Blurb:

The first time I saw Alessandro, two things came to mind.
Sexy and naked.
You get the idea.

Thanks to him, my flight from hell became the best one I’d ever been on.
Turned out, the engaging, gorgeous passenger, was my new professor…and the ultimate jerk.

Rude, prick, cocksucker, were a few choice names I’d love to call him.
How was this offensive man the same human I’d met on the plane?

His soul must’ve been invaded by demons after leaving the airport.
To think I’d almost joined the mile high club with him. Almost.
Everywhere I went he was there raining more insults on me.

Until I saw him with his adorable mini look-alike.
That charming little boy melted my heart.
Before I knew it, I’d accepted his son’s invitation to play soccer.

What the hell was I thinking?
I hated that man.

But naked and sexy had gotten me into this mess.
And not even hate could get me out.

My review:

I absolutely loved this story! I have a soft spot for Italians and I instantly grew fond of Gabriele.

What a fantastic story and great read. I was so glad that it wasn't the usual professor/student story with age gap and fraternization drama. Well, of course it was somewhat a topic here but one of the smaller ones compared to the thrilling main ones.

There was a lot going on in this story that captured me from start to finish. First off was their sexy encounter on the plane. Then, after they found out that he was her professor, they ran hot and cold what with their physical attraction but forbidden nature of it as well as other secret reasons.

Gabriele, Alessandro’s kid, was so hilarious with his constant questioning. I really laughed a lot during this read, which was one of the reasons why I loved it so much.
I also admired how patient Alessandro as well as Piper answered all his noisy questions. This kiddo was so much fun. The author really knows how to create such lovely, cheery and very fun personalities. He was a very important part of the book and I really adored him.

Alessandro was a great guy but closed off to women for a reason. Though Piper slowly found a way into his heart without him realizing it, until it was too late for him to ever let her go.

The story had some thrilling twists and dramatic moments that nearly had my heart jumping out of my chest and made the story feel much more fast paced. At times I also thought that the story jumped from moment to moment which added to the feel of a very quick read. But it didn’t stop there because the characters stepped up a notch too with how they rushed through all kinds of relationship stages while still being strangers. In other words, the book was unputdownable and I finished reading it in no time.

Apart from the grumpy Alessandro and overdramatic and seemingly desperate Piper in the beginning, I personally didn’t know what to think about the generous hospitality towards Piper and her family from strangers. I know there really are people like that but it’s just not me. So, while it felt a bit weird for me, I tried to overlook it because I loved the rest of the book so much.

To sum it up, this story covered a lot of emotions, from hilarious to sweet and suspenseful to heartbreaking ones, there’s everything included and all one could want from a great book.

-- I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book given by the author. --

My rating: 4.5 of 5 Stars
