My Review
Jake is tasked with keeping an eye on Bresi, the antagonist. However, he becomes infatuated with Alexandra, who’s accompanying Bresi to the US. Hoping to leverage his relationship with her to get to Bresi, Jake unexpectedly finds himself genuinely falling for Alexandra, complicating matters of disclosure. On the other hand, Alex, elated to be in America, is taken by surprise when she encounters the charismatic Jake. As their whirlwind romance intensifies, questions of trust and familial ties arise.
The book showcases palpable sexual tension and passionate exchanges between the protagonists. Despite their instant attraction, which some might find accelerated, their bond feels genuine. The narrative takes a twist when Alex discovers Jake’s true intentions, leading her to distance herself, focusing on her musical aspirations. Recognizing he can’t live without her, Jake devises a plan, with his friends’ aid, to win her back and reveal the whole truth
