Review: Good read, annoying characters

It's a given that when you read certain romance novels that you have to kind of suspend reality, which is great because books are kind of an escape. But at some point you just have to call BS and scream "Come On!" at the e-pages. This is one such time.I knew what the story was about when I downloaded it and I thought Alex was pretty enticing myself, for a night or two but no more. Based on everything I thought I knew about Carly she seemed to be a pretty together woman, which is why it is so surprising that she not only fell for, but willingly signed up for his crap, and crap is exactly what it was. It sounds as though I didn't like this story and really I didn't but that doesn't mean it isn't a story worth reading. Based on my disgust with both Carly and Alex I think its' safe to say that Emily Quinn did a good job writing them out. I'm sure she'd rather have me hate the characters rather than be indifferent.Like I said I knew how it'd end before I even began reading it, I just wish for the sake of women that Carly put up more than a cursory fight and put him in his place a little. But since that's not to be, I think there are plenty of people who will love this story.
