My Review: I had to argue with myself over this book. I think this is one of those instances where the timing wasn't right for me, maybe? This book is very good, and the story is solid. Normally, this is something that I would fawn all over. But it took me too long to like the hero and heroine.
Characterization is important. I can forgive pretty much anything if I love the main characters enough. But Nash and Nixie took their time becoming people I cared about, it was hard for me to really sink into the story. And that makes this book hard to rate - I liked them eventually, and the story was spot on, but the beginning felt so rocky for me.

Cover Lovin': So bright, shiny, and eye-catching!
Recommendation: No prior knowledge needed.
Final Rating: THREE out of FIVE stars (3/5)!! This was a very good book, it just took me a little too long to get into the characters.
Happy Reading!

About Deal Breaker:
Nixie Rowland is having a bad day. Rushing home to drown her sorrows in ice cream and reality television, she decides to take a shortcut to the subway where things take a turn for the worst. But Nixie’s bad luck doesn’t end there—the white knight who comes to her rescue is none other than the Dark Knight of Wall Street, a cocky Manhattan mogul whose ego barely fits inside his penthouse. To her horror, Nixie discovers the sizzling attraction between them is off the charts, and rising fast. Spending the night in his bed does nothing to lower the heat… And everything to set her heart on fire.
Nash Knight doesn’t have room in his life, or his heart, for anything beyond one-night stands or casual flings. And he certainly doesn’t make a habit of rescuing damsels in distress. Except that this particular damsel slips beneath his armor, the vulnerability she covers with a false show of bravado hitting him somewhere deep. Nixie is everything he never wanted… And exactly what he needs.
With Nixie on the run from a controlling ex, and Nash trying to salvage a business deal at risk because his conquests in the bedroom are overshadowing his wins in the boardroom, there’s one simple solution for them both: a marriage in name only. But when lust becomes love, will their untamed emotions be a deal breaker?
