Review: Too slow, too many story lines - CONTAINS SPOILERS
Rating: 2 out of 5

After two attempts at reading this book, I finally gave up at 60%. I felt that it suffered from entirely too much going on, yet at the same time, not a darn thing happened. At 60% the selling of the virginity finally happened, and by that point, I'd lost all interest in any part of it.There was a lot that did bother me about the book. Priscilla. She was beyond loathsome, and I kept thinking that as high powered as Hunter was, and as well connected as we were led to believe, he could have just made her go away. I hated every thing about her, and could have totally done without her. And the stuff with Cross? His father was the governor of California, and yet he was going to totally cut him off? Send him to some state run place, some TAX PAYER supported place, and this was just going to be alright with everyone? As a voter, there would be no way I'd vote for him ever again. If he could turn his back on his own son, then what does that say about his character? I wouldn't want someone like that as the leader of my state or my representative. It just wasn't believable for me, and was rather a turn off.Oh, and bottled water heiress? Seriously? That is such an over saturated market, that I'm not sure how much of an heiress you could be.Had all the stuff with Hunter been done away with, and the real action of the story been introduced a lot sooner, I probably would have finished the book.
