Let’s misbehave

Summerhill,
Book 3
Imogen Summerhill, box office darling, has never wanted to be in the spotlight
less.
When racy photos--and video!--are leaked by her sleazy ex, her studio couldn't
be happier. All press is good press, and this will only enhance the intrigue
about her upcoming blockbuster. But how is Gigi supposed to be taken seriously
as an actress with all this inappropriate buzz? She's Cate Blanchett, not Kim
Kardashian.
But then Gigi meets Merrick Graham, the Bad Boy of Politics. The last thing
either of them wants is to be tainted by more scandal: he needs the support of
the conservatives, and she wants to untarnish her image.
Only they can't resist each other--separately they're good, but in the bedroom
they're even better. They can't be seen together in public, but in private
all's fair game, and there's plenty of room to misbehave...
My thoughts…
OK let me start out by saying that I have not read any
other books by this author. I read the synopsis for this book and was
immediately interested. I guess I looked over the whole book 3 thing but oh
well. The book can be read as a standalone. I am sure I would have enjoyed the
book a whole lot more having known some of the other characters from the other
books. It was great either way.
The book was well written and easy to read. I fell in
love with Imogen aka Gigi. She was such a good character. She was always on the
move and she knew what she wanted. Granted in the beginning she was almost too
focused on her job but she figured out the role that love and work would have
in her life and it didn't take all that much for her to see it. Her
character was easy to love. She had some bad stuff happen in the media and
she was label a…well a slut. Which is far from the truth. Don’t get me wrong
she is not a virgin, she likes sex, but she is not a slut. They are too very
different things. I really liked that by the end she took her life back from
the media. She realized what was going to make her happy and went after it. In
a way she was inspiring. Not many people know what is going to make their life
happy, much less go after it once they figure it out.
Merrick was completely amazing. He was kind of dull in
the beginning. He was being labeled as the “Bad boy of Politics” which he
really wasn't. Yes many politicians do not get there start in a
famous boy band but that doesn't make him a bad boy anymore. He
is trying to get people to see him differently so that he can get an
important bill passed. Dating an actress that has a bad
reputation isn't going to help. Merrick’s character was kinda sad in
the beginning he was living a life trapped in guilt, which wasn't needed,
and hiding a part of himself. He was slowly losing it. I loved
the interactions between him and Malcolm. They were pretty hilarious.
(read the book, you’ll understand) Once Merrick got his head out of his ass he
realized that he deserves more than what he was giving himself. His character
was pretty amazing after that. The end scene with them was totally swoon
worthy. I can imagine being in the crowd of reports (being a bystander of
course. Those reporters are scum.) looking up at them like this…
Now the only thing that wasn’t dull about them was
their chemistry. The chemistry between the two of them was pretty hot and it
started out the minute they saw each other. It didn’t take them long to figure
out that they were not going to be able to fight a connection like that. In the
beginning I think the sneaking around was adding to the hot factor of their
relationship. The intimate scenes between them where scorching hot as well. I
loved that the scenes were detail but not overly so. Just enough to make it
hot.
Another great thing about this book was the way Gigi
and her sisters interacted with each other. You could tell they loved each
other and would do anything for the other. Despite the way their father raised
them they came back together. All except Tatiana which we will learn more about
in the next book. I can’t wait! You can tell they were a family of strong women
which is different then most family series I have read. They usually focus of a
family of alpha men with a sister or something but this series is about sisters
and I loved that.
I will be reading the next one and catching up by
reading the first two hehe.
