I have to say, Mason Deaver has done a fantastic job with their first adult romance book. I can't be more pleased with the writing, the pacing, and the chapters being titled after some really great movies. I'm ashamed to say that I haven't watched all of them, which I absolutely need to do. (Especially with some of them being true classics like When Harry Met Sally and Monty Python and the Holy Grail.)
I adore Peter Park with all of my heart. Like yeah, his first impression was one of the worst things I've ever read, but the redemption in this book makes him rank extremely high on my book boyfriend list. Now, I don't think Eli Francis deserves all the credit for his ranking, but wow, he does a damn good job.
Speaking of Eli, I adore him. He's probably my favorite Mason Deaver character (don't tell Ben De Backer I said that). Eli is such a fun character, who loves movies, his friends and family, and has so much passion for his journalism work. I see a lot of myself in him, which is maybe the reason why I love him so much, but I can't help it.
And to make my last comment as safe-for-work as possible, I thought the book's more explicit scene was some of the best I've ever read in an adult romance book. That's probably a crazy sentence to say in a review, but I needed it to be said with my full chest. I had to turn off my iPad and take a moment after finishing the chapter. Beyond impressed.
Thank you, Avon, for the digital ARC of The Build-a-Boyfriend Project!
