Review:
I loved this book! Kept me glued to the pages all the time.
I liked Alexa and Nick's relationship and how it grew in depth with each passing day.
I didn't like Nick at first, in fact I often wanted to hit him with a baseball bat in the head. You couldn't even start to count the times he screwed up or almost did. But as the hard wall around his heart started to lower I got to like him bit by bit. The scene with him and the little girl, Taylor, was priceless.
And there were some steamy hot scenes between Nick and Alexa.... wow! I don't even know how I kept in check my own hormones then. My blood was boiling in my veins. I love it when a book has that effect on me!
The only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars is that it wasn't very surprising. I often kind of knew already what would happen before it actually happened. But still, a very good read and I enjoyed it!
