This is a bad boy/ good girl love story. And while I enjoyed the story it took me a bit to get there. I had problems with Molly not going off on Arden when she gets put in the position of paying off her debt. But as Molly and Cash grew closer I started to like her more. As Molly loosens up so does Cash but in a different way and when they come together in the end well all I can say is *le sigh*.

To sum it up, this book is boring. Might be the most boring book I read this year with characters that act like a bunch of teenager, can't feel the chemistry between h/H and boring story. I also skip some parts, because it's make me yawn.

Molly (can't take a heroine seriously with that name. Always remind me of Molly Weasley from Harry Potter *shudder*) is a boring heroine, too much have "snow queen" archetype, try so hard to be "good girl gone bad", have a backbone in the first chapter, but back to her doormat state after that. Her relationship with the hero, Beaugrad "Cash" Campbel, imo, feel forced. Their sex also left me cold, since I can't connect to them both. The angst and drama make me rolling my eyes. I will not said that this one is erotica, just steamy. Have a word such as pussy, slut, whore, etc didn't mean your story will be labeled as erotica. I expect scorching hot sex scenes, together with a believable chemistry and a blistering sexual tension, alas, Ms Green failed in this.

One character that make me pissed off is Arden, Molly's friend that addicted to gambling and it's her fault in the first place because she offer Molly as part of her debt after she lose to Cash in the game. Yeah, such a friend Molly has. Good thing she have Sofie, another friend. Even Sofie sometimes act too much like a mother hen, she also the character that I can relate and liked.

This is the first time I read Ms Green's book and I'm very sad that I can't enjoy Rough and Tumble.
