This book was your pretty average and mid straight romance. 
So predictable and not something I fully engaged with. It only got as high a rating as I liked the couple and their development together.

Rich girl meets local townie. It’s a book with some self discovery along with romance and a little bit of a revenge subplot.

This was my first Elle Kennedy and I enjoyed it! I liked the characters and story. A couple parts had me rolling my eyes but that happens. The only thing that bugged me was that the conflict was resolved literally on the last pages. I like to have an additional scene or 2 after the resolution to smooth out the ending. But maybe that's just my preference.

<Relationen mellem hovedpersonerne kunne havde været mere langtrukkent starten. The bump i realation kunne havde været lidt tidligere så forsoningen ikke var så forhastet>

Girl meets boy from wrong side of the tracks. Boy is an ass and uses her. She falls for him and her reforms but is still an ass.

So fun and sexy. Love the couple’s dynamic. Really liked how him being a trade worker was portrayed as such a positive thing! And that it’s okay to drop out of college and do what’s right for you.
