All it took was one-night, one-night that was never supposed to happen. Lizzy was supposed to be off limits, she wasn't supposed to be the girl Ben had a good time with, Lizzy is his best friend's little sister and even knowing all that it did fuck all to his control and reason.

But you and me, we’ve never been easy. Minute I saw you, it’s been complicated.

What happened in Vegas definitely didn't stay in Vegas. While Lizzy had hope, Ben had his tantrum of good intentions but lacked any follow through, successfully killing her hope as each day passes. He may have all the right words but his actions are deafening.

“You got my dick on a leash. Might as well have the rest of me.��

“What does that mean?��

“Means I’ve given up getting over you and I’m focusing on getting into you instead.��

Tough love is sometimes needed to see exactly what you would be missing, hopefully Ben can pull his head out of his in time.

Deep was just an okay read for me, while I loved the premise of it, the characters were a bit hard to sympathize with. With Lizzy, I imagined a love sick puppy that would just about do anything for Ben, wishing she had more sass. Ben had all the right words, but I wanted to kick his ass for the way he acted. Even though it's silly, this was one of those books I yelled at in hopes that they would hear you and do something about it. But even though it had it's frustrating moments there was also sweetness and steamy goodness too!
