Andrea Christenson: Can't Buy Me Love

 By Kelly Bridgewater

She’s not looking for love…

Housekeeper-slash-entrepreneur Ella Bradley prides herself on being ready for anything. After all, with a father who died—and lied to her—and a stepmom and stepsister who despise her, she has no one else to depend on. But on the biggest night of her life, she’s unprepared to be trapped in an elevator with the man of her dreams.

He doesn’t mean to lie…

Wealthy prince-to-a-fortune Adrian Vassos wants nothing more than to shed his reputation as a party boy and prove that he is a savvy businessman. Even, a gentleman. But when he’s trapped with a woman who knows his reputation but not his face, he gives into the temptation to be someone else—and lies.

A disastrous beginning leads to a fresh start…

When serendipity brings them together again—this time to work off community service—can their combined sentences spark a new ending? Maybe…if Adrian’s lies don’t find him out. Again. 

The magic of Deep Haven enchants in this modern-day Cinderella story.

 

My Thoughts:

Can't Buy Me Love by Andrea Christenson with the help of Susan May Warren is  a contemporary romance fans dream come true. If readers have enjoyed all of Warren's Deep Haven stories, then they will probably enjoy this story too. With a domino effect of errors that occur, Ella finds herself thrown in Adrian's arms and path over and over again. Of course, there is plenty of predictable moments where the two characters find themselves questioning their romance and sparks flashing everywhere. The plot was a little different. She is worried about the environment; whereas, he wants to build a waterpark with chemicals galore. Tension. One of my favorite things was seeing the Christenson family again. They were my favorite family by Warren, so it is nice to see them play a part again. Overall, Can't Buy Me Love by Andrea Christenson is just what the readers were wanting. Familiarity. Romance. Tension. Definitely a book for the keeper shelf.

I received a complimentary copy of Can't Buy Me Love by Andrea Christenson through Sunrise Publishing, but the opinions state are all my own.
