Despite the spoiler warning down below, I wouldn't worry too much about spoilers. And that's because I only managed to read about 20% of the book. Nothing had happened between the main characters yet. Why didn't I read more?, you ask. Well, it seemed to me like Drew had a cronic case of asshole. And I really dislike reading about presumptuous pigs who enjoy degrading women and think of them as lower beings only fit to have sex, cry and be, as he called them, bitches. No thank you.

Yes, I am aware I will be receiving the but-it-gets-so-much-better-later-on comments, and that a lot of people do not agree with me - most people actually. And yet, somehow, I just don't seem to care. ...more

ABBANDONATO A PAGINA 74 DOPO CHE KATE "IO SONO FIDANZATISSIMA, INNAMORATISSIMA E FELICISSIMA" INFILA LA LINGUA IN GOLA A DREW.*

Obiettivamente me la sono andata a cercare e non posso nemmeno dire che "Diamine, un regalo di Natale caccoso, non potevano darmi i soldi?", no, perché me lo sono comprato DA SOLA (usato, ma è uguale).
Cerco qualche scusante.. qualsiasi cosa ma tutto ciò che il cervello al momento intende comunicarmi è un "Ben ti sta, cretina".

Ci tengo a dire che non sono una nazifemminis ...more

I'm sorry, but Drew is completely unlikable. He's basically everything you think of when you call a man a pig. You go into it really wanting to believe Kate can change him, but is he really capable of changing?

There was so much problematic stuff here. Drew doesn't really change as much as he decides Kate is the thing he wants and he's going to do everything he can to get her, even if it means being a pest and redecorating his apartment and maybe not having sex with every pretty girl at the club. ...more

Nope. I wasn’t sold from the first few pages. I forced myself to continue reading, because the reviews were so good. But it’s like eating broccoli, when you’re really move of a Brussels sprouts person. Both are good, but both are strong flavor profiles, and if you don’t like it, you can eat it to be polite, but it probable won’t like it more over the course of the meal.

I’ve read other Emma Chase novels....but Drew just didn’t do it for me.

This was a cute little romance that has a bit of hate to love element. It's told from the playboy guy perspective which was an interesting change from what we typically get in these type of stories. Very fun. ...more
