Penthouse Prince by Virginia Nelson
2.0

Eh, I've definitely read better.

To be clear, I didn't hate it. I finished it because I was curious to see how it all came together. There were interesting subplots but on the whole, it didn't grab me and pull me in. Both Camden and Jeanie have some skewed ideas on what love is and that grated on my nerves.

It just...fell kind of flat for me. It was interesting - and short - enough to keep me going, but I didn't engage in the story. I didn't feel for the characters. And self-awareness was a long time coming for both of the main characters.

I don't know that I'd recommend this to anyone.

SpoilerAlso, the sex bothered me. She's a virgin but she's fantastic at sex? Come on. And Camden, being all about business, didn't make moves to wear a condom, ever? And Jeanie didn't insist? The author was asking for too much suspension of disbelief there. That's about when I mentally checked out.
