Welcome to Litsy!

This had a lot of potential, with some lovely writing and a fun background of working in a television writers' room. But I got intensely bored with the endless sex scenes and could really have used seeing more of the characters falling in love -- especially since they have huge strikes against them. The relationship ultimately comes off as co-dependent, especially for the male main character, who gets less growth.

This book is like an onion in that it has many layers… it is sad, funny, self-deprecating, loving, and steamy! A true joy to read!

I have heard super good things about June‘s surprise book!

Wow! This book was spicy I haven‘t picked up a romance to read in awhile; and this was a good one. I went into it not know too much about what it was about other than an author‘s romance story. Her story was so emotional and captiviting that I stayed up late reading for the first time in forever I wouldv‘e loved the ending if there had been a bit more there. I felt like I got a lot of detail up until the end of the book.

Right book at the right time, I ADORED this one: sad, funny, and romantic. When I read it. When I listened to it…not so much. The hero is the nicest, sweetest guy but the male reader‘s voice was all wrong; made him sound like a creep, or a jerk.
I‘m so glad I read it before listening.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ This story‘s fine, but does not live up to the hype. The Author‘s Note is a content warning, but it was still far darker and more serious than anticipated. I thought it would be a small portion, but it totally drives the plot. I prefer my romances a bit lighter and funnier. I appreciated the characters more than the story. The tough subject matter was handled very well, though, especially concerning Grant‘s character. He was my favorite.

Pretty good. Very, very steamy. (Maybe a smidge TMI sometimes.) I wish there had been a bit less sex and bit more conversation as the characters got to know each other. I wanted more emotional build up.
