I don’t write many reviews but wanted to on this one to tell readers to save their money. Even if I don’t like a book in the beginning, I will always finish it. The writing is awful and the story makes no sense. There are many typographical errors, which I don’t mind cuz I’m not a writer myself, but it’s to the point where you can’t understand the sentences or what’s going on. I found myself reading over a paragraph again and again to understand the content. The author is foreign so a lot of the slang and grammar is difficult to understand. The plot of the story is good but typical. Boy meets girl, boy and girl fight, break up, kiss and make-up, then live happily ever after. A few funny things: The main female character Vivian is supposed to meet her boss (Matteo) at a hotel for a sexual rendezvous but instead his business partner Ryan meets her, blind folds her upon entry into the room and spends the evening with her. And Vivian is completely clueless that she’s not with Matteo! When Ryan talks to her during the evening she can’t tell the difference between Matteo’s voice and his voice??? Really? Not believable at all. Later in the book, Vivian runs out of a building and the author explains that “he” ran out of the building. I read that over and over and thought, did the author really just write that? And the leading man, uses the terms of endearment toward Vivian “fairy” or fairy nymph”. Ummm, okay, that couldn’t be any goofier. It was just all over the top, written like a children’s fairytale with some good sex scenes. I also got the feeling that the book had some Pretty Woman undertone to it, hence the name Vivian and getting paid for sex. And poor Vivian was always getting falsely accused of being a gold digging whore even though she was a really good person. I didn’t like how the men in the book would demean her. My advice…skip this one. It was a trashy novel.
