Overall: 3/5 Stars
Summary of review: The 1st half of the book was wonderful. The
2nd half fell flat for me.
Summary:
After having to move back home, Layla is going
to start a new career. Her father, puts her on a dating on an online dating
website for the chance of her to marry. He even hand picks a few dates for her.
He also offers his upstairs of his restaurant for her new office. After a
mix-up, her father had rented the upstairs office to Sam. Now she has a long
list of suitors that she is seeing while sharing space with Sam in her office.
My thoughts:
I started to read this and thought that I was going to love it. But then the second half of the novel was not the same. I could not wait for it to be over. I read the author’s other book “The Dating Game” and loved it from start to finish. I just wish the same vibe in this story went through to the end.
Typically, you read a story and start to love the characters. I loved the main character but wanted to see her evolve and change. Sam’s character, I just did not care for at all. He seemed too corporate/harsh and not the right match for Layla.
Overall, a good rom-com for anyone wanting a light and fun read. It was not my favorite rom-com though.
