Tempting the Billionaire by Jessica LemmonMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
NetGalley free read....
I liked it. Thought it was cute, but I had issues with the character's issues. I sort of understand that Shane's family life was problematic, which caused his issues with commitment. But why include his extended family if they aren't there to acknowledge that his upbringing was screwy and to be there to reaffirm that he's not alone. His interaction with his family was awkward and clunky.
As for Crickette (horrible name), she was just a doormat. He kept pushing and pulling. She should have gotten a backbone sooner. The fact that he 'almost died' in a plane crash is the only thing that makes him realize he's in love with her? I would have been offended.
I still don't understand why he was shaking when he hugged her the night she was crying after her ex-husband was terrible to her. And why would she go to dinner with him after he said those nasty things to her. I would have laughed in his face when he said he loved her after saying she was bad and sex and he loved her like a sister. Doormat!
What in what Shane said to her made her identify with the idea that he thought he wasn't good enough for her? He had a nice family that she'd met and he was a successful billionaire. Why wouldn't he be enough? Makes no sense.
