Review: Loved Alex and Lexi
Rating: 4 out of 5

I started reading A Twist if Fate on a plane ride home and almost put it down again just as I started. It just seemed like not my kind of story. I didn't like Lexi at first. The whole beginning with Matt and her throwing herself at him I didn't really like. I don't mind ladies who know what they want and sleep with lots of men. I don't mind if that is what they want. I don't like when it is some way to fill a void or try and make themselves feel better about themselves. This is what Lexi did, and the way it was handled at first I just really didn't like. When you find out what happened to her she keeps saying how she is fine now, how he doesn't have any control over her anymore, how everything is fine. It is not. She is not fine. She keeps pushing away a real relationship and was emotionally detached, but she never really acknowledges that she is still not fine after what happened to her. I kept expecting it, and yes by the end she did change some, but she still thinks she is completely fine and he is not effecting her anymore. That was the one thing I did not like about this story. Though she did say she has baggage, but she still never really addresses how much it still effects her.I quickly started to enjoy the book though. I really liked Alex and I loved how he and Lexi had their banter and they were really cute together. Alex tries to do whatever Lexi wants. You can tell he is head over heels for her and will do whatever he can to be with her and make her happy. They are so great together and I just wanted everything to be wonderful for them.There are lots of parts in the middle where you are just like come on Lexi! You are being so stupid! But it was understandable for me why she was doing it so I didn't hate it. I just wanted her to get everything straightened out. I wanted her to be happy, and Alex makes her happy. I wanted Alex to have everything as well as he is just so perfect for her!The ending was just so sweet! I loved it. I loved how Lexi finally figures things out and the way she confronts Alex was amazing. I just really like them together and I was so happy with the ending. I know there are a few more books in the series so I can't wait to read and see what they are about.This review was originally posted to [...]
