You know when you recommend a book to a friend, and you're worried that you're setting such high expectations that the book can't possibly live up to it? I was gifted this novel by a good friend for my birthday, and I knew that I would like it but I wasn't sure if maybe she had built up my expectations too high. Spoiler alert, she absolutely did not.

This was exactly the quintessential feel-good, contemporary romance that my heart craves. The characters were sweet and I was invested in them by the second chapter. The situation may have been pretty out there and unrealistic, but the relationship itself between the two characters wasn't, even if maybe it had a bit of an out there start. And while it jumps right in to the story and the relationship between the characters the real heart of the relationship and the intimacy are a perfect slow-build tension, with a very satisfying payoff!

This novel was sweet, heartwarming, and passionate, and even in between the moments of genuine laughter I had a huge smile spreading across my face. If you need a quick read and a classic romance, I would highly recommend this one!
(Now, if you'll excuse me, I am going to go read everything that Christina and Lauren have written.)
