About the book:

CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE


Penniless and behind on rent, college student and once famous child actress Ellie Barlow takes on the role of a lifetime when she's hired by a group of young women to break the heart of the campus player who cruelly dumped them.

Transformed from slob slacker to jaw-dropping beauty, Ellie is dressed, styled, bleached and waxed, her chunky glasses exchanged for violet contacts. Along with physical prepping, she's coached on Julian's obsessions, which include long-distance running and J.D. Salinger.

In no time, Julian is in pursuit of his custom-made next victim, but when Ellie goes off script and begins to fall for her target, the newest broken heart in this risky game could be her own.

Advance Praise

"There were moments where it was almost Salinger-esque... the feeling of being young and adrift and confused and yet somehow fiercely alive comes across loud and clear. Best book I've read thus far this year. Simply lovely." V.J. Chambers

5 Stars: "This is a stunningly emotional story that tore my heart out, put it back together, and then tore it apart all over again. This is Weir at her best, taking you on a deeply emotional and difficult journey that isn't tied up in a neat little bow at the end but is still so wonderful and satisfying and leaves you wishing you could check in with the characters every now and again to see how they are doing." NetGalley reviewer

5 Stars! Another fabulous Theresa Weir book! Confessions of a Y.A. and N.A. Book Addict

~*~My Thoughts~*~
A 4 Star Rating So when i read the synopsis for this book I thought of the movie John Tucker Must Die and was immediately like yes please. This book was really good Ellie was extremely likable as was Julian. All in all it was a good quick read for me. Notice i only gave four stars and i really don't have a reason other than i didn't love it. I did like it a whole lot but something kept me from fully being like i absolutely love this. Either way if your looking for a good HEA this is definitely the book to read.

Ellie is a former child star who is down on her luck. A group of girls hire her to get revenge on a boy who broke all of their hearts. Ellie doesn't like the idea, but gives in since she desperately needs the money. And then they fall for each other. As you can imagine, this becomes quite sticky!

I actually really enjoyed this book. While not completely unique, it is not an over used plot. I really liked Julian and Ellie was likeable as well. The story is entertaining with several unexpected twists and turns.

Reviews on Goodreads and Amazon. I linked Goodreads because the link is instantly viewable. Amazon username is jmarie.

I loved this book from the first page. I was immediately hooked. There were so many things in this book that I did not expect, and I love to be surprised like that in a book. Great book, great author. She made me love the characters and I'm even still thinking about them this morning. I'd love to read more of her work, and more about these characters.

He's Come Undone by Theresa Weir is an excellent book about life, and how you can make your life into anything you want it to be.

Ellie Barlow is college age, and is behind on her rent. Her rent shouldn't be a problem because she was a child star, so she had made millions...that her mother spent. So she is penniless and has put herself out on craigslist as an out of work actress who needs a job.

A group of 6 girls have pulled together to get even with Julian, a guy who took them each home for sex and then left them the very next day, never to speak to them again. They want Ellie to change her looks, get a whole new wardrobe and then pull something over on Julian. They want her to get into a relationship with Julian and then break his heart. She agrees to do this, and even signs a contract.

Ellie gets to know the real Julian and Julian gets to know the real Ellie, when she lets her guard down. They fall in love with each other, and they both end up with broken hearts. Love can supposedly heal all, but can it fix this mixed up, broken relationship. Is it really a relationship, or a contract to be fullfilled.

I like this book, all the problems that they run into, the solution to those problems. I laughed, I cringed, I cheered them on and I told them that it wasn't a good idea. They didn't listen to me. Maybe they will listen to you!

I received a free copy of this book in return for my honest opinion. I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars.

I really enjoyed this story between Julian and Ellie. It was a sweet story and I though the author did a great job of steering it away from a predictable, happily ever after ending. It actually liked how it ended, how the characters both had to deal with their issues in their lives before they could continue their relationship. I loved the setting also - love the twin cities! Overall, a great and easy read.

This book was fantastic. There are so many good parts, I cant pick just one. I read alot of books and this is the first book I have read that has this kind of plot. It was funny, sweet, angry and just really, really good. It had so many emotions. It even touched on sensitive topics. The characters were so good. They meshed well together. I love romance books where you can laugh and cry at the same time. Just hoping for a happy ending between 2 people. This was a very fast paced story. I love how fast love came to Julian and Ellie. I also love how the girls went out with Julian was trying to hire Ellie and get back at Julian. Because Julian was basically a manwhore. The ending and epilogue was very impressing. Love, Love, Loved it all.

This was a fun, flirty, sexy, fast read. I'm not a fan of New Adult fiction simply because I do not relate well to the characters. Ms. Weir, however, did make her characters quite engaging and her male lead, especially, was quite captivating. The dialogue was smart and appropriate to the characters and the situations. The heat factor is high and the happily ever after quite satisfying. I would definitely read more from Theresa Weir.
