☆✮ My Review ✮☆
This novel was just okay for me. It felt very rushed and unrealistic. Then again, people do a lot of crazy things for money.
Anyone can guess what this story is about just by reading the story synopsis. Rica is from a high society Italian family that wants her to settle down, have a baby before she's 25, and her beau HAS TO be Italian as well.
Enter Luke. Luke is everything Rica's family does not want for her. He's NOT Italian... he's Scottish... and his questionable background and motives spell trouble with a capital T. Just what is he hiding? And can his non-Italian break the boundaries of pure Italian breeding?
So.....basically that's the story in a jiffy. Just so you guys know, it does move really fast. It almost seems like an insta-love even though it's not. It's just an instant attraction leads to the male lead deciding that he's going to fulfill the female lead's contract needs by the second meeting and everything taking off from there.
I was really baffled by Rica's family and their outrageous demands of their daughter. I mean, wow. And Rica and Luke. Even if it falls to money, I was like "woah" to them deciding to commit to those terms when knowing nothing about each other.
Anyway, I think this book might appeal to lots but I was Switzerland on it.
My Rating:
♥♥♥
☆✮ Excerpt ✮☆
He’s headed for second base, giving me a wink. Cocky son of a.... I start running toward him, my hand outstretched with the ball, ready to tag his ass. God, what an ass. I’m a fairly fast runner since I jog all the time, but he starts pulling ahead, so I push harder. I start gaining on him and when he looks at the base, I know what he’s going to do. Just as he begins to slide.… I dive.
“YOU’RE OUT!”
I’d feel a little like gloating but when I look up from my position, his head is cocked to one side and he’s smiling widely. “Feel free to stay down there a while.” He winks. I feel the heat of my blush as I push myself back from having my face right between his legs. Just like his large muscles, his cock is freaking huge! And hard as a rock. He rubs his scruffy chin. “Uh, you might want to get that dirt off. Right about here.” I give him a dirty look.
