Synopsis

MOVIE BOOK TRAILER: https://youtu.be/loLaqma2-kg 

Nathan Cross is living his dream. Not only is he modeling for Knight Fashion Magazine, recently voted “sexiest man alive,” but he is dating a beautiful photographer who could be his new future. When he unexpectedly reunites with his past love, his world crashes around him. Two loves. The past or the future: which one will he choose?

Olivia’s past choices come back to haunt her and could ruin everything she has worked so hard to build. Troy has the power to destroy any hope of happiness. She will do everything to keep that from happening, even if it means giving up her second chance with Nathan. Lies. Revenge. Scandal. Olivia could lose it all.


Review

I was hired to proofread this book. Ms. Clarke is probably aware that I would be posting a review because she has hired me in the past, but it was not part of our agreement. I just review every book I read. If you feel that my connection to the book makes my review untrustworthy, so be it, but this is my honest review. 

This book is the sequel to Sexiest Man Alive, so this review may contain spoilers for that book, the book definitely does. Continue reading at your own risk if you have not read Sexiest Man Alive yet. I do think it is possible to read these books out of order, but I really wouldn't recommend it. You will have a  better sense of Olivia and Nathan's history if you read them in order.

When I started reading this book, I had forgotten how the previous book ended, and it picks up right there, so I had an immediate shock. Also I felt stupid for having forgotten where the story left off. It wasn't that long ago that I read Sexiest Man Alive

I felt like the story was fairly predictable at times, although it did throw me for a loop a time or two as well. The romantic element was satisfying, although I felt like it happened very easily (but the two do have a past together, so I guess it's not too unrealistic). 

Overall I give Sexiest Couple Alive 4 out of 5 stars. - Katie
