Thank you Netgalley for this ARC!

This was my first book ever by author Summer Hunter and I absolutely loved it. I am giving it a solid 4.5 stars, but rounding up to 5 since Goodreads doesn't offer half stars.

If I'm being completely honest, I am not a big fan of romance covers with real human faces on them. So I was pretty wary going into this book because I've had some experiences in the past reading books with faces on the cover and being very disappointed by the books' contents.

BUT. Girl, let me tell you. This was amazing. I can totally forgive the cover, 1000000%! Chance and Maddie had my whole heart - right from the start of their encounter. I was completely captivated by their chemistry, and was a huuuuge fan of Maddie's boldness.

The plot itself was exhilarating. I did NOT expect the thriller side of this book, and although it was pretty tame to be considered a real thriller, I thought it played in so well with the rest of the scenes. I was basically on the edge of my seat the entire time trying to figure the mystery out!

This book basically has it all. From insta-lust to forced proximity to billionaire, I was just sooooooo into everything going on between the two characters. Also, I won't lie, I was kinda wishing I was Maddie while reading the book, lol. Oh... and the HEA?! Ugh. Perfection.

The only reason I decided to rate it 4.5 instead of a full 5 stars was because I felt like some of the emotional scenes were a bit rushed and awkward in some ways. For example, I thought that Maddie got irrationally upset over certain things that Chance did throughout the book and wasn't able to understand why.

But other than that, absolute *chefs kiss*. I immediately subscribed to Summer Hunter's mailing list and received the free book "Falling For The Enemy's Daughter" and I am already almost halfway through that one, too.

Run, don't walk to get your hands on this book!
