My Review:
If you've read other books the author duo Christina Lauren, then you know what to expect from this one. Two people are attracted to each other, but are put in difficult situations where they really shouldn't like each other. Mix in some humor and hot romance, and you've got this book.
In this story, Evie meets Carter as a setup by mutual friends at a party. Both are Hollywood agents, but still seem to hit it off. Little do they know that Evie's company has just bought out Carter's company. As the two companies merge, Evie and Carter become co-workers/competitors forced to work together with the possibility of only one of them keep their job. Of course, they struggle to not only work together but hide their attraction to one another.
Evie and Carter have strong chemistry in this story. It was entertaining to read about how they struggled to make things work both in and out of the office. I also really liked the character of Evie as she has a great sense of humor (Carter calls her Evil, which I love!) and is very competitive. She's been dealt a lot of junk in her job, but she still rises above it and is successful.
The book is a cute and light read for anyone who just wants to have a little fun and escape reality for a bit. I really enjoy reads like this as I can just sit back and be entertained. This book is the perfect type of read when work or life is very stressful, and you may not have a lot of extra energry, but you just need a break. I've read several books by Christina Lauren and have enjoyed them (My favorite might be The Unhoneymooners. Wow, that was a weird word to write out!), so I knew what to expect for this one. It was a quick read too, which I appreciated as I didn't feel like I labored throught the book. Overall, a fun book and just what I expected from this pair of authors.
How Much Coffee Was Needed?
I read this book during Spring Break, so I was able to stay up later and get up later in the morning. I did stay up late one night trying to finish this book, so I definitely needed extra coffee. This book was worth 2 extra cups of coffee for me. It was a fun story, and I just wanted to keep reading.
