Love in Tandem by Becca Kinzer is one of the funniest, most endearing stories I’ve ever read. This book had me laughing so hard tears streamed down my face. I loved every single second of this delightful story, and I am genuinely sad my time with these characters is over. Charlotte is a wonderful heroine. She is sarcastic and silly and quirky. I love her dedication to her students, her school, her family, and her hometown. And I really appreciate how she chooses to see the best in every situation. Zach is the best kind of hero. He is strong and protective, but he also has a wonderful playful side that came out in spades in this story. I love how he pushes Charlotte out of her comfort zone when she needs it, but isn’t afraid to be a teddy bear when she needs a good hug and someone in her corner. I really loved the give-and-take relationship between Charlotte and Zach. They are a great partnership because they bring out the best in each other. And their chemistry…WOWZA! So good! I also really loved the various themes discussed in this story. My eBook is highlighted like crazy. Specifically, I love the discussion on faith — genuine faith vs. superficial faith. I won’t spoil anything, but there is a character who believes their faith is solid…and then that faith gets tested…and then this character realizes their faith isn’t as solid as they believed, which makes this character think that maybe they’re a fraud. This realization rocks this character’s world, but leads to some really awesome character growth and a great HEA. And I was there for every single second!

Love in Tandem is a must-read novel. I HIGHLY recommend this excellent, hilarious, heartwarming story. If you need a good belly laugh, if you want a read that will leave you smiling ear to ear, then this is definitely the book for you!

I received a copy of this novel in eBook form from the publisher, Tyndale House, via NetGalley, in order to review. In no way has this influenced my review. The opinions expressed in this review are my own.
