Review:
This story was not what I expected it to be. I thought that this was going to be a rip off of 50 Shades of Grey because it has a seemingly normal girl become the love interest of a very rich CEO who is cold, demanding, very dominate, and doesn't know how to deal with his feelings. Never the less I decided to read it anyway because it is currently #32 on the romance list on wattpad and 72.5 million people have looked at it before me.
The main character Jade is a very strong willed and independent from the very beginning. Her family is a big importance to her and you get the vibe that it is due to her past. She seems a good judge of character and doesn't seem afraid of doing what she knows is right. I'm glad to say that she does not just take the crap she gets from Eros she instead quits when she is overworked and Eros doesn't seem to care. From there on it is a wave of emotions for all the characters. You learn more of her past and you see Eros grow more caring. Jade is true to character and doesn't go back to Eros willingly she goes back for her family. Nothing but romantic tension for both parties till Eros ends up kissing her. You have a 2 year jump and in that two years it seems that both their feelings only grow even though they both hide it very well. It all ends with a great bang when the past finally catches up with them. Past lovers and the secret that has been chasing Jade finally comes to light and how Eros reacts is absolutely perfect. As everything comes to an end for this book you can't help but wonder what happens after the seemingly happily ever after.
This book was forever better for having some chapters in Eros's point of view. You not only get to see how Jade grows to care for Eros but you also get to see Eros's obsession for Jade's coffee turn into love for her as a person. You are thrown into the complicated mind of the cold CEO and him battling the past obsession with a ginger and trying to be the person that deserves Jade.
By the end of this book I was very satisfied. It was nothing like 50 Shades of Grey like I thought it would be and it reminded me not to judge a book by their cover. Eros came to love Jade and learned it show it in a healthy way and Jade finally stopped running from her past and more than found someone would would understand. Both main characters grew and it wasn't just they saw each other and then fell in love all within a few months. This book shows us the beginning years of their love as it grows and they learn to trust. It has twists and and turns while maintaining that feel of a classic love story and though this story ties up all loose ends you wonder what happens after they tie the knot.
Which is why I am way to excited that we can continue to follow their love story with The Girl He Noticed which shows us how well they can live together and what happened when they are faced with hard decisions that affect both of them.
In all this story was a wonderful read and I couldn't help but read it all in one sitting. If you are looking for a romantic love story with a plot like 50 Shades then this is the one for you. There is no sexual interaction in this book like 50 Shades but the characters are similar and in my opinion better. The characters aren't swept aside because of sex and feelings seem stronger since you have a story and actions to back it up instead of it being implied by the author. The back story is shocking and you are guessing what exactly haunts Jade up until the very end. I highly recommend to those romantics out there or if you are looking for a good story.
