3.5⭐️ for me! Sarah Adams writes such sweet books. This one I was focused a little too much on the physical for my taste, but for many people it would hardly be an issue. Fun to have Noah and Amelia so heavily involved!! Great character development, too. And GEEEEEZ is Will a master at communication and consent. WE LOVE TO SEE IT. I look forward to the next book! There was definitely major foreshadowing into who the next story will be about which is exciting 😊

For some reason, I'm a person who tends to prefer the sequels over the first installments. I read this book back to back with When in Rome and found myself much more attached to Annie and Will than Amelia and Noah.

Shy and introverted Annie has her heart set on finding her other half. Thanks to small-town talk, she begins to fear her quiet reputation has her out of luck in the dating department. She enlists her friend Amelia's bodyguard Will to help her come out of her shell.

I'm not usually a fan of plots where the 'good girl' has to become someone she isn't just to find 'love' but it worked for me more here than usual. Will's personality has a great contrast with Annie's. They fit well together as the narrators.

Like When in Rome, this book has quite a few references to Audrey Hepburn, albeit, not quite as many as the first. The film of focus this time around is Funny Face. If you've seen the film, you can see some of the similarities between Annie and Jo Stockton. I'm curious to see if this theme continues should the series go on.

“It seems to me, Annie, that you are just waiting for someone to give you permission to be yourself out loud.”

There is no secret that Sarah Adams is one of my favorite romance authors, and I've been waiting impatiently for Practice Makes Perfect to be published ever since I first heard about it. I loved the first book When In Rome last year, and I've looking forward to Annie and Will's story. I have to say that it didn't disappoint! Rome, Kentucky, makes for the perfect small town setting, and I loved being able to return and spend more time with its cast of characters. Annie and Will are both such great characters, and their story is basically your typical opposites attract romance. As usual, the romance itself is on the sweet side, although there is some sexy time involved as well. Somehow I didn't mind those scenes though, because I was too busy rooting for them by that time. There were some moments in the plot that were a tad frustrating, but as a whole I liked what Practice Makes Perfect brings to the table and the elements it offered besides the romance angle. I definitely can't wait to see what the next book set in this small town is going to be about! I'm keeping my fingers crossed it will involve James.

I was provided an eARC by the publisher via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own… yes I know I’m very late. Oops.

Annie is seen by everyone as the sweet, innocent friend that would never swear and needs to be protected at all costs. The youngest child, she never knew her parents like her siblings did. So, to not add to their pain Annie hid her feelings and put on a happy smile. She played the part of the innocent little sister and was even called “Angel Annie” by her sisters.

When Annie has yet another disastrous date, this time witnessed by none other than Will Griffin— the sexy, bad boy bodyguard of her soon-to-be sister-in-law. Amelia sets the two up, suggesting Will can tutor Annie through her awkwardness on dates. The two have an instant chemistry— but Annie wants to marry, and Will doesn’t believe in love. Slowly, these seemingly polar opposites tear down the others walls and realize they have more in common than meets the eye.

Man I wish I picked this up sooner. I swear Annie Walker is ME. I need a Will Griffin in my life, for real.

Read if you like:
• Sarah Adams books
• romance reads
• small town romance
• good girl/bad boy trope
• “fake” dating trope (kinda?)
• Audrey Hepburn

A cute, fluffy romance in the author's usual style. Some sexual tension but no smut.

Enjoyed this more than the first book in the series. More chemistry and stronger character development.
