I could not put Compromise Agreement down (which kind of sucked because it meant I didn't get much sleep last night)! I must admit I was expecting something kind of dark, but I'm glad that it wasn't. I thought the author handled this book perfectly.

First, I liked the friendship dynamic represented between Natasha and Sophia. Sophia was a little selfish and Natasha wasn't above being a little bit mean when her friend was getting on her nerves. I've rarely seen authors write friendships that aren't perfectly supportive. While those perfect friendships do exist, I feel like a good number of us have friends with flaws who sometimes get on our nerves, but that we still love unconditionally.

I loved how spunky and hardworking Natasha was. She stood up for herself and wasn't afraid to put someone in their place. She also wasn't afraid to work to survive. While Sophia was essentially looking for someone to take care of her, Natasha was trying to take care of herself.

As strange is it may sound, I enjoyed how Matthew was slightly petulant when he didn't get his way. I think it was more so because the reason he wasn't getting his way was because Natasha was strong enough to tell him no.

What I think I enjoyed most was how oblivious Matthew and Natasha were to how they felt about each other. It created a lot of tension...very, very good tension.

I'm definitely an Isobel Hart fan and can't wait to see what she does next!
