Becoming Elite by Tricia Owens

3.0

I'm not sure what to say about this. Everything is just slightly off. I liked Ethan, though he's very naive and I'm not sure I understand him. I liked Max but it's very cold and robotic. It's supposed to be "mysterious" and "magnetic" but it falls short IMO. I liked Ethan's boss and co-worker. I wish we'd gotten to see more of Max's life outside of Ethan. I didn't particularly like the randomness of all the set up for their relationship. Max is a PI but wants to join the FBI but also models. I HATE the way the FBI is ripped from him. I would've preferred seeing him get in and Max having to put on his big boy pants and DEAL WITH IT. I really dislike how Max treats Ethan regarding the arrangement. I don't get why Ethan is just going with it. I do think they had good chemistry. When it was just them in a scene, I enjoyed it. They had good rapport and chemistry. I don't know if I'll continue the series or not. I'm interested but kind of dread it at the same time.
