Oh man, that was so good and so funny! I adore Elle Kennedy's writing style and it was so nice to see Hannah and Garrett again!

Ryder is dreamy and it was nice getting to see him work through his trauma.

My first Elle Kennedy Book and I was NOT disappointed. 

I loved it. It’s a slow burner at first but around 35-40% in it gets sooo good. I couldn’t put it down. I had the best time with the Briar crew! So many likeable characters and a few not so, but they mostly grow on you. 
The main characters are Gigi and Ryder. 
(I believe if you have read the off campus series by Elle Gigi is one for the children from the main characters of that. Off campus 2nd gen! I have no yet but definitely will)

I am in love with Ryder I also love Gigi. Watching their romance grow. It was charming, delightful and beautiful. 

So good! 

“Always. You fall, I will pick you up. Always.”

Elle Kennedy's latest installment in the series, a seamless continuation of the captivating love story between Hannah and Graham from "The Deal," is nothing short of perfection. Entitled "The Graham Effect," this book not only lives up to its predecessor but surpasses expectations, delivering a delightful blend of humor, emotion, and character development.

What sets "The Graham Effect" apart is its ability to evoke a range of emotions. Elle Kennedy masterfully balances humor and heartfelt moments, creating a narrative that had me laughing out loud at one moment and wiping away tears in the next. The emotional depth adds a layer of authenticity to the characters, making them relatable and endearing.

The character development throughout the story is another commendable aspect. Watching both characters evolve is a rewarding experience. But my heart really goes out to Ryder. Kennedy doesn't shy away from exploring the vulnerabilities and growth of her characters, allowing readers to connect with them on a profound level. It's refreshing to witness protagonists who feel like real people with flaws, dreams, and insecurities.

In conclusion, "The Graham Effect" is a must-read for fans of Elle Kennedy and anyone who enjoyed the delightful romance in "The Deal." This book not only lives up to its predecessor but elevates the story to new heights. With its humor, heart, and memorable characters, "The Graham Effect" is a true gem in contemporary romance literature. And just like the other stories from this series, I couldn’t put this book down. Prepare to be captivated once again by the magic of one of the Graham's love stories.
