Crush on You by Amelia Wilde
4.0
This is a warm smooch of a tale about how first, second and sometimes even third impressions aren't always correct. I'd describe it as the perfect 'pick me up' book. Its both a book you should pick up, to read, and a heart warming tale that will pick your spirits up and leave you with that feel-good factor.
Crush on you, is a funny, gentle, smoking hot, romantic comedy and is everything you didn't know you needed. It has two of the most adorable, yet sexy, characters in Roman and Jenny. This is a couple you just won't be able to get enough of.
At school Jenny was the awkward geeky girl, the one who had to teach herself how to fit in. Roman was the hot guy everyone wanted to notice them, and he's not grown any less hot with age. Let's just say he wasn't quite the arrogant player that Jenny remembered from her high school days. In fact both main characters were incredibly easy to like and are part of what made this a truly great read.
Whilst I want to describe this as quite a 'sweet' romance, that's because of how it made me feel rather than 'heat' levels. This has plenty of hot bedroom (and waterfall, and elsewhere) scenes. The pace was perfect, quick enough to completely hold my attention throughout but not so fast that I ever got lost. The moment I dipped my toes into this book I was just buoyed along on a journey of love, secrets, mistakes and laughter.
I really, really enjoyed this book and I'm sure you will too.
