Review Tour: To Be Your Girl (To Be Yours Book 1) by Rae Kennedy
When Haley’s big brother Tuck's best friend, Cade, turns out to be her new roommate, courtesy of her moving in with them, she's unpleasantly surprised to find out he's a manwhore with a hefty dose of asshole. But as the days wind by she finds out perhaps he's not really an ass, but is definitely a manwhore. Cade knows Haley's off limits, but their mutual attraction can't be denied, and soon they're indulging when Tuck's not home. They both know it's going to blow up in their faces, and when it does blow up all over the damn place...will Cade stick around and stand up for his feelings for Haley, or take off when she needs him most?
Gah, this story drove me nuts! It was drama llama so much that I got whiplash from reading their back and forth, push and pull. They were together. Then they weren't. I thought they'd stick it out and they would, for a little while. Then they'd fall apart because of one thing or another. Then the rush to an HEA at the end. Sigh...it raced a million miles an hour and wound around so much I never quite got the chance to feel invested in any of them or their story. I will say that it is freakin' hot, and it's why the 3 stars rather than the 2 it could have been if I had based it on the story alone. I'd say there's almost too much sex and not enough story, but if there hadn't been all the sex, the story itself would have suffered, because it wasn't interesting enough, or stable enough to have held my attention on its own. So all the sex (super freakin' hot sex!) was actually necessary. And too much sex is better than not enough, at least in my opinion.
