Review

Two words – FREAKING HILARIOUS! What a great book!! I literally laughed my way through the whole thing. The banter is absolute perfection!

So first we have Grace who is a crazy, feisty, witty, 33 year old. And then there is 24 year old Super Sexy Jack Hamilton… celebrity, gorgeous, funny, sensational name, and he’s British with a hot accent. Score!

I love these characters, I wish they were real. Hell, I wish I was Grace and could have my very own Jack! They are both foul mouthed, smutty and sarcastic, with absolutely no shame. They have a love of all things 80s (repeated references to the Coreys and NKOTB) and they both have the sense of humour of 13 year old boys (“heh heh, you said nuts” – I think I laughed at that as much as they did!). Brilliant! And of course there’s the sizzling chemistry and wicked banter.

“He pushed me back up against the door, slamming me against the doorbell. I heard it ring out.
“Coming!” I heard Holly say as she clicked across the floor to the front door.
“Not quite, but she’s close.” He chuckled, removing his hand and leaving me breathless and rosy cheeked.”

I had been told that this was the dirty version of <i>Love Unscripted</i>, so I knew it was going to be smutty… I didn’t quite realise HOW smutty it was going to be. There was A LOT of sex in this book, and a lot of not-sex . In fact I can’t quite believe how much not-sex there was, and how descriptive it was. And then when there actually was sex. Wow!

“We have to stop, this is insane. I literally cannot handle anymore. I think I’ve lost brain function. I can actually feel myself becoming stupid”

“Not possible. Let’s test it. What’s two times two?”
“Orange?”

But there’s no bad guy, no crazy-ass psycho exes and no conflict, just the fun of watching this couple get together and fall in love. And best of all there were no games! They were both honest about what they wanted and how they felt. There was one moment where Grace got a bit stupid and insecure, but Jack was right there with her and wasted no time setting her straight. I loved that! It’s very refreshing after reading a long stream of books with the heroine never feeling worthy of her man.

The ending is a bit teary (not in a bad way), and I can’t wait to see what the sequel has in store for these two!
