It was pure torture getting as far into this book as I did, and there was no character development in sight. I could add a hundred other direct quotes into this review but I'll honestly save you the distress. This book is just filled with so many issues, there is even the continuous shaming of a woman in a domestic abuse relationship. When thinking about how she could possibly get her job back after she was fired (righteously so, since she verbally abused and harassed a stranger) she thinks-Ī pity-fuck to save my career shouldn't be out of the question.

The only reason I pushed through this book was because I was hoping that there would be some character development, I was praying that her character was overdone to be this heinous and then would eventually redeem her character-you know that big self revelation, like the fact that they realise they're a bad person suddenly makes up for all the horrible things from the first 80% of the book. All her inner monologue was about how blessed everybody around her should feel, she was the definition of god's gift to earth. My beautiful face is what gets us the viewers'. I got paid more and did less actual work than them, but without my pretty face, the station wouldn't get half as many views as they did with me around. Everything that went wrong in her life was 'somebody else's fault' and her blatant disrespect and lack of empathy were disgusting. I honestly have never read about a character quite like Heather, she is the epitome of a self-absorbed, narcissistic, selfish asshole. Ugh, I just don't even know where to begin with this book. I’m left scrambling to pick up the pieces while piercing this tough guy’s armor. My entire life changes when he comes into my life. He wears this crazy mask because of a scar, but I can see the him on the inside. Heather - Austin and I meet in a crazy way, but I soon find myself unable to keep my hands off his buff, sculpted body.

How can someone be so wrong? One thing’s for certain – I’m going to protect myself and her. She convinces me to take off my mask, saying there’s nothing wrong with my face. We f*ck like animals at first, but it soon turns into something much deeper. This is NOT your typical fairy tale.Īustin – Heather is such a pain, but I can’t stop thinking about her.

Beauty and beast both learn something from the other. Heather is a television news anchor who bounces into his life while looking to further her career. His scarred face won’t stop her from loving him.Īustin is a defensive lineman trying to keep a low profile.
