The moment I got my hands on this book, I knew I was in trouble—in the best way. Helena Hunting gave us an awesome grumpy/sunshine romance with all the juicy bits: banter that bites, chemistry that sets the pages ablaze, and two people forced to play nice as they help prepare for a wedding as best man & maid of honor.
Essie is all sunshine, pink sparkles, and bachelorette-party spreadsheets. Nate? He’s moody, mouthy, and has emotional baggage stacked higher than the wedding cake. But the man broods like a pro, and let me tell you—I ate it up.
Nate & Essie are full of deliciousness. Every time these two got together, I was giddy. They set the pages ablaze—and whew I was a puddle. 😮💨 The way they play off each other? Juicy doesn’t even begin to cover it.
The banter between Nate and the guys? Chef’s kiss. Honestly, some of my favorite moments in the book. Their bromance had me grinning—peak ride-or-die energy. And Essie and her girls? Just as fierce. Supportive, hilarious, and full-on maid-of-honor magic. The way Essie pulled out all the stops to make Rix’s big day perfect? We should all be so lucky to have a bestie like that.
And don’t even get me started on the feelings—they poured out of this book like an open bar at a wedding. Nate and Essie brought the heat and the heart, but all my favorite characters from previous books came to play and they were the best #relationshipgoals
This book is messy, heartfelt, spicy, and full of that "OMG GIVE ME MORE" energy. I laughed. I swooned. I may have even screamed at my Kindle. If you love your romance with tension, steam, and emotional wreckage wrapped in a bridal bow, I Could Be Yours needs to be on your TBR immediately.
I was lucky to do a tandem read of this book and let me tell you Teddy Hamilton doing Nate’s grumpy growl + Savannah Peachwood giving us Essie’s sunshiney sass = pure ear candy. They brought every flirt, fight, and fiery stare to life—and I couldn't get enough of it! If I wasn't feral for Nate before, let me tell you, Teddy gave me shivers!
Thank you so very much @helenahunting and @netgalley for the ebook and audio of this book!
