One week.
Private beach.
Invisible girl.
Jerk-faced bully.
What’s the worst that could happen?
Kaitlyn Parker has no problem being the invisible girl, which is why she finds herself hiding in various cabinets and closets all over her college campus. Despite her best efforts, she can’t escape the notice of Martin Sandeke—bad boy, jerkface bully, and the universe’s hottest, wealthiest, and most unobtainable bachelor—who also happens to be Kaitlyn’s chemistry lab partner.
Kaitlyn might be the only girl who isn’t interested in exploiting his stunning rower’s build, chiseled features, and family's billionaire fortune. Kaitlyn wants Martin for his brain, specifically to tabulate findings of trace elements in surface water.
When Kaitlyn saves Martin from a nefarious plot, Martin uses the opportunity to push Kaitlyn out of her comfort zone: spring break, one week, house parties, bathing suits, and suntan lotion. Can she overcome her aversion to being noticed? Will he be able grow beyond his self-centered nature? Or, despite their obvious chemistry, will Martin be the one to drive Kaitlyn into the science cabinet of obscurity for good?
Attraction is a short novella and I had been dying to read it for ages due to the blurb. It sounded so intriguing.
Starting the book we are introduced to Kaitlyn in a cupboard, doing what in there I have no clue because she doesn't seem anything like a timid, scared, shy girl. From the blurb I had presumed she hid in closest because of him, Martin, but it's not. Why she does it is anyone's guess.
The book was so funny at first, the things she said and the way she said them made me laugh, but then, 11% in the book it got old. It got so annoying having to keep looking up certain words to see what they meant it annoyed me.
Also, Kaitlyn's character was a puzzle. For someone so Clever, she was thick at the same time. I just didn't get it. She comes off this strong independent woman, but then there are times when I think, did she really just fall for that or say that!!!
The blurb tells us that the book ends on a cliffhanger, but all it felt like was it finishing mid-sentence. I won't be reading the next one. I didn't connect well enough and I hated the characters because they all seemed so alike. Even a jock, play boy player seems to have swallowed a dictionary.
Another reason I won't be continuing is because there was nothing there. Nothing that stood out to say...'ohhhh I want to know how that ends.' There was no build up or anything.
