She's Out of Control
Back of the Book:
Ever been on the verge of buying your own engagement ring?
Ashley Stockingdale, the charming but always-in-over-her-head patent attorney from What A Girl Wants, has finally found the man she wants to marry. But after nine months of dating, it seems her commitment-phobe boyfriend will never use the “M” word. And just when she thinks she’s got it all together, Ashley is having trouble knowing where to put it.
A massive remodeling project, a hyperactive puppy, and an ex-boyfriend who wants to be part of her life again all keep Ashley’s world spinning. As the mayhem escalates, Ashley’s life quickly goes from What a Girl Wants to out of control.
My Review:
I seem to be getting used to Kristin’s writing style. It didn’t strike me as different as before, but I guess that’s to be expected. I found this second book easier to read.
I liked finding out what happens to Ashley. I’m not sure I understood how she overcame her difficulties to level out the craziness of her life even though there was a little part at the end about it.
Parts of this book made me sad because I was rooting for a specific event to occur which ended up not occurring, but I think the ending was much more favorable to her. It sort of reminds me of my life, so I guess I relate well to it. I’m definitely going to read the third book to find out how the marriage plans work out. I’m excited about it, even.
