review 1: I am going to start with the sypnosis of this book that had me wanting to read it....Four Men.One Woman.And one of the hardest choices Aurora Alexander will ever have to make.Newly divorced, single mother Aurora is desperately trying to move on with her life.After a string of unsuccessful blind dates, she turns to internet dating.Everyone does it, so it has to be safe. Right?Hot one night stands. Sexting. And an Alpha man who sweeps her off of her feet.Aurora thinks she has found her happily ever after.But among her suitors is one man who plays by a different set of rules.Someone who isn’t who he says.Will Aurora figure out who does’t have her best interest at heart.Or is she destined to become a Statistic?Okay for starters I was a little iffy on reading this book but ... moreI was bored and after reading mixed reviews I said what the hell let me give it a try.. And I didOkay so Aurora Alexander is a divorced single mom who had been cheated on by a scumbag husband. It's been years since she has dated so she signs up for this dating website and goes on a handful of dates.. Okay for starters I have read other reviews where everyone is like omg Wesley is an alpha male and how sweet Brent was and blah blah blah... I am going to start with Brent reading their date was the most awkward reading I put myself through. It was predictable from the beginning something was definitely wrong after that.especially with their supposed friendship that was all in her mind because I really didn't see how they bonded they were barely together... Then there is the supposed "alpha male" Wesley.... Okay I dint see what was so alpha about him I have read my fair share of alpha males in a book and know for a fact Wesley was no damn alpha male but one big "douche bag" looking for a hook up. Why the sypnosis says four men I have no clue because she never meets or dates Jeremy she just chatted him up online and I felt like he wasn't interested in her just brushing her off so he was irrelevant to me. * oh and nice way to try and not make it obvious who Jeremy is * I caught on pretty early with the connection between him and Jackson so no surprise there... And then There is Jackson... Jackson jackson jackson, ii don't know how people didn't catch it at first when their were a few in his mind moments but I am not going to lie I fell in love with him from the beggining... Eventhough I started to see red flags a few times but what the hell I had more of a connection with him and there were some steamy sex scenes that had me squealing and giggling like a school girl but that is where it ended . And then aurora come on are you really that naive?? Like really you didn't see none of that coming?? Hello has anyone seen catfish?? Or know the dangers of online dating I hated how she claim to have low self esteem and loved the attention she was getting from the men... Really??? It was that low??She believed everything told to her she made up this friendship with Brent and then she instantly feel in love out of nowhere I felt like reading from her point of view I was getting whiplash the whole time. And there were times where I wanted to strangle her especially the scene with her ex where she finds out he has moved on which made me question her character a lot after that and wondered was she really truly over him...I felt the book was rushed, I didn't feel the connection between both jackson and aurora it all felt too fast and like they were more in lust than in love I just didn't feel it at all...a lot of things were left out that should have been explained if the book were longer there were a lot of unanswered questions I had because unlike anyone else I was left more confused than with my jaw dropped and shocked like most of the reviewers said they were left. My jaw didn't drop at the epilogue it was more like a one big wtf moment like that's it?? That's how is going to end? Really? I won't lie I liked the twist at the end and the concept of the story is good but I didn't like the rushness of the book felt the relationship between Jackson and aurora needed more developing but that is just my opinion. I wanted to give it a five because in the beginning the story had me on my toes and trying to figure out everything and second guessing myself until it became predictable. there were also errors which may not bother others but is one of my pet peeves I pay attention to details especially when it comes to names and the description of how a character looks... For instance Jackson introduced himself to Liam as " Jackson Drew Revere" and then after that his name changed to "Jackson Avery Revere" and I recall "Avery" being Liam's middle name not jackson's then there was his eye color went from blue to brown back to blue I was so confused after that which ruined everything about his appearance for me... Then his hair went from military cut to shaggy hair unless his hair grew in two days then I don't know lol.But I was able to get over those things and like the book enough to see what happens next... I guess we will have to wait for the second book to see what will happen next.
review 2: Aurora Alexander is a divorced mother with a 4 year old son. At the advice of her friends she signs up for a online dating website, thinking that nothing will come out of it. To her surprise the messages start coming in and soon she starts setting up dates. Four men catch her eye and she decides that she will go out with each of them to see who she has the most chemistry with. But one of these men have other plans for Aurora.I absolutely LOVED this book!!! Dawn Robertson is amazing and if I could I would give this book more than 5 stars. With all the twist and turns you will think you have it figured out and won’t be able to put this book down till the very end. Can’t wait for His Deadly Game!! less
