Book Review-The devil's own Chloe


Young Parisian architect Chloe Germain hires childhood friend Hugo Bonnet as a builder. Lethally toxic to loved ones, Chloe keeps them at arm's length to protect them.
Or so she thinks.
Patient and strong, Hugo prides himself on being able to fix anything. Trouble is, he's never tried repairing a chasm in someone's soul before.
Will his love save Chloe or will fixing her leave him broken?    AMAZON



I found this book to be different, quirky, charming and unusual.  Part of that quirkiness I think  comes from the main character, Chloe.  She has some really twisted way of looking at things. That definitely keeps everything interesting.  It also helps her go through men like they are water.  No strings, no attachments, no real relationships.  As I read the story I realized that Hugo was the eternal optimist, and Chloe is the master of doom and Murphy's Law.  She's always waiting for the other shoe to drop. Even with all of that, I still really liked her.  A lot.  And Hugo?  What's not to like about him? He's a good guy, in fact he's a great guy.  He's never given up on Chloe although at times he doesn't totally understand what makes her tick.
I also have to make mention of there being other interesting secondary people in the story as well.


I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
