i really enjoyed reading this book, it was a great start to a series. It had interesting characters and made me look forward to more from the series.
In a world of glitz and excess, sizzling-hot Casi Roberts is the reigning queen. Swimsuit model by day and club girl by night, she floats through Los Angeles on the arm of her celebrity artist boyfriend, Alix Grey, documenting her fabulous life on social media. The illusion of perfection is shattered after an accident leaves her with physical scars, while emotional scars surface from her troubled past. Casi's tenuous relationship with her drug-addled mother, Sonya, continues to undermine her confidence as she struggles to find balance in a chaotic business obsessed with youth and beauty. Ruggedly handsome, master craftsman, Kyle Jensen is cool, calm, and collected. He has built an enviable life in Blackberry Falls, WA, while keeping his troubled older brother, Jake, in line. After a passionate encounter with Casi, Kyle’s carefully crafted life begins to unravel making him question the plan he had for his future. Can Casi step away from the spotlight and take a chance on love and explore new opportunities? Will Kyle risk his idyllic life to follow his heart? Do they dare to dream of a future together?
Well, the plot seemed interesting enough and well written, but I didn’t like Casi. I’m not into the modeling thing and she was definitely written to be one of the superficial ones. There was a lot of drama and twists to keep you on your toes though. In the end, it really wasn’t for me though. It’s just not my kind of book.
**I voluntarily read and reviewed this book
Ms. Orpin spins a tale of what happens when one day you're living the high life and being carefree, and then one day, an accident occurs and you find out who your true friends are and what you're made of. I found Dream to be a wonderful tale of life and what happens when all that you know is ripped away. This was a fun, quick, and engrossing read. I can not wait to read the next book.
Definitely a must read book! Loved it! It’s a compelling tail of what could go wrong and how to fight to make it right. You will get lost in the story and be ready for more.
DNF'd at 50% I liked the story but seriously Casi was getting on my nerves. I mean she literally acted like a typical model. I don't know if she gets better over the book but I could not read anymore of Jake's and Casi's screwed up relationship. There was so much back and forth and so much of cheating in the story I just couldn't take it anymore. I guess I'm simply not cut out for the model world XD
