Charming as Puck by Pippa Grant
5.0
We finally have Nick and Kami! Felicity's brother and her BFF!! This book is fun, goofy and hilarious all rolled into one Pippa Grant Romantic Comedy. I loved it so, so much!
The animals, the Berger twins, the pranking fun, this book is filled with so much fun and so much heart. I love when two people go on a journey that leads them to where they originally started, but in their own naive world they never saw themselves good enough or perhaps they actually weren't. However, during their journey together they help each other blossom into a better version of their former self because that is how the other person always saw them, the transformation is beautiful, especially when intermixed with farm animals and pranks.
"There's a note of self-deprecation in her voice that makes me want to hit something. Probably myself, because see again, I don't deserve her."
To begin, Nick and Kami have been friends for a long time, they actually went to high school together, although that is not when the friendship began. Nick didn't know Kami existed back in school, his single-minded focus on hockey has been something that has served him well in the rink, but not quite so well in the girlfriend department. Hence, his current situation where he finds himself with a cow in his apartment, (thanks to one Zeus Berger) and when he calls Kami, his friend with benefits, who also happens to be a veterinarian to help him out of his predicament, but forgets to add in one teeny-tiny detail before he ends his call...his single-minded life gets turned upside down.
"He called me first thing in the morning...to cuss about a cow and completely ignore my hints about what today is. I can't deny it any longer. He's a self-centered ass. He's always been an ass, and he'll always be an ass."
Kami is known as sweet, nice, loving and always willing to help out in a pinch when someone needs help, especially concerning an animal in need. It is how she has become the vet on call when the Thruster team uses a helpless animal in one of their pranks. When Nick calls her in a panic when another animal finds its way into the mix, Kami waits to see if Nick remembers to mention anything else while he's calling. Anything at all. Anything important. They have been seeing each other, soft of, for eight months and she knows they aren't exactly an item, per sae, but could he really have forgotten?
"The one person who's clearly missing is Nick. He wasn't playing dumb because he was coming to a surprise party...He forgot."
When Kami puts her foot down and decides she's more important than being forgotten, Nick finally wakes up and realizes he might lose the one person who actually understands him. The one person who knows him better than anyone and now he needs to turn that single-minded focus that has worked for hockey and pranks onto the girl who deserves it before he loses her forever.
This book is fantastic fun and I know you will enjoy it so make sure you add it to your list today!
