Review: The Stranger (Just One Night, Part 1) by Kyra Davis


The Stranger (Just One Night #1) by Kyra Davis

Blurb from Goodreads:

You should sleep with a stranger, her best friend whispers in her ear as they take to Vegas for one last pre-wedding fling. Despite her best intentions, when Kasie Fitzgerald enters the casino and sees him, a man whose tailored clothes belied a powerful, even dangerous, presence, she loses herself to the moment. Maybe it’s the dress, much shorter than she’d ever normally wear, or the Scotch, but something makes her give herself over to him more completely than she's ever done with a man before.

It was supposed to be just one night. But right as she’s thinking she wants more, he shows up in her office with an agenda. As the billionaire CEO of a company that’s engaged her PR firm, his demands just became her reality...and he desires so much more than just some attention in the boardroom.


My Review:


I think this book started interesting but got a bit trite quickly. There is absolutely no passion, reason, or logic for Kasie to stay with her boyfriend let alone to eventually agree to marry him. It seemed like she was so phony and so unhappy... However, regardless of her terrible relationship, there is absolutely no way she should have continued it once she had clearly started seeing Robert Dade, and falling for him. It was hard to understand her attraction (besides physical) to Robert Dade because it was not well written or thought out in the book. I just didn't understand her motivation in not breaking up with her boyfriend sooner

All that being said, however, I will read the next book.

I love this trope, sub-genre, setting: My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend

I Love This Trope, Sub-Genre, Setting is a new feature on my blog in which I discuss a trope, sub-genre or setting that I love and tell you about books that are shining examples of said trope, sub-genre or setting.  Feel free to play along and please let me know about your favorite books in this realm and whether you like this trope, sub-genre and/or setting as much as I do! Today I am spotlighting the trope of:  My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend , which I would define as any book where the heroine either has a crush on or falls for her brother's best friend or her best friend's brother. I have to confess that I love this trope in nearly all of its iterations!  I have a younger brother so I never got to crush on any of his friends but it's fun reading about that and it's equally as fun as reading about falling for your best friend's brother -- instant sisters!  I know there are a ton
