jamielouisereads 's review for:
The Buy-In
by Emma St. Clair
I was provided an ARC copy by the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Ok, so I ate this book up, I laughed out loud quite a few times and that's how I measure a good romcom because it can be difficult to get that out loud reaction from someone when they're reading and to accomplish it, that's a good author.
Second chance isn't usually my favourite trope but when it's done well it can be so good. This was definitely done well, there's no dragged out miscommunication it's just 2 people who made a mistake and their journey back to each other. Pat & Lindy are so great together, but they have some obsticles to overcome and that's mainly to do with themselves. Pat is an ex football player with ADHD that's known for flaking and making impulsive decisions but he's also so funny with his golden retriever energy, but that isn't what Lindy needs, she needs stability as she's currently raising her niece.
- second chance
- forced proximity
- marriage of convenience
- no cheating
- slow burn
- HEA
- No spice but also no fade to black
