3.75 starsLex has a problem....someone he thought he could trust is telling his companies secrets to the media.  He has tried to find the mole on his own with no luck.  Now he has an even bigger problem...he needs his ex Jacinta.Jacinta never thought she would see Lex again after their painful breakup.  They had run really hot for four glorious months until she was forced to choose between her loyalty to her brother and her loyalty to Lex.  The last thing she expects if for Lex to come to her for help...and to ask her to pretend they are back together.Jacinta agrees to his crazy plan but only if Lex agrees to help her brother with a job.  As Lex and Jacinta spend more time together, they can't ignore the sparks that still ignite and the fact that their fake relationship is starting to feel more and more real.This was a quick read that had a lot of potential but sadly was a little lacking in the character development in my opinion.  Jacinta and Lex both have a lot from their back stories that effect who they are and how they feel but it isn't really as delved into as it could have been.  There are also a lot of family members that are introduced but not a lot is done with them.  Parts of the story seem to drag while other parts felt rushed.The chemistry between Jacinta and Lex is well written and the sex scenes once you get to them are hot.  Lex is defiantly an alpha and once he sets his sights on getting Jacinta back, nothing will stop him.My thoughts:Quick hook or slow starter? 3.5 (this was a slow starter and was off and on for me)Character development: 3.5Level of Romance between characters: 4Passion/Heat level: 4.5 ( sex scenes are hot and you get quite a few of them)Angst/Heartbreak: 4 (with a little more development there would have been more angst)Cliffhanger?:  No, this is a stand alone book.Overall, I liked it but I felt like it could have been so much more had it been just a little longer.  I would still recommend it as it is a quick read with hot sex scenes.I received a free copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
