A fun enough read, but it was too short

April 15, 2018 by Malin Leave a Comment

3.5 stars

Georgiana “Georgie” Watkins is a wealthy heiress and socialite It-girl who usually comes home from her nights out around 5am, always making sure to bring donuts for the building staff before she retires to bed. While living a life of leisure and partying at night and planning charity fundraisers by day used to be diverting enough, Georgie is getting restless and bored, and starting to consider taking her dad up on one of his many job offers. Contrary to what some people think, it’s not like she’s stupid or incapable of working.

The “some people” Georgie is mainly thinking of is one of the other residents in her building, divorce attorney Andrew Mulroney. He’s known as the “King of Divorce”, the go to guy for all the biggest celebrity divorces and he gets up early each morning to hit the gym before going to work. As he leaves the building around 5am, he usually runs into Georgie and they trade barbs. Working divorces, Andrew really doesn’t have much time for or belief in long term relationships, and he certainly wouldn’t consider one with the spoiled socialite who taunts him every morning. Nevertheless, there is clear chemistry between them, and after a particularly aggravating verbal sparring session, Andrew kisses Georgie – and their kiss is caught on camera by the paparazzi. The gossip pages start speculating about them being a couple – but that could never really happen, could it?

Full review on my blog.
