Ties That Bind by Katee Robert
4.0
TIES THAT BIND is a quick read but a really enjoyable one. Going in I thought there would be tension between Jack and Cora due to the sex tape that destroyed Cora's acting career but things aren't what they seem (Cora wanted out of her acting contracts and orchestrated the sex tape and it's release so that her network would drop her. She approached Jack, another up and coming actor, with her proposition and he agreed to help her). Though Jack and Cora haven't seen each other in almost 10 years they've both never forgotten their one night together.
This was definitely insta-love but that doesn't bother me and I enjoyed reading about both Cora and Jack. Cora in particular doesn't enjoy the limelight of Hollywood and getting involved with Jack brings up a lot of bad memories from her time as an actor and the relentless way the media went after her for their sex tape. She struggles a lot over being with Jack but she never doubts him. They make a perfect couple together and the chemistry is great.
