Recommendation
I have been on a quest to read some new authors before #Shameless18, so I started with Alexandria Sure. This is a super cute story that took me right back to my college days. Linc is adorable with his crush on Alexis, even though she is a bit heavier than the usual girls he is interested in, and her size is something they both struggle with. Although the characters don’t complete their journey in this book, the author has said that it is a prequel, so I am looking forward to seeing where they end up.
Publisher synopsis
He expected her to recognize him.
He expected her to be seduced by his charms.
He expected her to fall for him.
Expectations are a funny thing …
When his parents named him Herbert Lincoln James, they already had expectations that Linc would attend an ivy league university and go into politics. Linc didn't. As captain of his swim team, he was expected to win the big relay to carry his swim team to the state championship for the first time in decades. Linc didn’t. Society expected him to walk past her. He couldn’t.
She expected him to see through her.
She expected him to make her into a joke.
She expected him to be cruel.
Expectations are a funny thing …
