Synopsis
When twenty-year-old Kendall Jordan transfers clear across country to Garrison University, the last thing she’s looking for is a one-night stand. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what, gorgeous, Cruise Elton offers.
Kendall has long since come to realize that love is an illusion that never lasts, and Cruise couldn’t agree more—but something deep inside her wants him all for herself. So, Kendall devises a seat of the pants plan to “play the player” and proposes that Cruise tutor her in becoming a female version of himself, Garrison University’s own playboy.
Real feelings begin to emerge, and neither Kendall nor Cruise know how to classify them. Everything they once thought they knew is redefined as they discover, in one another, Someone to Love.
4.5 star review by Lisa Kane
"I suppose this was just a test," I say. "I guess I failed because a player never commits."
Addison Moore's Someone to Love is a bitter sweet romance featuring two individuals who on the surface at least, appear to have different sets of values and ideals. Kendall Jordan is the good girl; good grades, good friends, good choices. Cruise Elton is a whole lot of bad; bad attitude, bad ass looks and just bad news. Kendall transfers in to Garrison college and by way of a mix up on the part of a family friend, Pennington, has no dorm or housing. When Kendall and Cruise meet at a frat party, sparks fly, but Kendall knows Cruise is a player even if he oozes sex and looks like a walking, breathing Adonis. It turns out Cruise's mom owns a bed and breakfast and he offers Kendall a temporary place to stay. The more Kendall grows disenchanted with her good girl image the more she entertains having the resident man whore teach her in what she calls a "social experiment". After seeing her mother marry over and over, she decides maybe it's time for her to change her life and her image. Cruise wasn't always the sex he appears to be, but he put his trust in the wrong person, felt a deep betrayal and had since decided relationships bring hurt and a continual string of one night stands brings fun. What happens when these two have major attitude adjustments? What if Cruise has found the one who can help him heal and what if Kendall has found someone she can be herself with and still have a good time?
"You do realize that I'm going to have to arrest you for taking off with my heart again."
Moore's novel is an easy read, with just the right touch of humor, sex and angst. Enjoy
"You're on a road show with your penis, and trust me, I'm the last person who wants to get in your way. But I'm telling you, operation occupy-my-vagina is a no-go for the evening."
