A review by jamietherebelliousreader
Fumbled by Alexa Martin

3.0

3 stars. Martin has definitely improved in her writing since book one and thank God she dropped the cringy hashtags. And while I absolutely loved the heroine, Poppy, the hero, TK, was not it for me. He was an asshole with a capital ass. There were hints as to why he was the way that he was but it gets revealed way too late and I still don’t think it justified anything that he had done. Therefore the romance didn’t work for me unfortunately because I spent half the time wanting to push him off of a cliff.

But, like I said Poppy was awesome and she makes this book. She’s so likable. She’s witty and loving but definitely knows how to hold her own. And her son, Ace, was adorable and I loved their bond. It was super cute.

I appreciate that there was no big dramatic third act blow out breakup between Poppy and TK and that they handled everything like adults. That was refreshing. I really did want to like their relationship but the way he would act and respond to things made that impossible for me. It was still a fun read because the heroine is so charming but as a romance it misses the mark.
