Sinopsis :
Drew Evans is a winner. Handsome and arrogant, he makes multimillion dollar business deals and seduces New York’s most beautiful women with just a smile. He has loyal friends and an indulgent family. So why has he been shuttered in his apartment for seven days, miserable and depressed?
He’ll tell you he has the flu.
But we all know that’s not really true.
Katherine Brooks is brilliant, beautiful and ambitious. She refuses to let anything - or anyone - derail her path to success. When Kate is hired as the new associate at Drew’s father’s investment banking firm, every aspect of the dashing playboy’s life is thrown into a tailspin. The professional competition she brings is unnerving, his attraction to her is distracting, his failure to entice her into his bed is exasperating.
Then, just when Drew is on the cusp of having everything he wants, his overblown confidence threatens to ruin it all. Will he be able untangle his feelings of lust and tenderness, frustration and fulfillment? Will he rise to the most important challenge of his life?
Can Drew Evans win at love?
Tangled is not your mother’s romance novel. It is an outrageous, passionate, witty narrative about a man who knows a lot about women…just not as much as he thinks he knows. As he tells his story, Drew learns the one thing he never wanted in life, is the only thing he can’t live without.

Review
First, before I start my review, this is the second time I post my review in English in my blog (the first is my review of Donners of the Dead). I kind of have a rule, that all book I read, whether its in Indonesian or English, I will always use Indonesian when write the review (I'm so annoyed when know that my Indonesia fellow always use term "Bahasa" when they refer to our languange). But, like you all see now, my blog is... well, I am become a slow blogger now and find that reviewing in Goodreads is easier than the blog. BUT, the biggest problem is.. I'm not sure I want to post my review in English here. My grammar is suck, my vocab is suck, well, I think my English is suck.
And then, I like "I don't care anymore!". This is kinda like I have some epiphany :P.
So, this review of Tangled is copied from my Goodreads review with some editing and I also add some parts. This review is for entertainment only. I did enjoy this book and mean no disrespect to the author. If you find any mistake in grammar and structure, please kindly email me at : sawamura_foxman AT yahoo DOT com , so I can correct it. :) . BTW, after I ask Chei, from Event Division of BBI, a book blogger community where I become part of it, she said Tangled can be categorized as humor book, so in my case, strikes two birds with one stone, hehehe (don't know the right terms :P)
Note: Contain some offensive words that quote directly from the book
“See, Drew, there are three kinds of males in this world: boys, guys,and men. Boys—like Billy—never grow up, never get serious. They only care about themselves, their music, their cars. Guys—like you—are all about numbers and variety. Like an assembly line, it’s just one one-night stand after another. Then there are men—like Matthew. They’re not perfect, but they appreciate women for more than their flexibility and mouth suction.”
