This was an amazing book! I laughed, and loved, and flipped those pages. Such a great story, and the characters are so real, it's like you are a part of the story, and only a wonderful storyteller can put you there. This is a sure fire hit.

I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Rian is just trying to live her best life. She works with her sister in real estate and dabbles with flipping houses. One day while grocery shopping a man stops her and tells her she owes him for hitting his car and fleeing the scene. Rian did not hit his car, her twin sister did. This man, Pierce is infuriating. He makes no qualms that he finds her attractive. She makes sure he knows she thinks he's an asshole, even if she thinks he's a good looking one.
Pierce doesn't need the money to fix his car, he's well off but its the principle of the thing. Also when he meets Rian he likes her, and he wants her. Having never seen her around the Hamptons before, its kismet that he keeps seeing her now. How can he convince her that he wants to actually get to know her and more than that?
They both feel the attraction. Rian though doesn't want to give into it, she doesn't date good looking, she's looking for more than attraction. Soon though, their relationship becomes more than just a fling, more than just casual sex. They start catching feelings, and then Rian has to come clean about her past.
I loved their banter, Rian isn't a shrinking violet that lets people walk all over her. A strong woman, she did blame herself for things beyond her control. Once she shared all of her secrets and knew Pierce's she didn't feel like she was less than, she didn't believe that she didn't deserve the love he was offering her. This book was fantastic! I did not read any of the other books in this series, but I didn't feel like I missed anything at all. I do hope we get to see Lawson's story, even if he is a jackass.

If you haven’t had the pleasure of reading a Helena Hunting novel, you need to stop what you are doing and download one STAT! And to think, I almost passed on reading Pucked because someone took issue with the gratuitous use of the word beaver and I worried that I would too. Not the case and since then, I’ve read everything I could get my hands on. Ms. Hunting’s books are such light, funny, easy reads and I enjoy them so much.
I Flipping Love You is book number three in the Shacking Up series. They are all stand alone but do yourself a favor and start with Shacking Up. You won’t be disappointed.
I managed to go into this book without reading any descriptions. All I knew is that this was about flipping (duh, the title) and that Amalie’s brother Pierce was one of the main characters. After Bane and Lex, I knew I was gonna fall in love with Pierce too.
Rian, who’s in real estate, and Pierce, a lawyer who’s side hustle is flipping houses with his younger brother, meet in the most awkward of situations. Despite the immediate fireworks, Rian shuts Pierce down because the cocky asshole is too tempting. After multiple run-ins, where Pierce grows on her like a barnacle, Rian submits and queue explosions.
Things are never as simple as we’d like and our lovebirds soon find themselves on competing ends of the flip market. Can business and pleasure remain separate when hearts are involved? Throw in the fact that Rian has some walls up a mile high to guard some mega secrets and you'll understand the obstacles these two face.
All in all, this was such a light-hearted read which I really needed. Glad I can count on Ms. Hunting to deliver!
Thank you to Netgalley and St. Martin's for the ARC.

This book was ok. It just didn’t seem to have as much substance as the other books in this series.

Go grab yourself a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, get into your favorite reading spot and be ready to flip over reading & loving this book!
From the first Chapter, you will be laughing out loud, totally drooling, and wishing you were Rian who has just met Pierce in the most outrageous way.
Rian is comical. She just brought a smile to my face while reading.
Pierce is everyones hot guy fantasy come to life in this book.
He is the full package and then some which has Rian in a totally tizzy.
Their chemistry was hot, sexy and super fun to read.
Go grab this book and start your summer off right.
Go One Click it!

Thanks Netgalley for a ARC copy to read and give my honest opinion.
Loved it....I smiled and laughed through this whole book, so if you need a charming and funny book this here fixer upper will make your day.
Rian Sutter (pronounced Ryan) is a numbers girl where her sister Marley is the out going one. As a dual team in the real estate business they sell houses in hopes that one day they can buy and flip their own.
Pierce is a patent lawyer vacationing in the Hamptons with his brother Lawson. After a mess up with his fathers company with a personal patent he has been hiding in the Hamptons on a much needed break flipping and buying houses with his brother. One look at Rian and he's a goner.
This is a charming and sweet romance set in the Hamptons. Rian and Pierce have crazy chemistry even though Rian fights it due to her parents scheming people out of money in the past and fleeing the country. Sins of the father type deal. I enjoyed it so much, it made me laugh and cry. Five huge stars of entertainment!
