About this eBook

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 charming ways and the fact that he seems to be one of the first people who actually gets her, she's smart enough to know his interest won't last. Because if there's one thing she's learned from her mother's warnings, it's that the rich have a short attention span. But just when Xander's loyalty and attentiveness 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?

Ratings and reviews

I read a LOT of books and none have recieved a 3 star review from me. This is the first book I have felt 50/50 about. I liked it and I didn't like it. Not my favorite book but didn't hate it. Does that make sense?

The plot was very well structured, containing conflicts, cute moments, and more, making this a very entertaining read. But the conflicts in the main character's life that occurred in the near end of the book, left a few unanswered moments, making the ending feel a bit rushed. Overall great storyline, this book just had a more rushed ending.

This is one of the best love stories I've ever read. Ever. In fact, I've just finished my second time through, and it was as amazing as before. It's so touching, deep, and romantic yet not really corny at all. The author does an amazing job avoiding all the cheese that comes with writing a love story. The characters are awesome, and the humor is too good. I laughed/cried my way through the whole book. Couldn't read it fast enough and couldn't get enough of it. Hope y'all will like it as much as I.
