Let's be honest... I borrowed this book from Netgalley before I actually started reviewing books. (Think 2013 at 18 years old.) I'm now 30 and much more serious about my book reviews so I apologize for never formally reviewing this book.

I'm cleaning up my shelf and picking up the books I couldn't get into to see if that has changed, but it hasn't. I just can't connect with any of the characters. Elle really annoys me and the guys don't appeal to me at all. I'm DNFing it at 46% and won't be leaving a review. I would like to thank you, though, for giving me the chance to read it.

I'm sorry for not being able to read this book, but I appreciate the opportunity to provide a review. I want to thank Netgalley and the publisher.

Some of the scenes in this book are pretty exciting and it has a great concept. But the dialogue is scattered and meandering, taking us out of the tension of the moment. The characters tend to be rather cliched. And the twist is too heavily foreshadowed.

This book was requested when I was young and requested more books than I could possibly read. Sadly, I no longer have access to this book and my tastes have changed. Thus I will not be able to give feedback on this title.

If you’re a fan of movies like THE BODYGUARD, you’d probably enjoy this book. I certainly read faster during the second half of the book, because I needed to know exactly what was going to happen. A fun read for sure; if you can get past the first part of the book – which seems a tad mismatched at first, but give it a chance because it all comes together in the end…. or was I just ‘deceived’?

This was a really fantastic book. I found the characters interesting and the plot was engaging.
