I wanted to like this book as the premise sounded great and had so much potential.

When I started reading I was immediately overcome by a concerned confusion that got worse with every chapter. Had I somehow gotten a copy of the very first draft of the book? A draft void of characters with personalities, without a structured storyline, where the author obviously hasn't done enough research to understand the bodyguard occupation.

Then confusion turned into frustration the more I read. The characters are ridiculously immature. The protagonist, who is supposed to be a "badass" bodyguard, seems to do nothing but cry and be terrible at her job. Heck, everyone at the agency she works for come off as though this is their first real-life operation, and all their experience comes from watching Miss Congeniality.

I honestly have no idea why this book has such a high average score.

Una lettura super carina, ma soprattutto davvero divertente. Ho riso un sacco durante la lettura.
È una storia veramente dolce, con diverse riflessioni interessanti, anche se ad un certo punto siamo passati subito alla fase "innamoramento" in maniera un po' repentina. Della serie: "quando è successo?". Per questo avrei preferito fosse più lungo (o forse mi sono abituata ai romanzi targati Zapata, e non riesco a tornare indietro...).
Però tutto sommato, Hannah e Jack formano una coppia stupenda, e anche se i momenti in cui l'autrice sfonda la quarta parete a volte sono strani, mi è piaciuto molto!
