Synopsis courtesy of Goodreads

Julie Greene loves flings. Loves steamy first dates, sizzling first kisses, and every now and then, that first sexy romp between the sheets. Comfy pants, sleepy Sundays, movie nights on the couch? Shudder. But when Julie gets assigned the hardest story of her career—a first-person account of that magical shift between dating and “I do”—she’ll need a man brave enough to give a total commitment-phobe a chance at more.

Normally, Mitchell Forbes would be exactly that man. A devastatingly hot workaholic who tends to stay in relationships for far too long, he should be the perfect subject for Julie’s “research.” But what Julie doesn’t know is that Mitchell is looking to cut loose for once in his life. And the leggy journalist notorious for avoiding love is exactly the type of no-strings fling he’s looking for. In other words, Mitchell is the polar opposite of what Julie needs right now. And, at the same time, he’s exactly what she wants.
 

Review
That was a cute story. It had a very How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days feel to it, so that was always in the back of my head. But it was still fast-paced and fun. It wasn’t a super-deep emotional story or romance, but not every story has to be.

I definitely appreciate the groundwork for female friendship. And I am eager to read the next book in the series which is Grace’s book.

Thanks for reading!
Holly
