Don’t
trust lust at first sight. One woman chooses
reality over fantasy in this friends-to-lovers romance.
Jacqueline: As an adult woman—and the
vice president of a marketing firm—I shouldn’t be waiting by my office window
to ogle the mystery man who jogs by every morning at 11:45. Sure, he’s a
gorgeous, perfect specimen of the human race, but I can’t bring myself to hit
on a total stranger. However, my best friend–slash–colleague Vince Carson
thinks I should do more than talk to the guy. In fact, he’s borderline
obsessive about “getting me laid.” (His words.) But the more time we spend
together, the more it’s clear: The one I’m falling for is Vince.
Vince: Jackie
Butler’s got it bad for some pompous, over-pumped A-hole who struts his stuff
past her window. That doesn’t bother me. I know she deserves nice things. What does bother
me is that she friend-zoned me big-time last year, so I can’t ask her out
myself. But what if I set her up with Mr. Steroids? Then, when he breaks her
heart, I can swoop in and save her like the nice guy I am. Everything’s going
according to plan . . . until we share a ridiculously epic kiss. And suddenly
anything is possible.
**4 Stars**
This was my first by Jessica Lemmon and I loved it. The
whole friends to lovers story gets me every time, but this one had a twist and
I loved every second of it. I was hooked from the very beginning and I didn't
want it to end. I couldn't put it down. I had to know what was going to happen,
I needed to know what was going to happen. I can say it was my first by Jessica
Lemmon and it won't be my last, that's for sure. It was light, funny and
everything I needed.
The story of friends to lovers, had a twist to it this time.
Jackie and Vince are also coworkers who say the role of VP at the company they
work for. They are both divorced, but have no idea that they are attracted to
each other. This makes it comical since Jackie has her eye on the mysterious
runner she sees weekly. Watching Jackie and Vince work through finally getting
together was cute. It was fun and you felt for them both. You feel the
confusion that is going on. You hurt for them both since you want to smack them
and be like "hello!" but overall, I loved their story. It was unique
to them. The plot twists were awesome and so not expected. I do wish Vince had
been a little more honest with Jackie at times, but then the story wouldn't be
what it was.
I can't wait for more from this series by Jessica Lemmon.
