Shredded brings together two fundamentally flawed characters in a way that is totally predictable.Z Michaels is a snowboarder known for big air, amazing tricks, and playing fast and loose with his personal life. He's the resident bad boy of Park City, Utah. Running from his heart-breaking childhood, he doesn't care what people think of him now, he just wants to board his way.Ophelia Richardson has a past of her own that she's trying to get away from. Moving from New Orleans to Park City is a much needed change. After surviving a horrible accident she just needs to move on but she doesn't know how. Working in her family's ski lodge, she has heard everything there is to know about Z. He's impulsive, arrogant, and flat-out sexy. She knows she should stay away from him but what her mind and her heart tell her are two different things.Shredded is one of those books that's been done before and million times and million different ways. There are two troubled characters that come together to form a connection they had no idea they could feel. There's insta-love, hot sex, and just your average romantic tropes. There's nothing really special in this book that really made me fall in love with it.
