Lola & Sam
There love story was awesome I really enjoyed this one.
I feel so sad for her and her mom though that broke my heart.
Adding a child in to this story really brought it to life for me.
Kristen & Rob
This fell so flat for me. I think they are more a dominant couple they should have had their own book.
And had a side couple that fit into their story better.
It's still a great read. But I was just ok with this part of the book.

Picked this up as a Kindle freebie (don't ask me why you would make book 5 a freebie and not book 1 - but go figure).
I would classify this as a classic rom-com - the sort of thing that Katherine Heigl or Sandra Bullock would star in (one of their good ones).
There were clear references in the book to couples who have starred in previous books, all the couples are loosely connected by living/working in Laurel Heights. However, I didn't feel that I needed to have read the preceding books to enjoy this one.
Lola is a romance writer. Sam is a radio sports presenter. She guests on his show and the sparks fly.
In a side story the barista in the local coffee shop is actually a retired CEO of one of the hottest IT consultancy businesses. She woke up and realised she wanted more from life than 80 hour days alone. She has fallen for a Hedge Fund something or another and wants him to be a sperm donor (and then decides she likes him too) but he feels she is an underachiever and is encouraging her to "find her direction".
It's fun and light-hearted. Well-written and frothy. I'll definitely be looking out for the books.

I keep reading this author in an attempt to like her, but it's just not for me. I'm throwing in the towel.
