And a half . This was my first Everly Chase book and it was an interesting story. I found myself intrigued by the marriage of convenience/proxy marriage storyline. The potential is there and I liked where the author was going with it but I found it hard to follow. I can’t exactly say why but I found the story a bit choppy in places and not always easy to follow, a bit confusing. None the less the potential is there because the main characters of Rex and Eloise are interesting and the basic premise is a good one.
