Love Unexpected by Jenny Proctor

Such a unique storyline! I liked this one and found it interesting even if I thought it was a bit far fetched. Also if I was the MMC, I would feel a bit betrayed by everyone I know?? Either way I thought this one was cute and fun and definitely a quick read, the period qualities of a romance.

I will say that I appreciated how unique it was and it wasn’t a plot that I had read before.

There was just too much deceit on Rosie’s part… she took way too long to tell him and then gets upset that he’s confused. But Isaac was kind of a self absorbed jerk. I dunno. I didn’t connect with either of these characters.

This one has everything I want in a closed door romance all packed into one. Lovable characters that are funny and relatable. I already really enjoyed Isaac from the first one but he continued to grow on me. Such a dynamic personality that just radiates good vibes.

As a introvert I definitely relate to Rosie’s struggle with social anxiety. But she’s so brave, taking the step to reach out to her crush. And I also really liked her relationship with Max is so sweet. My heart. That kid is to cute

I really enjoyed the trope of the secret identity romance and the fall out because of that. It’s beautifully written and I’m really looking forward to reading the other books in the series. Would definitely recommend this one if your into sweet romance

This was quite bad… I had to force myself to finish it so that I can see if I like any of the other books in the series.

I don’t think there are any aspects of this book that I liked… maybe that they drive through Asheville? I’ve always wanted to go there and the book really talks it up. But that was it!

The FMC is a stalker. I’m sorry but she is “in love” with a YouTuber she has never met and gets upset when he shares his whole life online… you can’t be in love with someone you’ve never met but feel like you have and then turn around and get upset with the person for over sharing.

I couldn’t stand the FMC and I’m honestly upset that the MMC didn’t leave her behind. The fact that them enjoying the same band is one of the top reasons they love each other pretty much sums up this book.

I would give this half a star if I could.
