My Review
'REJECTED:'
is the second stand alone romance book by 'New to me author' Lym Cruz 'Imperfectly Perfect' series. In this we meet (Christina and Ezra). Spoken in 'Dual Perspectives.' This book deals with real life problems.
This book took me completely by surprise. So many twists and turns that even I didn't see coming they just came at me out of nowhere which I loved, I loved that element of surprise! It did take me a bit to connect with our heroine Christina, anger seemed to be her constant companion along with a couldn't care less attitude with a sharp tongue which could cut you down swiftly, BUT colour me blind because towards the end she did start to grow on me, and she came across more real allowing me to empathise with her and her insecurities, we all wear scars just some are better hidden.

In the beginning we see a rejected Ezra getting turned down by Melissa, a girl that he'd harboured a crush on for years so that was the catalyst with him wanting to make more of himself he finds himself in situations where he's well over his head which could in turn jeopardise his loved ones.
One night out at a club where he's closing out a deal he sees Melissa's close friend Christina intoxicated and jumps in and takes her back to Melissa's place to sober up.
As her two friends lives seem to be on the up and up her life is on stand still, broke and unemployed but life started to look up for her when she lands a job at an accounting firm. The only downer is she'll be working alongside Ezra, the guy she can't stand, even being close to him makes her skin crawl.
A slow burn office romance commenced, I loved their post it notes, the quick banter backwards and forwards, the ending definitely had me thinking that there was more to come and I for one would love to read more.
"Why couldn't you see me before?"
"All these years we've known each other but you never saw me."
"That's because I had my eyes fixed in the wrong direction."
"But I won't ever take my eyes away from you. I've found my north star."
