Alexandra was one of the biggest brats I have ever met. She does one of the most stupidest things on the job, for a minor reason and wants to put all the blame on the person who saves not only her ass, but her family's as well.
She likes to claim that she can take care of herself and she does not need help fighting her won battles. But in actuality, she starts her own fights and expect others to fix it for her when it becomes to much.
Alexandra did not speak to me if independent woman like the author intended. It's was difficult for me to actually like her and just when I was getting there, she goes and hurts sweat Eli with her mean words.
Eli on the other hand is a totally different story. I do not understand the attraction between the two, but they do make a cute couple. Eli did all the fighting in the relationship. All Alexandra did was complain and want to walk away and it was Eli who had to be strong for the both of them. I really like Eli.
This book was fun, especially the part when Alexandra realized that she was a giant brat of a woman. The book has a healthy dose of humor, which I really love in books and even with me nothing liking a half of the couple of Eli and Alexandra, I still quite enjoyed their love story.
HAPPY READING!
