When Rose Jensen’s grandfather
dies, he leaves her enough money to save her parents’ failing business and get
her through UCLA. The only catch – she has to marry Lee Montenegro, the
infuriating half-Spanish, all-playboy transfer. Rose and Lee’s grandfathers
were fast friends, and betrothed their grandchildren to each other.
Lee wants the money to run from his suffocating
family, and turns his full burning charisma on Rose, but she won’t give in.
She’ll never marry someone she doesn't love, and who doesn't love her. But
memories of a mysterious boy in her childhood haunt her, and Lee insists they
know each other. With her parent’s pressures mounting, her scholarship
slipping, and Lee’s advances heating up with more than just money-lust, Rose is
torn between doing the right thing for her family, and doing the right thing
for her heart.

~Joni's Review~
Oh hell I’m not even going to beat
around the bush you can read the synopsis and get the jist of what this book is
about. I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN. It’s the middle of the night and I’m tore all
to pieces with how it ended. But I had to know. There was no way I could go to
sleep not knowing what would happen between Rose and Lee. I am heartbroken.
At first I didn’t know what to
think about Rose but the more I read the more I saw that she was simply and
insecure person that was very goal oriented and loyal to those she loved. Then
Lee comes around and I knew I was a goner for him. Rose, not so much. She
couldn’t stand him and thought he was nothing but a playboy. Why would he want
her?
When Rose finds out about her
grandfather’s will she is angry and more determined to stay away from Lee. What
she doesn’t know is they have a history. One she doesn’t remember. She thinks
this is all a game to him.
“I won’t bind you to me with old
me with old memories and should-have-beens.” ~Lee
Like I said I knew I would love
Lee early on in the book. Well I did all the way through and my heart is broken
right now for him and Rose.
There are other things afoot
though. A greedy father. A scheming ex. When faced with possible deceit Rose
throws it all away thinking Lee lied to her about everything. Will she realize
that she was deceived by someone other than the person that she thought in
time? Or will she lose the person she loves to others whims?
“I love you, Rose Jenson. Don’t
you ever fucking doubt that again. No matter what happens from now on – never.”
~Lee
Grab a drink, some snacks, go to
the bathroom, and park your ass in your seat because you won’t be getting up
for awhile.
