Review: Forget the order, read book 3 first, skip book 1(told better in book 3), go to 2 then 4
Rating: 3 out of 5

This series was hard for me to rate only because of the four books in the series I really only enjoyed book three Claim, which was told from David's point of view. The first two books tell the story from Sophie's point of view. Both books lacked depth required to make the reader understand how a man 27 years old, hot as hell, extremely wealthy, would stop, ask an 18 year old out to dinner, sleep with her then ask her to marry him the next morning. He sets her up in his dream home, arranges for her to have designer clothes, up to date devices and the author hopes to hold our attention with one constant sex scene after another. Book three retells book one from David's point of view and does a much better job explaining David's motives. In this book, the author seems to have a soft spot for him because she goes into a much greater detail developing him and making the reader finally have some reason to root for the relationship. Book four is a let down because it reverts back to Sophie's point of view and again lacks depth. I would have much rather read the finale from David. So if I had to rate the books individually, books 1,2,4 would get 2 stars. Book 3 would get 4 stars, possible 5 if Sophie had been a stronger character.
