Review: Max & Lily & Adam
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 11 25, 2013
Max & Lily meet in the airport & wow, major hotness both on the plane and in the terminal! Odd behavior for Lily but not necessarily for Max. He is a "retired" hockey player but not by choice. He had some self-destructive behavior since he felt he was indestructible & now he is without a team. To improve his image he is going to coach middle school hockey - ironically at the school where Lily teaches! Lily knows their connection is all about hot sex & she tries to deal emotionally with the fact she can't resist Max. Then comes Adam, a student's father, who is sweet & caring & surprisingly just as awesome in bed. I had assumed Lily would choose Max because of the bedroom action but no, Lily had nothing to complain about with Adam. Lily then makes some very stupid choices in her lack of control & her inability to keep her hands off of Max. Max actually might not even realize that he wants something more with Lily - he takes her to meet his parents and everything! (Max affectionately refers to Lily as "doll" & we find out that comes from Max's dad, and Lily still doesn't take the hint that Max is serious about her!) Sadly Adam finds out about Lily spending time with Max and cheating on him. Max blames Lily for not giving him a chance to be her boyfriend & choosing Adam. Lily never even considered him. I really feel for Lily because she is a young girl with a strong libido & she has two very different but very hot men wanting her attention & she is selfish & wants them both. In the end you know what happens when you cheat - you end up alone! Struggled with the ending of this book - flipped between 3 & 4 stars actually, all due to the ending. I'd like Lily to find herself & overcome her mistakes, and it would be awesome if there was a book #2 in part of a series, but this is all we get. No real resolution to anything.
