I even threw away my marriage for a rump with a student.

At this point, no one will have me.
It doesn’t stop me from wanting Sophie.
She’s smart and gorgeous.
To top it off, she gives me the cold shoulder.
It makes me crave her even more.

Oh, but I want him…bad.

MY REVIEW
What is a manwhore to do when he catches feelings and finds himself no longer wanting multiple women? Well, in Tobias' case, he tries his best to convince that woman, Sophie, that he's changed his ways and wants only her. Will she believe he's really changed? Even after his ex wife (whom he cheated on) warns her about Tobias' unfortunate tendencies that include him indulging himself in everything but commitment and sticking to his vows?

I wanted to love this story because a) it's part of the Cocky Hero Club and b) it's a professor romance, both things I normally love. Unfortunately, I just could not get into this one. I didn't connect with (or like) Tobias, even though it's pretty short, it's mostly uneventful and slow moving, and the ending is one of the most rushed endings I've read in a long time. It ends abruptly with no epilogue, so no look into their future so I could be sure they were happily together. It's not horrible or anything, and Sophie is likable at least, she saves it from 2 stars, it's just not particularly entertaining, nor is really up to the standards of most of the rest of the CHC stories I've read.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...
