***I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review***Alexis is a freshman entering the Greek rush. She's a legacy for Delta Delta Psi. But she doesn't want it. Being a legacy means she'll get in no matter what. She just has to play the part. These girls are nothing like her. At her house interview, she spots Zach. The only reason she looks forward to joining the sorority.Zach needs this job. It provides a roof over his head. The girls are his sisters. Until he sees her. She's a typical sorority girl on the outside, but her eyes tell him scream something else. He wants to know more about her but he's not willing to risk his job or his home. The girls are his sisters.Alexis and Zach spend more and more time together and can't help what they feel for each other. But it's against the rules and her mother would freak. She can't help it. What's the worst that could happen?I loved this book. The characters were great and the book had a nice flow to it. Alexis was my favorite character. She is your typical I-have-to-listen-to-my-parents-because-they-have-money kind of girl. She appeases her parents while they're watching but when they turn their backs, she's herself. And I liked that person better. Zac had a dark secret like all bad boys do. But he didn't really remmeber it and that made me more curious to find out what happened and why he tortured himself so much for it.With the way the book ended, I guess I would have expected an expansion of the drama about what happened in the days after the hospital and how Alexis dealt with her parents and the sorority meeting. That would have added what a conclusion to their struggle to be together. If this was added in, as say the last chapter, the Epilogue could have been part of that last chapter and a perfect conclusion to the book. Then a different Epilogue could have been the apartment or maybe even a year later. That's my only beef with the book, but it worked out great just the way it is. I just craved a bit more "after the fact".
