Outmatched by Kristen CallihanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I received this free eARC novel from the author. This is my honest review.
Parker is making her own life and working hard for it, so she feels disgusted that she has to hire a fake boyfriend to get a permanent position at her dream job. One of the sponsors won't hire employees unless they show they have strong commitment goals... like being in a serious relationship. It's completely wrong, but Parker is desperate to keep this job.
Rhys had it all as a professional boxer, but after witnessing a match gone wrong, he stopped instantly. Now he's struggling to keep his parents gym they started and he's trying to find a solution that doesn't involve selling it. When he interferes with his brother's plan to get paid to date a rich girl, Rhys finds himself dating her instead.
The longer Rhys and Parker are around each other, the more their attraction grows and grows. But they are just acting, right? Both are going to have to face their past and decide if they want to discover what may be in store for them.
I'm so so glad I got a chance to read this eARC!!! I loved it so much! Both characters are strong minded and so stubborn it was really entertaining to watch them go head to head.
Rhys had a lot of self discovery to get through during this novel. He had a lot of guilt and anger and healing to do, but Parker was good for him. She pushed him and challenged him.
And Parker... I feel really bad about how Fairchild treated her. He's a jerk and a snob and I think it's terrible what Parker went through. She's such a strong, independent person and to have to lower herself to that standard was hard to witness.
This was such a great book and I'm glad I got a chance to read this early! Looking forward to future books by Samantha Young and now I'll go discover some books by Kristen Callihan!
