3.75 – 4 Stars

The cover was the wrong marketing for this book. You got to love Kindle Unlimited when they have the audio version to listen to. I had this audio book for sometime, but I wasn’t really interested in listening to it because (based on the cover) it looked a little dark, serious and angsty. Ummm… no.

Do not be fooled by the cover, to my surprise, it’s a really light-hearted book which made me like it even more. I was in the mood to listen to something light and bam, I got what I wanted.

Honestly this book wasn’t anything out of the ordinary nor it was it great, but it was nice to have it on the background and I really liked the narrators which makes all the difference.

If you are looking for a smutty read, this is NOT your book. If you are looking for a book where it’s mainly about the main couple, this is NOT your book. This is the first book in the series and I think the author used this book as building block for the rest of the series.

You will get a lot of character development on the secondary characters, that might or might not be your jam. For me (and usually it isn’t) it was jam. I really liked listening to the brothers (who at times acted really stupid) they were entertaining to me.

Miranda has had a HUGE chip on her shoulder against Rich and when you find out the reason, it’s really stupid, but that wasn’t the bases of the story so it didn’t bother me. I liked that Rich was trying to get Miranda and I’m always a fan when the Hero chases after the Heroine.

Was there chemistry between the two main characters? No, not really, but (and I’m shocked as you are) it didn’t bother me. Was Rich a billionaire? Yeah, but did it matter? Not really. Besides the fact he flies private and he’s more well off than Miranda, that’s about it.

To me, this book was the introduction to the series, even though it’s a “stand-alone” about Miranda and Rich. I didn’t really care about them and I was just enjoying listening to the background noise.

I’m looking forward to Cade’s story, I found him the funniest in the book.
