Once Smitten, Twice Shy by Chloe Liese

4.0

This book will make you fall in love with falling in love. 

Oh, goodness, the "practice" flirting was so hot. And the "practice" dating that wasn't really practice, I have no words. These were the kinds of dates that everyone should experience at least once, along with that slow delicious slide into falling in love (if you're into that kind of thing). 

Juliet's spirit for adventure drew Will out of his shell, so he was more willing to expose himself, all for her. And Juliet was willing to risk her heart again, for him. Will was so endearing and sweet. Their reasons for pretending it wasn't real were flimsy, really, but they abandoned that way of thinking fairly quickly. Their first encounter was deliciously hot and that chemistry kept humming beneath the surface all throughout. 

The story was all about Juliet and Will falling in love and helping each other overcome their insecurities. I can highly recommend it if you like steamy romance that is heavily character driven. Each book in this series stands well on its own. 

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with a copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
