My first impression of Kyle was HOLY a**bag womanizing douchenozzle but throughout the story I seriously fell in love with him! Lanie has grown up with a sister and mother who put her down left and right. Cassie, her sister, constantly explains how Lanie is a two and how she can't wear this, can't wear that, shouldn't do this, shouldn't do that. YUCK WHAT A WITCH. Can I get a mack truck to run Cassie over with please?!Although Lanie and Cassie were both left a large sum of money, Lanie chose to use the money to further her education and became a fantastic attorney while Cassie decided to blow it all on clothes and makeup. As Cassie has run out of her trust fund she has moved in with Lanie (since her married boyfriend kicked her out of the apartment he was paying for) and she is now dating Brad while constantly trying to find out how much he makes from Lanie (gold digging parasite). Lanie would do anything for her family and takes so much abuse from them but refuses to turn her back on her family..except she is in love with her sister's boyfriend and isn't above convincing Brad's best friend, Kyle, into helping her make Brad fall in love with her.I felt so bad for Lanie, she was so blunt with how she viewed herself and was not ashamed to call herself ugly to Kyle. Lanie and Kyle carry on a 'fake' relationship so Brad can see her as 'desirable' but as the story continues and you begin to see the real in not only Kyle and Lanie but also in Brad and Cassie...will Lanie still want Brad and will Brad finally see Lanie the way she has always wanted?I absolutely loved this story, it kept me completely hooked the entire time. Lanie and Kyle were amazing together and I fell in love with them during their 'fake' relationship. I couldn't get enough of Kyle and how he was determined to help Lanie become the woman she was meant to be.
