Thanks Netgalley for a free book to read and review.
Sadly this has been in my TBR pile since earlier this year, and that's a shame since it was really good. I enjoyed a few of the Marriage books this Author also put out and all these books are uniquely contemporary romance.
Kennedy is the female lead in this book, although she's stunningly gorgeous now, her high school "Fat" years still haunt her. What she went through in high school was horrible abuse from the other kids, and a lot of bullying. She watches everything she eats to find a happy medium between her mind and her weight. She is a matchmaker who owns a business with three of her friends, to help people find love. Which puzzles me because isn't it hard to find something when you've never experienced it?
Then comes NERD, or Ned/Nate for short. Aerospace engineer aka Rocket Scientist. I'm sure this author had a good time making up some of those pickup lines. Nate was endearing and openly honest which was so damn fun. The speed dating and mixers were never prepared for someone like Nate. Even the beauty makeover was hilarious.
Well sparks fly......
Scene from book between three women.....(Kate, Kennedy, and)
" Kennedy has a crisis. She slept with Nate Dunkle."
A coughing fit mixed with a gulp of surprise.
"The rocket scientist."
"Aerospace engineer," Kennedy corrected.
"Yes. Him."
"Once? Twice?"
"About fifteen times over last weekend."(Kennedy)
"Bitch," Kate murmured," you need a rest, not an intervention."
This story was cute, fun, and extremely romantic. Overall I gave it four stars. I would definitely read from this author again.
