Loving Romeo
by Laura Pavlov
I have had this book on my tbr for while. I finally had some time to sit and read it over the weekend.
I really enjoyed Demi and Romeo! Was it an enemies to lovers romance? I would say yes but throw in a bit of insta-love.
Romeo and Demi grew up differently. Romeo was known to be a bit rough around the edges while Demi was the town "princess". I loved the banter between Demi and Romeo when he was in her coffee shop to pick up drinks for his mom and sister. The moment Demi steps into his gym to ask for personal training for self defense Romeo instantly goes on guard to protect her. These two have forces working to push them together even though Romeo had always looked at her as the "enemy".
I loved how their relationship naturally flowed from "enemies" to friends and then lovers. I LOVED Romeos friend group! I loved how they bantered with each other and opened their arms to Demi. We can't forget "beefcake" he had some of the best moments in this book!
I was not really expecting all the family drama but I was here for it! I love a good book that has some family drama in it or suspense. I am so glad Demi held her ground with her father.
I can't wait for River's book next!
Some favorite quotes:
“I know! Our town slogan should be Magnolia Falls, where everyone knows your name and your business.”
“From now on, you can call me Beefcake.”
“I’d like to take some self-defense lessons. I wanted to see if you had anyone here at the gym who could train me?” “Did someone fucking touch you?”
“Heart. Beefcake Heart. And I’m all heart, sir. You can even ask my uncles and my girl, Demi. They’ll tell you the truth.”
Like a bee to honey, in a sea of people, my gaze always found hers. Just a moment in time that said all I needed to know. She was right there in my corner. All that I needed.
