Book review: One for the Money, by Skye Warren

One for the Money #1

Eva Morelli & Finn Hughes

 If I were to summarize the feelings this book evokes in me I would say: heartbreak.  Finn Hughes and Eva Morelli belong to the upper echelon of New York society, and they are uber rich.  And yet, they are prisoners of sort in their lives, prisoners to their circumstances.

Eva belongs to the Morelli family who are toxic and explosive.  Her father is a drunk and her mother a socialite who only cares about their family image.  The person who is there to help everyone is Eva, she’s the glue that holds that family together.  She’s thirty-three and her mother is coming up with candidates for her hand, older men who have already buried or divorced their first wives and are looking for a replacement, sort of like you do with your used car.  At one of these instances, Finn comes to her rescue and presto, fake relationship!

Finn hides a huge secret that keeps him the way he presents himself to the world, as a billionaire playboy, charming and unreliable except in business.  But as they embark in their fake relationship, Eva realizes there’s more to Finn than what he shows, and she’s resolute to find out.

Both hide secrets, both shun love for different reasons, both have dark sides in their families, and both are the caretakers in their family.  It’s a riveting story, steamy and sad and, at the moment, hopeless.  It ends in a cliffhanger, and hopefully, we can hope for a much more positive outlook in the future installments.  I loved both Eva and Finn, they are not your regular entitled and selfish billionaires, instead caring and giving persons who at the moment are trapped in their circumstances.  They are perfect for each other and I truly hope they can work towards their HEA.
