10 pages into this book, I was worried that I was going to be disappointed in this book. By the end of the second chapter, I couldn't get enough. To the point where I stayed up until midnight and woke up at 6 to finish the book, barely getting the garbage out in time and risking a tardy for my son.

I think that what turned me off in the beginning is that the main character is really into business, to the point where she doesn't seem human, which is sad, as the finish chapter has her losing her boyfriend, her business and her best friend. By the end of the book, she is human and you've watched her become someone you want to be friends with. Not only that, you realize that she was human in that first chapter, she just hid it from the reader and herself behind business. I love how the main character learns to balance life with business.
