Hard Sell
by Lauren Layne
3.75 stars
After the first book, I was genuinely surprised by how much I liked Hard Sell. I'd seen this couple in the previous book, but I was still a little cautious approaching this book. There were a lot of things that could have turned me off it, but these didn't happen.
One of my favorite things about this book was the trope: enemies with benefits to lovers. Matt and Sabrina had such good chemistry, and they actually helped each other grow. I think that the fact that they had known each other for years made everything about this book more realistic and made me like them more. I usually hate endings like this, but I believed more, at least, because Matt and Sabrina had been involved somewhat for years.
That was my problem with this author's past couple of books, that everything progressed in approximately 3 months with little buildup. The hinting of the couple in books to come is something I've been waiting for since the Stiletto series and haven't really found in the author's last few standalones. Having realized this, I'm more excited for Kennedy and Kate's book!
Hard Sell was a hot read of a novel with fleshed out characters who help each other become better people, which is definitely a plus. The plot and the couple''s development easily intertwined, and the hero actually apologizes for his actions!! I'm eagerly anticipating the next book!
original review:
okay,,,,I really liked this one but although the ending makes more sense than when it happened in walk of shame, I still thought it was kinda fast…
