Meh. Average. I kept reading to see what happened, but the writing was really not great. I won't be reading another book by her.
Honestly, the whole friends with benefits and her denying her feelings like a child denying the fact that their father left, frustrated me beyond belief.
Might be the meds, who knows.
Was so fucking excited for this release but was a little disappointed. It just wasn't fully what I was expecting.
Gonna say though, fucking LOOOVED max and Sophie's chemistry. Exquisite shit
This book was everything I expected and hoped it would be.
I loved the main and side characters, I like the basic plot and I loved the banter between the two main characters.
Were there issues with some of it, did I dislike the conflict, of course, however, even with that, I loved the book. Such a fun, engaging read.
(3.5 stars)
I mean this in the best way when I say this book is 90% banter. It's funny, easy-to-read, and I had an absolute blast. Foul-mouthed, octogenarian roommates. Cute non-date dates. Quick and witty conversations.
The blurb is a little misleading. Midway through the book it turns more towards a fake dating trope than a friends-with-benefits trope (which I still love, don't get me wrong). The climax at the end is a little weak but I wasn't bored.
It doesn't have a whole lot of depth but it is a very very fun, and not at all mentally taxing. A great option for a nice palate cleanser romcom between more involved books.

i was hooked from the very beginning and it only got better! the chemistry. the banter. THE SPICE. it's a solid 5 all around from me. i wasn't sure about the whole ‘professional wedding objector' thing at first but it was so fun! the chaos of it all was kind of everything
