Hé bien voilà une romance toute légère, fun, romantique et sexy qui remplit parfaitement sa mission !
Bon ok, l'histoire de base est ultra cliché, on a toutes déjà lu une ou plusieurs fois ces histoires de petite sœur du meilleur ami, dont le héros tombe irrémédiablement amoureux, meilleur ami auprès duquel il a juré de ne jamais toucher à elle, blablabla. Il accepte de lui donner des "leçons de séduction", oui, ça aussi c'est cliché, déjà vu et j'en passe. Il "l'éduque" pour qu'elle en séduise un autre, ça aussi, c'est archi vu et revu.
Cependant, le couple Nick/Harper est adorable et fonctionne très bien. Il y a une jolie électricité dans l'air lorsqu'ils sont réunis, et le fait d'avoir un récit au POV intégralement masculin est toujours quelque chose que j'apprécie beaucoup.
Nick est un héros craquant, sexy (forcément) et je dois dire que j'ai apprécié son sens de l"humour, son côté un peu geek est également le genre de détails qui me fait fondre (genre, son obsession pour les crayons d'une certaine marque, sa manie de tout le temps dessiner, ce genre de choses quoi). Harper est pleine de vie, a un métier original (elle est magicienne !), je l'ai trouvé rigolote, fraîche et sympa comme tout.
Une romance sexy donc, une lecture légère qui donne la pêche et qui fait du bien !

Story of Harper Holiday and Nick Hammer
I really enjoyed this book.
I started reading Lauren’s books in her new releases and love her writing style, so I have gone back to the beginning of her back list.
This book was very whitty, had me laughing out loud a few times. Loved their relationship development!
Highly recommend this one.

Stayed up way too late reading this guilty pleasure. I picked it cause of the name and it captured me with its humor and sweetness. Such a fun, sexy, romantic book...start to finish in a few hours. Enjoyed every minute. I loved that it was all from the man's POV...he was a charming leading man.
Have you ever wondered what happened to the geek from art class? You know the one who sat in the back of class and spent more time day doodling instead of dating? Do you think he died a lonely existence with just his thoughts and his...hand drawings to keep him company?
What if that geek instead became famous drawing a comic strip, one where the hero satisfied hundreds, no, thousands of women? Yes, that very geek is the famous Mister O.
Nick Hammer has the perfect job. He is Mister O, technically he draws the comic strip turned animated TV short revolving around the incredible Mister O's life, but that is just a minor detail. Yes, Nick Hammer, is living the perfect life.
Well, it was perfect right up until the moment his best friend's sister, Harper Holiday, asked him for a no strings attached, teach her how to have a fling, let her hair down affair.
Uh, no problem. Right?
One teeny, tiny, giant problem. When did Harper suddenly become insanely hot?
I loved this story told entirely from Nick's POV. A man who thinks his life is fantastic, and let's face it, on paper it is, if you ask just about any warm blooded male, but when Nick meets a woman who finally gets his creative juices flowing...could it be the end of Mister O?
The story is funny, endearing and one to add to your must reads.

[b:Mister O|27856826|Mister O|Lauren Blakely|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1457581918s/27856826.jpg|47844681] by [a:Lauren Blakely|6860216|Lauren Blakely|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1451275317p2/6860216.jpg] was a pleasant surprise. I was roaming around Goodreads and happened upon an ad for this book. I read that there was humor and romance and I decided to give it a try.
I really liked it. I was glad I was home so people wouldnt see me smiling at my kindle (lol) like a weirdo. But I really like this book. I liked the characters and the playful banter it provided. It was different than other books I have read. I usually read historical romance or paranormal romance books. But I liked the change in style.

I snorted and lusted my way through this book. The awesome innuendos, the ridiculous jokes, and the overall coolness of Mister O is enough to drive any girl/woman to squirmy thighs.
You don't have to have read Big Rock but it makes it fun connecting characters. I had an absolute blast.
Hot filthy thoughts, phrases, and situations will give you plenty of smiles because if there is one thing Mister O does it's giving...

Totally loved Mister O. Nick and Harper so totally perfect together. Steamy hot love scenes. Love the friends to lovers scenario just as much as "love at first sight" scenario. I like the male POV, for some reason I was wishing this book had some of Harper's viewpoint too. I would recommend all of Lauren's books. I really like how characters from other series show up in new stuff with a connection.
