I usually like books from this author, but this might be my lowest rating for one of her books. It's been since years since this was published, so I guess that shows growth.
The main female character doesn't like the ideas of escorts. She harps on and on and on about it, yet it doesn't bother her too much as she's working the front desk (I get that she needs the $$$, but for as much as she bemoans this type of work, she never should have started due to moral reasons). She dislikes what she considers "easy" women yet is with the main male character in their first date. By HER request, they don't really talk about their lives (they sort of appreciate each other in the moment and don't really discuss other aspects of their lives) and yet she's upset later that he's not divulged things about HIS life outside of the context of their relationship. It feels more like a fwb situation than a romantic relationship to me. They aren't using protection and she's surprised that she's pregnant. When she discovers something that looks bad she hightails it back to where she is from only to find out it's all one big misunderstanding (although was it a misunderstanding if YOU refuse to talk about it to begin with). I feel like the main male character could do so much better than someone who chooses not to communicate, jumps to conclusions, and does the whole "a fish may live a bird but where will they live" schtick. There is no character growth in this book.
