I received this book for free from Publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

As a driver for her local ride share app, Charlie Owens loves what the open road gives her: freedom, extra cash for an epic road trip, and a path to getting out of her sleepy town of Chester Falls, Massachusetts. She’s seen her fair share of mysterious passengers and explosive break-ups in the backseat of her car, but Charlie lives a no-strings-attached lifestyle and never gets involved.

But when a routine post-party pick-up ends with Charlie crashing into Andre, her school’s notorious party boy, she’s forced to make a deal to drive him anywhere he needs to go, anytime, until his car can be repaired. Suddenly Charlie and Andre are stuck together, and they couldn’t be more different. But Andre’s charm wins over Charlie’s passengers, and she soon finds herself at risk of breaking her most sacred rule: don’t fall in love.

Short and Sweet Review

Charlie is a driver for a ride share company, she loves her job because of the freedom it gives her and the extra cash isn’t so bad either. But after a pick up ends in Charlie hitting someones car she has to think fast, which is when she offers the owner of the other car, Andre rides anywhere and anytime.

This book was not what I was expecting from the synopsis. I was expecting more car rides and learning about the passengers, but what I got was some car rides with Andre and Charlie’s other customers and a big focus on Charlie trying to impress an architect, and her obsession with leaving her small town of Chester Falls. So Charlie and Andre are very different I would describe Charlie as uptight and by the book, she’s been a ride share driver and one of the top rated but we learn she’s not very personable. Andre is a party boy and laid back, he on the other hand has the ability to relate and connect with Charlies passengers and even gives advice. Charlie and Andre buttheads a lot so I didn’t really feel the romance between the two especially towards the end where Charlie jumps to conclusions and wouldn’t even hear Andre out. The other subplot was Charlie trying to impress Ava and get an internship so Charlie try to find projects she can rework to show Ava for her portfolio. Charlie has great ideas its just that she doesn’t listen to what her clientele would want. Charlie is also obsessed with leaving Chester Falls because she doesn’t think there’s anything for her there, she even criticizes her parents for being there and basically not doing anything with there lives. When she blew up on her parents and Andre I just knew I didn’t like her. Honestly Charlie wouldn’t really listen to people and would come up with her own conclusions and that was her biggest downfall as a character.

Overall this book was okay, it was a fast read, it wasn’t what I was hopping for but it was enjoyable.
