The plot was too farfetched, easily anticipated and somewhat cheesy.Lust between a 25 and 40 year old at first sight. Being swept of ones feet, deception (somewhat), forgiveness (I guess), elements of a chase... Ehh... some parts just had to be skimmed in this book.This is NOT a dark steamy read. I'm confused as to why it suggested that if you liked 50 Shades of Grey you will enjoy this book. This book is the first book I've read with May-December in Reverse position (older woman - young man).And somehow, I can't really feel the age difference between the two characters. Pearl is young at heart (Really?? Mountain climbing at the age of 40?? Seriously??) While Alexandre is a stinking billionaire at the age of 25. How twisted is that? The story is OK. Although I can't really feel "feelings" when Alexandre found out who Pearl really is and he just acted angry.And the how Alexandre and his sister's life before entered the story didn't quite made an entrance. I wish it could be more shocking and revealing and caught in the moment so it could made it worth while reading it.And why am I feeling that the reason Alexandre's past lovers (i think all were older woman) were all older than him is because he's wants a motherly attention? Or is just the norm of may-december relationship that us people think?Also I noticed something. I don't know if i read it wrong or what but before they were talking about Pearl's boss Natalie? And I think it was Alexandre who was saying that Natalie is a common name? But Pearl haven't said that Natalie was her boss's name. It happened early in the book. Anyone can enlighten me about it?
I loved this series, it had everything you need in a great series. I recommend you read them all..
