Hard Sell
by Lauren Layne
Enemies-to-lovers romances are my favorite. Lauren Layne is one of my favorite authors. I had high expectations for this book for those two reasons. I was NOT disappointed!!
The tension between Matt and Sabrina and their history of hooking up while managing to "hate" each other made for some excellent reading and, frankly, I couldn't put the book down once I started. The slow build for them from frenemies and sometime lovers to more was perfectly written. Watching them discover who they thought they were and what they thought they wanted to understanding that they shared a lot of the same hopes and dreams and how perfectly matched they actually were was heartwarming and a little bit fun. Even though that journey was made up of some not so happy baggage leftover from growing up with parents who weren't exactly great examples of living and loving the right way, it was the journey that made their relationship so worthwhile.
Lauren Layne is fantastic at character and world building and every time I read a new book of hers I find myself caught up in the worlds that she creates, longing for the friendships she weaves and not wanting to move on and/or wait for the next installment. Alas, that is what I find myself doing every time. Longing for more.
