Christmas in Coconut Creek by Karissa Kinword
3.0
2,5 stars for this one.
The plot was great, the writing too, but the amount of nonsense was just too much at times and so annoying.
1) We have a 34-year-old man who has a roommate, the biggest walking red flag in my opinion.
2) The FMC’s best friend has a boyfriend but doesn’t tell about him to the FMC, what kind of friend does that? Then said friend gets engaged a few days later and everyone is shitting rainbows about it. It was so forced and unnecessary. They didn’t know each other so much, just sharing a p*rn account. But also, if this was my friend I wouldn’t be so thrilled about my bestie getting married to someone that she kept as a secret.
3) We are talking about grown-ass adults who start a friends-with-benefits relationship because “I need to teach you how a real man does it”, and once they catch feelings they aren’t able to communicate about said feelings. I expect a lack of communication in a teen couple, but not from a man nearly forty.
I also felt a little bit fooled about this because by the previews it seemed like there would be a lot more coincidences that put the MMCs together, but they found each other immediately and were forced together since the beginning.
Anyway, this is just my opinion, but I think the plot needed a bit more work than this.
