I'm not really a contemporary romance reader. I read The Love Hypothesis because everyone was raving about it, and it was cute, but wasn't really my thing. I have heard nothing but good things about Check & Mate, and oh my god is it hilarious! I need to know more about why Mallory has given up chess, and if she's going to kick Nolan's butt again. I am absolutely enamored by this book and it was only a preview!
