Hooking up is only the beginning of the fun in this sexy and irresistible second installment of the thrilling New Adult series, Boomerang. At Boomerang, one night can change everything...Adam Blackwood has it all. At twenty-two, he's fabulously wealthy, Ryan Gosling-hot and at the top of his game in the business world. His life is perfect, until a scandal from his past resurfaces and threatens to knock the tech wunderkind down and throw his company, Boomerang, a hook-up site for millennials, into chaos. Alison Quick, the twenty-one-year-old daughter of a business tycoon-and the very ex-girlfriend of Boomerang's former intern, Ethan-has a problem of her own. After nearly flunking out in her senior year of college, she has one chance to redeem herself to her father by proving that she deserves a place in his corporate empire. That means spearheading her father's plan to sink big money into Adam's company and launch it into the stratosphere-provided Adam has no skeletons in his closet. When the two meet, their sizzling chemistry makes it tough to keep things strictly professional.
But when Alison discovers Adam's secret, she knows she should bring it right to her father, who'll leverage it for his own gain and use it to ruin Adam. The only problem: she's falling for Adam-hard. Will earning her father's approval come at the price of losing her first real love? Or can Adam and Alison leave behind past mistakes and conquer the world-together?
REBOUND is the story of Boomerang CEO Adam Blackwell and Allison Quick, the daughter of the investor who's going to help Adam make a new company, Blackwell Entertainment, a reality. Both of them had an agenda: Adam, to make his company successful and Allison, to prove to her father that she had business sense. But they ended up discovering a whole lot more about themselves and each other that didn't involve bottom lines.
This story was cute and I liked Adam and Allison together, but I had a hard time connecting with the story. Maybe it was the fact that both of these characters seemed to have so much at such a young age. Maybe it was the business with Allison's father and his underhanded cliched way of getting what he wants. There was just something I couldn't connect with. That doesn't mean that this isn't a story other would enjoy (if you look at the review, others obviously have). Adam and Allison did have chemistry together and that was what had me continuing to turn the pages, even if I didn't really care what came next.
