Olivier by Brenda Rothert

 











3 Star

Olivier is not used to being hounded by reporters like his players but after he saves the life of a senator’s daughter from a burning car, he can’t get them to leave him alone. He’s now trending on Twitter where everyone wants Olivier and Daphne to have a fairytale romance and happy ending. Neither of them is interested in that but to appease the masses and the reporters they meet up. Olivier is attracted to her and is interested in spending more time with her. Daphne hates being told what to do and when her parents push her to spend time with Olivier, she’s not sure what to do with him. Will they find their happy ending?

I wanted to like this more then I did but I didn’t like Daphne. She was hard to connect with. If her mom said the sky was blue, then she argued it was green. Even though she liked Olivier she wasn’t interested in pursuing him because that was what her parents wanted. Like I get not wanting to do what your parents want but if you like him why would you walk away from something that could be great just because it’s what your parents want. She was younger than him which isn’t a problem usually, but she read younger than her actual age. I can’t even describe how ridiculous she was. At one point he donates funds to her nonprofit and she gets mad about it and then gets out of her own head and contacts him. He happened to have left his phone off for a weekend away with his daughter and she got mad that he didn’t respond right away. She understood why after he explained but it was just ridiculous couple of scenes. Overall, it fit in with the rest of the series and it was definitely not my favorite book.
