An emotional roller coaster, but; hang on, its one hell of a ride!!! This well-balanced story takes you through sad parts, funny parts, as well as some steamy parts. The dual point of view of Jenny and Aiden, allows you to follow along with the story and reading how people can interpret situations differently.

The character building is a 5/5 even characters that are not the main characters or have least amount of exposure are described in a way that you can actually picture them in person, all the way down to their personalities.

The writing and plot are also a 5/5 from descriptions of characters and environments, you can actually feel like you were there. A page turner, making it hard to put down because you or at least I wanted to know what was happening next.

The spice 2.5/5 The sexual tension was definitely felt, but very little action. Do not get me wrong it was perfect for the story. And honestly who would not want an Aiden to treat them like he treated Jenny (in the love department ;)).

Humor 5/5 OMG I do not think I laughed so hard that if i was drinking or eating it would have been spit across the room! Let's just say that thanksgiving scene!

Cry Factor I am going to say 1/5. yes, tears were brought to my eyes, but it was more of I felt how Jenny felt but it was definitely not a bawling.

It is overall a good read and definitely a funny romance story.

The comedic element of this book was brilliant. It had me laughing out loud the hole time. The miscommunication trope played a massive part in this book but I don’t think it was executed as well as it could have been. The on and off again between the love interests was annoying at times and the miscommunication was painful and not in a good way. However, the characters and their humour is the reason I have this 3 stars instead of 2.
