)

I agree with EVERYTHING you both just said. :)


message 5: by [deleted user] (new)

PLUS, it's a 300+ page book, which I LOVE.


Jamie *Gypsy Smut-a-teer* Oh yay, Jenna, I was wondering about the length. I agree Jamie this one does sound like something that completely sucks me in. Hope it's a good one!!


Lady Vigilante (Feifei) oooh! This one looks really good! Watching your status updates :)

Marie At 10% and not feeling it either...


Jamie *Gypsy Smut-a-teer* Awe, sorry you didn't like it. :( That does happen though. Hopefully the next read will be better for you. :)


Tokies not big on cliffhangers lately.. im gonna call them "tacky Cliffhangers". where it just stops and some big moment happens. not playing that game with these author's if the books not cheap or free

It had alllll kinds of potential.. but ended up falling flat.

Even though I skimmed the last part I still paid attention to the ending and it IS a cliffhanger but really not a bad one.... But still not enough to intrigue me to go further with the series. However, I'm sure many will probably like this one and continue with the series. It just didn't do it for me.... :(


Tokies it's a fine line .. i have the book so i'll read it but i trust your review on things better then my book clubs.. i hate walking into something .. dumping a few hours into it and it turns into a book bust


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

I agree, when I find myself "trying" to read and then getting sidetracked im obviously not into a book. Signed out of that and started bad things again by R.K lilley
finished her trilogy for the third time in less than three days... thats when you love a book :) haha
