A fun and short sexy read. It’s a smart and witty romance that fans of Curtis Sittenfeld’s Romantic Comedy would enjoy.
Despite being under 200 pages, the story doesn’t feel rushed or short at all. It gives just enough while still being able to build the tension and attraction between its two main characters: political strategist, Maya McPherson, and former boy band member, Charlie Blake. Speaking of which, I love there is a kind of subtle nostalgia or homage to girls who grew up loving boy bands in their formative years, especially in the 90’s. Proving that no matter where you are in life or how much time has passed, that band member you had a crush on could still bring back those harbored feelings you had as a fan — or in this case, and then some as an adult.
