This book has been on my shelf for quite a long time. At some point, I must have wanted to read this series, as I received this book for free and went ahead and purchased the second one in the series.

Honestly, the book was okay. Nothing special, but then again, nothing awful either. I liked Tank. I thought he was a decent hero. I enjoyed not having to read a contemporary romance about a man and his many, many sexual partners. While Tank wasn't a virgin, he also wasn't written as though his entire personality revolved around his sex life.

Emma was okay. I didn't hate her, I just didn't really connect at all with her. To put it plainly, she was the equivalent of the color beige. Nothing wrong with it, but it's also not very exciting.

The plot was kind of forgettable. Tank is struggling with his mom's cancer and reconnecting with his estranged dad. Emma needs money to finish school. Tank's dad is rich and pays Emma to spend time with Tank (whom she already knows) and try and get him to visit with his dad. I wish the story had a bit more depth to it. The actual plot sounds like it would, but it just didn't come across as anything at all substantial.

Still, it is a good start to this series. I have reviewed the next few books in the series already (I somehow ended up reviewing out of order). I still have two more books to get to in this series. So far they all have been good enough that I'm planning on finishing the series (Thanks to KU. Without being able to get them that way, I doubt I would finish this series. I don't think any of the books I've read so far have been worth the buy)
