Desciption
Life changed for me in three days - the day my mother died, the day my dad married Candice and the day I met Kennedy Jenner. From the moment I saw him, I was drawn to him. Like a moth to a flame, I couldn't keep away from the irresistible heat of the fire. That knowing, confident smile...those beautiful pale blue eyes...and those dimples....simply delicious. Who could resist such a beautiful strong man?Hope York transformed herself from boring small town girl into a flawless beauty on the outside. But inside, she never changed. Kennedy Jenner was a successful, wealthy and jaw dropping handsome man that could have whatever he wanted, on his own terms. And he wanted Hope. But would he still want her after he saw her for who she really was, instead of what she carefully planned for everyone to see? And will his own secret past stand in his way for getting what he really wants?
Review
“I looked up to see the next guest approaching the desk for check in. My heart skipped a beat and I stuttered “Wwwww..Welcome to The Monet, how may I help you?”Wow. This is insulting to womankind. We aren't dogs. We don't drool. We can see gorgeous men and the creme de la creme on the internet and in day to day life without tripping over ourselves and being rendered incapable of speech. Without having our tongues hanging out of our mouths.It was a really bad regurgitation/imitation of FSOG and Bared to You (which I love). Remember the way Gideon wanted Eva and asked her if she was sleeping with anyone? Well here we have the poor imitation. "Are you sleeping with anyone?” The way he asked the question was so direct but relaxed, he could have been asking for directions.The question caught me so off guard, I stared up at him in confusion. "Am I sleeping with someone?” He took one step closer, “Yes, that is the question I asked. Would you like to know if I am sleeping with anyone before you answer?”I took one step back and a deep breath. “Why is it any of your business if I am sleeping with anyone Mr. Jenner?”This had really crap writing. With the obvious trope of a heroine being a prude vs the sexually confident alpha man. He stops whatever fuck-buddy arrangement he has. They are lusty. He wipes her down intimately afterwards. She wears his big shirt. She has the typical bitchy step mom, shes annoying, she's secretly insecure, etc etc. But this heroine has no brains. She agrees to literally anything he says. Stay with me? Okay. Kiss me? Okay. Strip for me? Okay Poop on me? Okay. Let me buy you lots of shit because I have money and want to lavish you? Okay but I have good clothes. Let me? Okay, you are the controller of my fate and destiny. What's worse is that she doesn't google him. In this day and age it isn't f*cking invasive. A smart woman would, but noo, she wants to learn about it from him. Eventually she does...after he temporarily kicks her to the curb. His little sad past is revealed... “The organization was founded in honor of Kelly Preston, Mr. Jenner’s high school sweetheart. Ms. Preston disappeared seven years ago, at the age of 15 while walking to a friend’s home.”He's 32 now. How is this 7 years ago? Unless the article she's reading is old. Because he couldn't have been 25 to a 15 year old girl. Plus it's mentioned he was 15. I didn't appreciate the inconsistencies. The grammar was atrocious. I'm willing to forgive the author because I've read books of hers before, and this was really, really, really bad.
