The Good Girl Effect by Sara Cate

Rating: 2 out of 5.

Review

So many issues with this book. Let’s start off with the pacing. My god, so incredible slow. So boring! There’s ZERO actual relationship building going on. The author made the love for Jack’s late wife so strong that in the end the insta love didn’t work. And Camille?! Gosh, she was just too desperate. I couldn’t feel their passion. And don’t even get me started on how bad of a parenting Jack was… 

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ This is book 1 in the Salacious Legacy Series. Each book in this series features a different couple and can be read as a complete standalone. But for maximum enjoyment, follow the recommended reading order.

❝ Jack St. Claire is gorgeous, rich, and older—and the one person I can’t get involved with. For one, he’s far out of my league. Two, he’s still grieving his late wife. And three, I’m his daughter’s nanny.❞

❝ I wish I could tell him what an ill-tempered, miserable grump he is. He’d probably tell me what a foolish, immature brat I am. So I guess in that case, we really shouldn’t talk to each other at all.❞

Jack St. Claire is desperate. A grieving single father, he buries himself in his work—running a brand-new kink club in Paris. Instead of handling his grief, he’s built a fortress around his heart, and it’s time he hired someone to help him take care for his daughter before things get worse.

Camille Aubert wasn’t looking for a new job. She just wanted to return a lost love letter she’d found within the pages of a book. But when she’s mistaken for a job candidate and hired as Jack’s live-in nanny, something tells her this is exactly where she needs to be.

Shortly after arriving, Camille discovers a strange room in the apartment that sparks her curiosity—and hints at a dark, mysterious side to Jack that she’s desperate to uncover. The lines between professional and personal blur dangerously as the heat between them becomes impossible to ignore. She’s drawn to the broken man who hides his grief in ropes and bondage, and she challenges him in ways he never thought possible.

Caught between her growing feelings for Jack and the ghosts of his past, Camille must can love heal a heart still grieving, or will their passion destroy them both?
