Book Review: Charlie by Siobhan Davis

Guys, this book is EVERYTHING!!! Trust me, you will fall in love with this one for SURE.  Okay, enough for now, let's just get to the review:

Charlie by Siobhan Davis


52355460. sy475 Demi
Dropping out of college senior year was never part of my plan. But Dad needs me, and I'd move mountains for the only parent I’ve ever known—even working for the company that fired him.

My boss, Charlie, is determined to make my life a living hell, availing of every opportunity to undermine my confidence, to humiliate and threaten me.

Sleeping with him the night of his wedding might have something to do with his attitude.

Or the fact I’m the spitting image of the woman he really wants.

If our financial situation wasn’t so dire, I’d tell Charlie to stick his job up his delectable butt.

But I’m trapped, and things are only getting worse. Because the more layers I uncover, the more I realize he is nothing l expected and everything I crave.

Charlie
If there was a manual for all the ways a person could mess up his life, it’d have my name written on it.

I can’t undo the things I’ve done, no matter how badly I want to, and every day is a constant reminder of my epic failure.

Especially her.

It’s as if Demi has been put on this earth to punish me. To inflict more torture and pain. Because every second I’m around her, she makes me feel things I don’t want to feel.

So, I lash out. Doing my best to push her away.

Until I realize she’s everything I never knew I needed, and the fight becomes a new battle—one to win her heart.

**********************************************

Alright, where do I begin with this book? Can I start by saying, I am in LOVE with Charlie?  But let me start by saying, he was NOT a favorite of my and when I started reading this book I did not have high expectations and OH MAN, was I wrong, so so so wrong.  And so glad at the same time that I was wrong, because I just couldn't get enough of Charlie in this book and I still cannot get enough of him, he has become one of my favorite book boyfriends, and I'm a little picky when it comes to them. Yeah, I have many book boyfriends but I read hundreds of books so I am can say that I am picky, right? lol.  Alright back with this book. 

This book is part of the Rydeville Elite series and if you haven't read the series yet, where have you been, you are for sure missing out on so much action and lots of steam romance and I leave it at that because I spoil it for you, but trust me you need to pick up the series now. 

We get to see Charlie managing his dad's business, a side that I was not expecting from him.  Life has never been easy for him, that's for sure, but the mistakes that he has made?  That was a lot and he knows that he cannot undo them, but he can do things to make up for all the wrong he has done.  And he can start with Demi, his assistant. 

Demi has drop off college and all her dreams, but she doesn't regret one bit.  She did it all for her dad, the man that has done everything for her and now is her turn to make sure he is taken care of and has everything he needs to get better.  Even if it means if she has to work at the company that fire him and to make matters worse, she made the mistake to sleep with her boss on the night of his wedding.  No matter how hard Demi tries to make things just professional, Charlie just makes her life miserable but he doesn't realize that Demi is stronger that she looks and she will put up with everything just to make sure her dad has the best care.

The more the two of them fight and try to push each other away, the more attracted to each other they are and at the end they realize they are meant for each other, but their worlds are totally the opposite from each and Charlie will do anything to keep Demi safe, even if it means to keep her away from him.

I loved these two together, I loved their fights, I loved their chemistry, their love for each other, I could feel their feelings through the pages, it was everything you wish for on a book.  Siobhan knows how to make you fall in love with characters, but she out did herself on this one.  Charlie was the bad boy that when you really get to know him, he is the good guy all along and you just don't have any choice but to fall in love with him.  And fall in love with him I did.

A million stars to this book! My favorite for sure.

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced complimentary copy of this book.

XOXO,

Nelia
