Persuading Annie
By Melissa Nathan
Annie Markham
was in love with Jake Mead when she was young. Then came the unpredicted
pregnancy scare. Although Annie thought everything would work out
fine, it turned out that the scare was just that- a scare. After
Jake found out, he ran off leaving bad feelings between the two
of them,. Fast forward seven years later, Annie is in the midst
of her fathers deteriorating business and financial crisis.
They
decide to call in a financial advisor. Annie is less than thrilled
when she discovers that Jake is her fathers newly appointed
financial advisor. Now,the both of them must find a way to forgive
each other and move on. Unless of course, those old sparks are reignited.
Persuading
Annie is a light read. The pace is fast and although predictable,
there were many funny scenes that make the book worth reading. I
very much enjoyed Annie and her family. It took me a little longer
to warm up to Jake but when I did, I found myself very impressed
with his layers. All in all, Persuading Annie is a good read.
