Review
I received this book in return
for a honest review from the author. The book is mainly about Nixie Veidt and
her life after her father dies. As her father dies on his deathbed Nixie is
directed to Conrad a business connection who will help her get the money in a
safe spot before her mother can take it all and be her guardian. However it's
never that simple and Nixie faces the threat of being arrested but Morten the
cop provides a option of marriage that will keep the cops at bay as well as her
mother from trying to claim guardianship.
She has to wait till her 19th birthday before she can end
the marriage and be with Kolya the Russian dancer she is in love
with. Nixie and Kolya spend all her money trying to make a ballet company
take off expecting it to be easy it turns into a hardship that will test their
relationships as well as the relationships of those around them. Since Nixie is
married to Morten, her dancer Kolya takes on a lover of his own Lea who he
falls for leaving Nixie feeling very alone.
I loved Nixie as a character she won me over even though I would
have gone crazy if I was here. She's such a strongly written character. In the
book she has to make a few hard choices that change her life forever. She's
goes through a lot during the progression of the book, and I watched her
character go from a shallow debutante to owner
of a ballet company.
I found the story entertaining, it drew me in right from the
start and I had a hard time putting it down this afternoon. I tend to
avoid love triangles because I always feel bad for the one that doesn't get
picked however the author Kea put's a unique twist on the love triangle and
didn't mind it at all. I found myself rooting for the cop Morten because he is
so in love with Nixie and puts up with so much just because he wants to make
her happy. It's just a really sweet love story and I really enjoyed it.
