Synopsis:
Prim, proper, classic good girl, and her least favorite label - icy.
Lila Kate Carter has heard them all. The last one, being the newest. She is not icy. She just doesn’t care for Cruz Kerrington and his spoiled, selfish, careless ways. That doesn’t make her icy, that makes him a jerk!
Tired of being labeled and doing what is expected of her, Lila Kate leaves Rosemary Beach, Florida ready for an adventure. Wanting to recreate herself, find a new path, and become something more.
Eli Hardy is tired of women who always act the same, do the same thing and expect the same thing. He's ready to swear off women until he can get the rest of his life together.
Two weeks into his no-women-rule he meets Lila. She’s so damn sweet and polite. Like she walked right out of an etiquette book. But he’d already been drunk before she walked in so there was a good chance she might not be as stunning and perfect as he thinks. He’s just too drunk to worry about that.
The next morning, he swears he can still smell her on his skin. He just can’t remember why or what happened after that third dance.
Their worlds are about to collide, and so are the secrets and lies.
Review
I enjoyed this book, we are used to Abbi's male characters to be not such good guys at the beginning but then growing into better men and this is no exception.
Cruz and Lila's relationship was TOXIC! He hurt her all the time, and treated her as if he didn't care, which is not such a great role model for relationships.
That being said, I love a bad boy turned around love story, and him realizing that he was in love with her was a big step in the right direction.
In the real world this would only end in misery for both, but I'm glad for these two characters and their HEA.
