She was meant to be portrayed as this mature and somewhat perfect girl, but she actually did act her age of 19, and sometimes younger. I just didn't find it a believable relationship. I didn't really like this one that much.not necessarily because of the age gap my parents have almost 9 years between them, but because of the maturity of the characters, and their suitability for each other. I've been putting off this review because quite a few of my friends on here love this! Apologies to those of you who did love this, please don't be offended, different tastes and all that. It was exhilarating, made me giddy, and was a perfect mix of everything I love in a book. I gobbled it up, not able to stop reading for a second.
I’ve read a lot of Penelope Douglas books, and I have to say, Birthday Girl is my favorite of hers to date. This book had all this and more in spades. When there is push and pull and you are completely on the edge of your seat. I love when there is a great slow burn and the sexual tension is so freaking high your siting on pins and needles just waiting and waiting for that one moment… I love angst and when two people have undeniable chemistry, even when it’s obvious they shouldn’t. I love forbidden romance and taboo love stories. I’ve wanted her since the first time I saw her. “You’ve always watched me, haven’t you? Always wanted to have your fun with me.” I falter, knowing what she says is true. You just need to read it for yourself to see how this one turns out… The sparks between Pike and Jordan fly, even though neither one wants that. He’s a great man and wants to help out his son. He gets them in a bit of a tough spot and they end up moving in with Cole’s father, Pike.
She may be only nineteen, but she’s a hard worker and wise beyond her years. Jordan is a strong and independent woman. This book was straight up addicting and I loved every minute! I wanted to slow down and enjoy the story, but I had to know what would happen. I stayed up till 4 am reading this book the night it landed on my kindle. Birthday Girl by Penelope Douglas blew me away! Once I read the synopsis for this book, I knew it would be one that I would drop everything to read.
