I do have one issue with the story. Both Robby and Jack describe Hannah to her or someone else as “plain”, “ordinary”, or “average”. Many times this is mentioned, even Hannah sees herself this way. But not once did either of them (mostly I care about Jack) tell her she was beautiful to them. Yeah it was implied but the way they acted, the way Jack showed her he cared for her. But I just feel he should have told her she was beautiful to him. I was waiting for that moment and it never came.

Cons: everything else. Heroine is insecure and comes across as clumsy even though she’s a bodyguard. The hero calls her the epitome of ordinary, never once calls her beautiful to him, and this is supposed to be alluring. The author chooses to pit women against each other — best friend vs heroine, Hollywood women vs heroine. There’s not a single redeeming relationship between women apart from, of course, the hero’s mum and heroine.
It probably would have been better set in high school since that’s the level of maturity of everyone involved. No one is a girl’s girl and that’s honestly pathetic.
