Book Review 

Untouchable by Lindsay Delagair 

 

Picking a boyfriend can be murder, but for Annalisa Winslett, it might end up being the literal death of her.

No one at Pensacola High School suspects the girl they know as Annalisa McKinnis to be a wealthy heiress in hiding, but things begin to unravel when two new guys enroll. Both guys are gorgeous, and both are trying to win her over. The only problem is that one of them has a million dollar contract to put a bullet in her.

When her pure and innocent heart is offered to him, will this cold and empty hitman fall, or will he remain untouchable?

This book is the beginning of a wild ride in a trilogy that will make you wonder if the power of love can truly conquer all. Book one builds the tension for the passion and erotic connection that blooms in book two (Unforgivable), and book three (Untraceable) brings you to the astonishing conclusion of the star-crossed lovers.

Spoiler Warning:

This plot was interesting and original but I had a few major problems the first being all the strong Christian undertones. I don't have anything religion but it was a little much throughout the novel. Annalisa all but forces Evan to go to church with her. I also couldn't get over the idea that Annalisa could fall in love with a killer. Not just any killer, but the guy who is sent to kill her. Let's be real he was willing to befriend a random innocent girl make her trust him and then turn around and kill her. Only a person with a serious lack in morals would be okay with that; not someone I would want to date. Also her reaction to the fact she has a death sentence is nonresistant she's like, "well, if you have to kill me, okay, just make sure you kiss me first. And make it quick." Oh Hell No! Who reacts that way?!? Evan was also a little pushy; it's rather creepy that he told her he wanted to sleep with her before he killed her. Annalisa has some serious flaws in her personality she should be running to the police protecting her own life.

Basically Evan's selfish he makes this girl fall in love with him only so he can get close enough to kill her. But he wants to sleep with her before he kills her, like that's not depressing for everyone involved. Annalisa loves this guy (killer) so much that she doesn't even care if he kills her. She is also rich so she could pay for someone to protect her and yet doesn't. It was all just unbelievable.
