I had a difficult time getting into this book. I found the main character to be annoying. There wasn't enough romance to keep me interested.

Gin is at a wedding reception and notices Josh in the parking lot. Changing. He notices her too. After a one night stand, she finds out she’s pregnant. Age is a big issue for her as she is 40 and Josh is 25. After telling him the big news, he doesn’t react the way she thinks he would. Turning down proposals is what she thinks is best as he just graduated from college and wants to see what the world has to offer. I liked this rom com a lot. Was a very enjoyable read.

Not the greatest read. I was getting tired of the “healthy eating” talk. And the circles around the plot. Not sure I’ll read the next book.

Like enemies to friends, I enjoy reading second-chance romances, or spring-autumn romances. This one is a 40 year old who has a fling with a 24 year old because she likes his butt. No really. She sees his butt when he is getting dressed in the parking lot, and is curious to see who it is attached to.
And of course she gets pregnant.
And the conflict is that this is a small town, and the young man, Josh, just graduated and wants to move on out into the big bad world. So Gin does what she thinks is best and lets him know about the pregnancy, but makes it quite clear she does not need him to stick around.
He is, of course, with all romances, the perfect guy, which makes it harder and harder to push him away.
Are ron-coms realistic? Who knows, and really should we care? The genre of romance does not have bad lovers, because that would be against everything that they have established. So we all know she and he are right for each other, even if they don't.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

It's a sweet and heartwarming romantic comedy that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. It's a feel-good kind of book that is a perfect read if you're feeling blue for any reason. Both the characters are cute in their own way. Ginny is seething over being dumped after her boyfriend cheat for who-know-how long. And Josh is working many jobs as he tries to find the one job he actually wants. He is much younger than Ginny and at a very different stage in his life. They are both looking for different things, but the fate has its own plans and no one can stand in its path. Now, here they are. Tied down by the "little bit" or LB, as they call it. What happens when they decide to spend more time together? Will they end up in love or hating each other? Find out in this sizzling hot rom-com.

This is a small town romance. I enjoyed reading romances about people in their 40's however I wish there was more character development and a little longer.

This is my honest review about Not Seeking Mr. Right. I did receive an E-arc of this book from the publisher.
What happens when a one night stand with a man who is 15 years younger than you goes the way you’d never expect it to? Well that’s what happens to Ginny and the man she met at a wedding after being dumped by her now ex-boyfriend. This story was engaging from the start and I enjoyed following along with all the trails they were both put through.
This story is definitely angst filled and I felt for both Ginny and Josh. I disliked how gossipy and closed minded the town was towards Ginny and Josh’s relationships and the constant insults thrown ginnys way just because she was older than josh and everyone assumed she was using him because her “biological clock was ticking”. Ginny did get a little bit on my nerves but at the same time I understood why she did what she did and didn’t expect anything from josh and always tried to keep him at arms length especially because of how much younger he was than her.
I loved Ginnys friends and how supportive they were of her and didn’t sugarcoat or baby her. They told her when she was being dumb and always had her back no matter what. I enjoyed how the story ended and cannot wait to see what is in store with the rest of this series!
