This book was an interesting concept but it just dragged to me. 

 

The Rom-Commers

I know I say this about EVERY book, but how will I move on from this. Taylor Swift had teardrops on her guitar and I had teardrops on my book.

Emma Wheeler is an aspiring screenwriter. She lives, breathes, and obsesses over rom-coms. She’s always looking for the best on screen kisses and searching for the most swoon worthy lines. But as the full-time caretaker for her ailing father, her screenwriting career is more dream than reality. 

Charlie Yates is a successful screenwriter and he has the accolades to prove it. But Charlie can’t write a rom-com. In fact his most recent script, a rom-com, is so terrible it needs its own word.

Charlie doesn’t believe in love, not in movies and certainly not in real life. It’s up to Emma to make him believe that Hallmark didn’t make love up to sell cards.

Emma is so eldest daughter coded. From the way she is the sole caretaker of her dad, to the way she puts off all of her dreams, because she doesn’t believe the responsibility she has placed on her shoulders can be taken over from anyone else. But Charlie Yates never lets her carry that burden alone. Not even when he makes her wish she never met him.

 

The book was a short read. I liked the Ralphie didn’t care what people thought of Morgan. Honestly if you’re not asking for too much, you’re just asking the wrong person was a book it would be this one. 

The plot was twisting.

The fact that she was dating her ex-husband the whole time, but was so rude about the “rich friends his wild to me.

Let me start off by thanking Ellie Blackbourne for this arc. I am very grateful to have been selected. I liked the premise of this book. Fake dating for money 👀 it was a light read but there were characters I would have loved more backstory on. I would have also loved to hear more about Alexis’ fibromyalgia diagnosis and how it impacted her life. Overall the book was good. I Can Be The One is out now! ❤️

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Heavily relatable. If you don't relate to at least one, you're lying.

This book was good, but the way it stressed me out at the end earns it 3.5 stars. I enjoyed the romance and banter between Liam and Anna. At times the drama with Liam’s father was simply too annoying. Ray Westin could’ve stepped on a Lego (iykyk). 

Perfect for fans of
☀️Fake dating
☀️Marriage of convenience
☀️Opposites attract

Let me start off by saying that I may never move on from this book. I mean let's have a little commotion for the cover. Then the writing. Sarah Adams did that. The way I am in love with Will Griffin is ridiculous. 
The way he and Annie communicate with each other is like nothing I have ever seen on pages. Their relationship reminds me so much of this song. I think I really enjoyed the ending, it was happy without being that every lose end tied up HEA. Adams said "this one is for the softies. the tenderhearted sweeties. the introverts who are afraid to shine," and she meant that.
