After a really terrible week in reality, all I wanted to do was escape into a good book. But picking one was a challenge all of its own. I kept switching back and forth between wanting something dark and angsty or something light and fluffy. I even pulled up a heap of options and a random number generator before I decided I needed something happy. And that always describes a Lauren Blakely novel.

 

First thing I want to say is I was expecting a laugh out loud room com with a heap of steam. I wasn't expecting all the feels. From the start I really connected with Trina and watching her figure herself out and overcome her own self-doubts was great. I loved her quirky, book obsessed self and seeing her get there was perfect.

 

Now the whole two guy thing. I didn't expect them to have such complex and understandable issues. They were so open and mature and communicated beautifully even when they were communicating their mistakes. And yes, the steam factor was through the roof.

 

I really enjoyed this book, and it was the perfect escape from reality. I don't know that I'm going to race out and read the next one but I'm definitely adding it to my TBR for those days I need something steamy and all consuming.
