Well this was a bummer of a “meh” for me. Ashley and Nash fell for each other which was good, but then there was way too much unnecessary and contrived conflict to get them to their HEA. Andre definitely needed to keep Ashley’s mother from showing up until the end as the voice of reason because she could have fixed the issues much sooner than actually happened.

Also it honestly drove me crazy that they’re so focused on Nash’s past “mistakes” but don’t really spell them out except he went to either prison and/or jail (there’s a big difference); but all of this supposedly happened when he already was a star and he still did time and she’d never heard about it? I feel like there’s a lot of BS there, and it’s infuriating.

There’s more that’s bugging me, but I’m done with it all. I wish I could have gotten this from the library, but for some reason the author doesn’t let them have ebook access or else it takes forever; at least I waited for a price drop on this one. I’m going back to Balogh rereads to cleanse my palate. ( )
