This was a really fun read for me!  On one hand it’s that story you have likely read before – the cliche bad boy (in this case model) reformed by life altering circumstances and the good girl who loved him.  But on the other, it was filled with such enjoyable banter, I just didn’t care.  The honesty and humor in Sadie’s POV was easy to connect to and enjoy.  She was the doting personal chef with a track record of dating (and almost marrying) the arrogant a-hole types.  Enter Heath, the incredibly narcissistic a-hole, at least given his first impression, at her interview to be his chef for the summer.  I hated him and loved him instantly because I knew this could be a great redemption story and that there clearly was more to Heath than meets the eye.True to form, Heath was instantly attracted to Sadie, and vice versa.  However, just when Sadie thought she’d had enough of Heath’s playboy antics, that life-altering event occurred and Sadie was soon the only person remaining by Heath’s side.  We instantly saw different sides of both characters – strength and perseverance in Sadie, and helplessness and dependence in Heath.  Very quickly these two forged a great friendship neither had built the likes of before.  It was incredibly fun to watch their chemistry skyrocket and Sadie’s intense jealousy fuel the fire. I thoroughly enjoyed the drama and the bickering and the fighting and the sex.  It was a steamy read, even mixing passion and humor.Now there was plenty of drama to be found here.  Sadie herself had a few crazy moments, but there was indeed much more to this beautiful man Heath, and what Sadie discovered was truly complementary to her.  These two very lonely souls found something in that could only be found with each other – home.  A little cliche but a really fun read.
