I docked it half of a star, because I did find the writing a bit juvenile at times. It reads a bit young even though the characters are all adults. Also, some of the conflict points were just a bit underwhelming. However, the sheer charm of the book made up for it in my opinion!

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.
