The Girl He Knows (No Strings Attached #1)

The Girl He Knows



This book had a lot of promise as it started of well, but towards the end it just got annoying and was rushed.  Firstly I wish I saw more of the male protagonist Hank in the book because it felt that he was missing from most of the story which made it very difficult to connect with the plot and characters. Paisley's character was so annoying (and as Hank described her "wishy-washey") because she never knew what she wanted and continued to string guys along. She was unable to stand up for herself and for her dignity even though that is what she promised herself.  The writing was good and the chemistry was okay, but I would have liked to see more of the intimate scenes. I loved the secondary characters of Paisley's friends because they brought humour to the book which left the reader laughing out loud. I was really disappointed with this book.

Rating: 2.5/5


Plot

Paisley, is recently divorced and trying to enjoy her life and one morning she gets up next to her best friends handsome brother Hank. Leaving it as a one night stand seems the best thing to do, but they are unable to resist each other.

Hank is a naval officer who believes both in commitment and monogamy, which is something Paisley does not want at the moment. Hank then offers Paisley a no strings arrangement and it seems to be good to be true. 

As they spend time together both Hank and Paisley find it difficult to leave their heart and feelings out of their agreement.
