Elevator Heat by B.D. Rowe

Synopsis
 
New Adult Contemporary Romance

Twenty-year-old Maddie has had a crush on Colin, her studly internship supervisor, for three long months. She struggles focusing on her work, and always finds herself gazing at his wavy brown hair, his chiseled cheekbones, his kissable lips. Little does she know, however, that he has feelings for her, too.


The problem is no matter how much time they spend together in the office, neither one can ever make the first move.

That is, until they both step into the old, rickety elevator late one Friday night.

And things start to get a little steamy...

**Mature Situations and Sexual Content - Recommended for Ages 17+**

 
My Review
 ★ ★ ☆☆☆
 
Elevator Heat was not what I was expecting.
 
I couldn't really get into it. The only reason why I finished this book, is because I actually wanted to know what was going to happen to the characters. While I didn't like it very much, it did keep my attention.
 
I didn't like how the book went back and forth through the two main characters point of view. They just kept repeating everything, but from each characters point of view. It would have been much better if it was just from one point of view, or if each point of view explained something different.
 
I think the title of this book is very misleading. The book is called Elevator Heat, but they didn't do anything until the end of the book. The entire time they were stuck in the elevator, they only talked. Yes, every book has to start somewhere, but this book just got worse and worse for me.
 
I thought it wasn't very realistic. The two characters were in love with each other, but they barely said ten words to each other. Okay maybe it was love at first sight, but there was nothing in the book that led to that.
 
Over all I really couldn't get into this book. The title and the description is what hooked me, but the book itself did not follow through.
