The Distance Between Us-Kasie West

It's book like this that break my heart, cause all I want is an Xander and he doesn't exist and it's killing me. I think I've found out why guys in my town don't like reading it's probably because it creates such high standards they just can't live up too.
Seventeen-year-old Caymen Meyers studies the rich like her own personal science experiment, and after years of observation she’s pretty sure they’re only good for one thing—spending money on useless stuff, like the porcelain dolls in her mother’s shop.

So when Xander Spence walks into the store to pick up a doll for his grandmother, it only takes one glance for Caymen to figure out he’s oozing rich. Despite his charming ways and that he’s one of the first people who actually gets her, she’s smart enough to know his interest won’t last. Because if there’s one thing she’s learned from her mother’s warnings, it’s that the rich have a short attention span. But Xander keeps coming around, despite her best efforts to scare him off. And much to her dismay, she's beginning to enjoy his company.

She knows her mom can’t find out—she wouldn’t approve. She’d much rather Caymen hang out with the local rocker who hasn’t been raised by money. But just when Xander’s attention and loyalty are about to convince Caymen that being rich isn’t a character flaw, she finds out that money is a much bigger part of their relationship than she’d ever realized. And that Xander’s not the only one she should’ve been worried about.


This book is cheesy yes i'll admit it, it isn't very unique or original but what's so wrong with that. Sometimes all I want is a cheesy romance to make the world seem like a brighter bigger place. So if you hate cheesy books don't read this, but if your a die hard romance fan please do.
Caymen- she has been forced to think a certain way, RICH ARE BAD, she is easy to relate to she's confused in this big world that's blooming with oppurtinies but she can't take any of them cause theres one thing holding her back. MONEY. Her mom hates the rich, she got knocked up by one and he ran away and she never looked backed she just decided rich are bad. which pissed me off a lot. Rich aren't bad you'd rather have your daughter hanging out with trash than a sweet boy who dresses well. Caymen was stupid at times, and she has sarcasm and dry humor that puts every joke I've heard to shame.
Xander- is a rich boy, who doesn't want to follow in his dads footsteps, he knows being rich ain't easy. He dresses nice and has a big heart well only for some people. Xander he was real, cause he had problems too, he shut down and woke up and got pissed and kissed. 
Overall I really enjoyed this book, it is cheesy, but I couldn't put it down, it was just too good. I give it a 4 out of 5
