5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Book, September 4, 2000

By A Customer

I thought this was a great book. In it, Bruce finally responded to Jessica's flirtations. However, once they were a couple, Bruce used Jessica and cheated on her. At first, Jessica was unwilling to believe Bruce would do that to her, but she finally realized that he was. In the end they broke up. I really enjoyed this book. But I thought it was strange when Jessica let Bruce walk all over her. That was out of character for her.

I loved this book! In this one Jessica falls for the handsome, rich Bruce Patman. What Bruce wants he gets and he wants Jessica. Jessica's selfish ways gets her in alot of trouble. Blowing off her friends, being Bruces slave, even cheating on a test! I couldint put this book down it was so good! Elizabeth dosent like Bruce. She thinks he is arrogant, demanding, and goes way to fast in realtionships. Will Elizabeth convince Jessica that shes totally wrong about Bruce? You will have to read to find out!
