Plot

Mia Cresswell is tired of being a good girl so she makes it her mission to act bad on her vacation from college. That’s where Kye comes in. Kye is just what Mia is looking for: a bad boy Aussie with an accent to die for and an affinity for being bad and not caring what anyone thinks. But Mia is keeping a secret from Kye on their one night, steamy fling: she’s the daughter of Dirk Cresswell, the guy who owns the tennis academy that is giving Kye is last chance at professional tennis. And Kye will do anything that have that last chance and to make his father proud. The feelings between Mia and Kye can’t be denied, but is Kye going to risk throwing it all away for love?

This novel is short. Hence, the pacing was a bit on the speedy side. It felt like the romance was moving at a slightly too-fast pace, as well as all the events that happened in the novel. This fact made it less believable than it should have been as a contemporary novel. However, other than the pacing problem, it kept my interest the entire read through. I read it in one sitting.

Leading Lady

Mia was looking to be bad for her vacation because she was tired of being good and tired of being smothered by her loving father. Mia was a pretty relatable character. The only problem that I had with her was how quickly her feelings evolved for Kye which was more of a pacing problem than a character problem. She respected his wishes, though, and tried to be just friends because that’s all he was willing to give. She was a very caring and mellow character but she also had her snarky side and I loved seeing that side emerge.

Leading Male

Kye was suffering from some things that happened in his past. It was the typical hurt guy turned bad boy trope. Regardless of that, I enjoyed seeing his vulnerable side and how much was saw it. Usually with these types of book characters we see it once or twice for the whole novel. He let his vulnerable side show more often and that gave him a more realistic feel as a character. He didn’t make the best decisions but he also didn’t let people hold him back. He moved through his problems at a good pace and I enjoyed watching him do so.

Romance

The premise of their relationship was that Mia wanted one night of being bad. So you can tell where it started. However, from their very first interaction with was obvious how well their characters clicked. When they were together I was constantly laughing from the snarky banter that was exchanged between the two of them. On the not-so-happy side, Mia definitely helped Kye move through some of his emotional problems. They had fun together but could also be serious with one another. It was also fun to see how long they could sneak around without being caught and putting Kye’s career in danger.

Other Characters

Dani was Mia’s best friend and there was definitely more than what meets the eye with her. She did some crappy-things in this novel and although we got a surface-reason of why she did those things, I am interested to read her story in Towing the Line.

Conclusion

Although Crossing the Line had a few pacing problems, it was still a good, quick contemporary read.

Crossing the Line World Apart Book 1 edition by Nicola Marsh Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

I admit that I was a little apprehensive about reading this story at first, for two reasons. For one..... I had never read anything written by this author and two... it was a new adult romance, which I usually find too immature for my tastes. But...I am happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised. Yes, all the characters are in their early twenties, but they have all had more than their share of hard knocks while growing up.

The romance was really hot! And the sparks flew between Mia & Kye, even when they tried so hard to deny how they felt about one another. I found this to be a fast and entertaining story, with a believable romance between two young lovers finding their way in the world with help from each other.

However; I was sort of disappointed with the ending. No it not a cliff hanger, but it does seem to end a little too abruptly, and it leaves a lot of questions unanswered, at least for me.. Things like...how did her father take the news about Kye? Did the two of them end up getting married? Do they stay in school and earn their degrees? I know this is part of a series, and that some of these questions might get answered in the next book, but it would have been nice to have a short epilogue at the end in order to tie up these loose ends.
If you need a quick read then I suggest this book. Mia is a nerdy (in her mind) college girl who has come home for her school's break. Kye is an Aussie tennis player who has been pegged as having a temper. Sparks fly as these two try to fight their attraction to each other. I really enjoyed the storyline as Mia tried to break through Kye's defensive stance during the first part of the book. The tide turned during the second part and Kye was the one in pursuit. I did have a bit of an issue with Dani, Mia's best friend. Dual point of view. No cliffhanger. Short read.
Mia is tired of being the good girl, and decides it's time to have some fun whilst being as bad as any girl can be. So when she heads off to her father's tennis academy she's more than determined to get as down and dirty as possible.

She sets her sights on tennis champ Kye. But Kye is there in order to sort out his messed up life and get a chance at the big time and by screwing the boss's daughter he will for darn sure ruin any chance he has to get in with the big players.

But as every girl out there will tell you, when you have your mind set on "Let's do this" there is no stopping and you will push all the buttons or lose them , in order to get what who you want.

Kye is therefore pretty much a goner and soon he and Mia start up a passionate affair, but when the vacation is over will it still be Kye wanting to get to the top of his game and Mia wanting to go back to being little miss goody two shoes or will their vacation romance blossom into something more than just a lust full vacation fling?

I enjoyed this read, the romance between the main characters was well balanced and it was interesting to read about how it plays out. Mia's best friend Dani was the character of intrigue and mystery in this book, and at one stage I found myself wanting to slam the girl into a wall for being such a bitch , but as they say jealousy makes you nasty and the author perfectly portrayed that through the character of Dani, and I will also add that Dani has her very own little secret that will be brought to light in the next installment of the series.

The character of Kye was your typical guy's guy, a little lost in life and trying to find his feet back to normal ground again , so him ending up with the temptation of the boss's daughter and her "Do me now" attitude was fun to see. It totally knocks the poor guy from his " I have to get back on track " plan. And it shows just how easy one can be side tracked from a perfectly good thought out plan.

The character of Mia was at first I thought a bit too much, but only in the sense of the "Really? You want to go all bad ass just to get over your geeky image?" I have never believed that is the right approach to getting noticed in life, but sadly some girls do actually think exactly like Mia does, so very realistic touch Nicola!. Through the character of Mia the author showed that when you try to be something you're not, you might end up becoming someone you don't want to be but due to your actions you have no choice but to ride it out or find a solution to bring you back down to earth and the correct way of thinking without a clouded vision of wanting to be someone you have never really been. What others think of you is never as important as what you think of yourself.

I am taking away a message of life has a way of showing us who we are meant to be, there's a reason you are who you are. You might not think it very exciting being who you are, so yes the natural solution is to get up and try something new. But don't go doing the extreme, take baby steps and along the way you will find the real you is so much more valuable than the image you conjured up in your mind.
