3.75 StarsKatrine is a newly divorce single mother who’s ready to experience the single life. In order to start her career she begins working  for a major company through the help of a friend. She’s expects to be working for an older man but instead she meets Alexander (Xander) Abbot Jr. a handsome guy with green eyes, who will be her boss for two months.  Right from the start Xander is a complete ass to her with his rude comments but underneath it all he’s sweet. Thinking two can play this game Katrine throws her sarcastic remarks right back at him. Xander has no intention of backing off, because this just intrigue’s him more about Katrine. The chemistry between them is instant and there is no way to avoid it. With the physical attraction for one another they both decide to spend time together to see where things will lead. What harm could come by spending two months with a guy with no strings attached?I liked that Katrine uses this relationship as a rebound but it bothered me that she second guessed herself around Xander. She feels that she isn’t good enough for him. Xander is aware of this so he reassures her that she’s beautiful and has a kind heart.  Xander has some issues of his own but only shares some with Katrine. Throughout their short, no strings attached relationship, Katrine and Xander struggle with their emotions for one another because they come to face the fact that it will be ending soon. Will they stay together or will they not?I enjoyed reading Rebound. It was nice and sweet. The main characters were funny, smart, and sexy. I liked that Katrine is a strong person, but there were times that I felt she was a little childish with Xander. There’s another man, Ian, who comes into play but I felt she never gave him the chance. As for Xander, I wanted to know more about him but was only given a glimpse of his life. Her support group throughout her journey as a single woman is her sister and friends. These women cracked me up with all their up and downs about men. The ending left me with what’s to come of Katrine, but in order to find you will need to read Resilient :) ~Cindy
