Maybe This Time by Kasie West
2.0
2.5
I'm afraid I've hit my first Kasie West dud. The concept is the most ambitious of her romantic comedies I've read so far and I'll give it props for that but Maybe This Time's romance didn't work for me. I found Sophie's relationship and issues with her family and her best friend to be the real heart of this story despite getting lesser focus. The book was more entertaining as a character study than anything else.
Sophie and Andrew's relationship started off as too antagonistic and the transition from hate to love didn't convince me. I could buy them as friends but not romance.
And sorry, every time Andrew's father appeared I was reminded of a certain celebrity chef known for his anger and it threw me completely out of the story.
Maybe next time, Kasie.
