Review: "The Playboy Bachelor by Rachel van Dyken"

She's no Sleeping Beauty. And he's definitely no prince . . .

Margot McCleery could have lived her whole life without seeing Bentley Wellington again-her ex-best friend and the poster boy for Hot, Rich Man-Whores everywhere. But Margot's whiskey-augmented grandmother "buys" Bentley at a charity bachelor auction, and now suddenly he's at her door. Impossibly charming. Impossibly sexy. And still a complete and utter jackass.

Bentley's just been coerced by his grandfather to spend the next thirty days charming and romancing the reclusive red-haired beauty who hates him. The woman he abandoned when she needed him the most. Bentley knows just as much about romance as he knows about love-nothing. But the more time he spends with Margot, the more he realizes that "just friends" will never be enough. Now all he has to do is convince her to trust him with her heart . . .

Review:
I've had this book on my tbr for a while but never had the urge to pick it up. I wasn't amazed with the first book in this series so when this one came out I wasn't in a rush to read it. I'm glad I read it though. It's a good story and it deals with allot of heavy stuff.

What is this book about:
This book is about Margot and Bentley. They where close friends when they grew up and Margot always had a thing for Bentley but she thought Bentley didn't have the same feelings for her.
Their friendship suddenly changed when Margot got in a horrible accident that cost her allot. She and Bentley never spoke again after that until her crazy grandmother put a plan in order forcing them to be together again for a while.
Margot doesn't want to get close to Bentley again because she knows he would leave at some point. But she can't deny the attraction between them....

What did I like/love:
I loved that this book dealt with heavy subjects like disability, anxiety and loss. I also liked the banter between Margot and Bentley. The man can be really charming if he wants to. I really felt for him and the live's he's had. Money doesn't always mean there's no struggle.

What did I dislike/hate:
Nothing really comes to mind.

Rating:
4 I liked it stars
