{Review} {giveaway} Dazed by Kim Karr

Synopsis:

Jagger Kennedy never went looking for fame, he just fell into it. After scoring a major modeling contract, his clean-cut good looks and charm catapulted his career. But when his actress girlfriend breaks his heart, he moves to L.A. to try his hand at acting. He’s not looking for love—he just needs to make a change.

Aerie Daniels is a woman in control … until she meets Jagger. Her surprising connection with him leaves her dazed and it’s unlike anything she’s ever felt. But just when she lets her walls fall, she makes a startling discovery about Jagger that breaks her fragile heart into a million pieces.

To keep from losing the woman who’s changing his world, Jagger is willing to give up anything—including his career. But even that might not be enough to regain Aerie’s shattered trust…

My Thoughts

Dazed was a quick read but it packed a whole lot of entertainment. There were times where I wanted to scream, laugh, cry, smack each character upside the head and the book was only about 130 pages long!!

Jagger is a sweet character who happens to fall for Aerie. Aerie on the other hand, is a type A personality and she has to be in control of every single detail of her life. But when Jagger comes into town and turns it upside down, her personality begins to get a makeover. Of course until all the drama hits and then she retreats back to what she knows.

There was just enough angst to give the story a punch but not enough to really drive you crazy! It was more entertaining and sweet than full of soap opera drama. I loved the Alice in Wonderland references and I really loved the banter back and forth between Jagger and Aerie.

I know this was a novella so it had to be quick but I felt that the overall relationship was kind of rushed. I know the whole insta-connection is there, just like Kim's other stories, but I felt like there needed to be a little more between them.

Still didn't take from the story at all, I am just picky ;)...

Overall I give this novella 4/5 stars and if you love the Connection Series then you will LOVE this novella as well!!
