All of my LJ Shen experience has been with more angsty hero and heroines thus far, so this comedic lead story was a nice change of pace. Enemies to lovers may be my favorite trope and add in some forced proximity and miscommunication and you’ve got a nice little package.
Tennessee’s relationship with her family is almost too toxic to get through, but the end result is positive while not necessarily being overtly lovey dovey and doing away with all past wrongdoings.
Was a great story to start my year off with!

I loved the idea, and a part from the annoying and childish fact that Tennessee avoids swearing when she is talking to adults and her son is not present, I liked her character. The only problem was that I didn't feel emotionally involved. I found the book too long compared to what happens, in my opinion, and this slows the rhythm down. Also, Cruz's been crushing on Tennesse since forever and yet I couldn't empathize at all, since his thoughts and feelings reflects a very cold character. The ending was cute, but nothing special :(
Love that floats
A sweet little southern girl with hair and makeup to rile Fran The Nanny! Messy Nessy is the girl that never grew up, even though she got knocked up in high school the flame for her teen crush never went out. True Cruz had to fan it a little, but it was always there. A short and sweet treat

RomCom, enemies to lovers. I thought there was good character development.
Tennessee is annoying... absolutely annoying. I guess that's how she was supposed to come across on the audio and perhaps in my head, if I would have read it, she'd come across differently but... I was so frustrated with her. Then the entitled women were even more annoying. All of it was just so ughhh... I wanted to love it but I was annoyed.
Has an author you swear you know by heart ever thrown you an absolute curveball? Because that's what LJ Shen did with this book. And I'm kind of floored.

I seriously thought this was gonna suck but it was literally one of the best books could've ever read I almost one sitting it was amazing. It was basically about the girl who got in high school and this guy is going in the town and I literally just couldn't stop reading it probably was a little insane but I loved it I spent all of my day so far today reading it so it was pretty good and surprisingly enough I actually read it again it's not like definitely never again kind of thing if that makes sense
