Distance Between Us

Schöne Lovestory, viele witzige Sprüche und tolle Charaktere. Das Geld-Thema fand ich allerdings viel zu präsent. Lässt sich gut lesen aber meiner Meinung nach gibt es bessere Bücher von Kasie West. ...weiterlesen

PLOT Money can't buy a good first impression. Seventeen-year-old Caymen Meyers learned early that the rich are not to be trusted. And after years of studying them from behind the cash register of her mom's porcelain-doll shop, she has seen nothing to prove otherwise. Enter Xander Spence: he's tall, handsome, and oozing rich. Despite his charm and the fact that he's one of the first people who actually gets her, Caymen's smart enough to know his interest won't last. But just when Xander's attention and loyalty are about to convince Caymen that being rich isn't a character flaw, she finds out that money is a much bigger part of their relationship than she'd ever realized. With so many obstacles standing in their way, can she close the distance between them? REVIEW So first of all, I hate the cover, it practically screams I´m a hollow book without any surprising plot elements. The truth is a different one! The book reminded me of "Pride and Prejudice" not because of the plot but because of the people. Caymen is a really strong character without her even realizing it, she is so funny but keeps absolutely everything to herself. All is packed within her, it was kind of frustrating and fascinating how she deals with everything completely without relying on someone else. She reminded me of myself, which was nice for a change! Although sometimes you want to shake her and tell her to just ASK, how difficult can that be, but I totally get when she says: she refuses to ask a question she doesn´t wants the answer to. AWESOME Book, I really am looking forward to get "Pivot Point" and the Sequel "Split Second" and the author already announced a new book " On the Fence" which sound so great, I already pre-ordered it. Quote Caymen: “Is that your subtle way of saying you missed me last week?" "I've missed my hot chocolate. I just think of you as the guy who brings it to me. Sometimes I forget your name and call you hot chocolate guy.” ...weiterlesen
