Synopsis: Kasie
is about to enter into a boring, bland, and vanilla marriage with a man who
hasn’t even asked her to marry him yet. But, he’s discussed the feasibility of
finding the perfect diamond for the perfect girlfriend who will, undoubtedly,
make him the perfect wife, too. But the problem is Kasie has been dragged off
to Vegas but her adventurous friend who wants her to go out and flirt with men
and drink with a stranger. Until she starts playing the tables and a gorgeous
hunk of a man invites her back up to his room. How can she say “no?” When she
gets back to California, what will happen when she finds out her mystery man is
a new client at her firm?
Review: I’m
not a huge fan of “cheating” stories, even when the cheating is justified away.
Kasie is so wishy washy. I completely forgot that her name was something as
different as Kasie. Kasie’s should be exciting and vibrant but this Kasie was
just as vanilla as her horrible sounding boyfriend. And she can never make up
her mind. Sometimes I found myself flipping back in the pages because I felt
like I missed something. Details that seemed like they would be important were glossed
over and forgotten.
Davis’s writing was good
but not extraordinary. And the novella just seemed to … end. There was really
no good conclusion and instead of it seeming like a cliff hanger, it was more
like a door slamming in your face.
I’m not sure if I would
read a second book in this series if I didn’t get it for free or from the
library.
In my
opinion, this book gets:
Just ... ok.
