Laugh out loud funny
As always brilliantly funny. I don't want to say too much, as I don't want to spoil it. Just read it, you won't regret it!

It was a fun contemporary romance that dealt with revenge porn. A serious subject, it wasn’t taken lightly, but the book had a lot of funny moments.

If you have read Fluffy you will already be acquainted with Perky aka Persephone. Five years ago she was humiliated because of a meme that was made about her. She always thought it was her then boyfriend Parker. Since then she has hated him. But when she bumps into him again at her best friends’ rehearsal dinner the spark is still there and it ignites something deep inside.
I like Perky, she’s funny, stubborn and doesn’t care what people think about her. Parker, well I can definitely see the attraction. The two together even with their past, is like it is meant to be.
If you like rom coms that make you laugh out loud then you will love this.

I've been anxiously waiting for this book since I read Fluffy, and it doesn't disappoint. Perky is over the top, absolutely hilarious, and totally swoon-worthy. Parker and Persephone are lovable, both separate and together, and the story is lighthearted and fun. Once again, the secondary characters are just as much fun as our romantic couple, and we get tons of witty banter between this group. This one is everything I want in a romantic comedy and then some, and I can't wait to see what's next for the crazy bunch of friends.

This book just goes around and around and AROUND in circles. The whole story could've been told in about 50 pages

Honestly, I keep asking myself why in the world I waited to read a book by Julia Kent. This one is my 2nd, and it might even be better than the first one! The number of times I stopped to post an update on Goodreads as I was reading because I wanted to remember a line or something that happened was silly. Usually I only update my Goodreads status when I've stopped reading the book for a while because I'm having to go do something else. But one night while I was reading in bed, I kept disturbing my dogs to reach over and grab my phone to update with another hilarious example from the book. This book was laugh out loud from beginning to end. Even the sexy steamy scenes had funny bits, making me want my own Parker!
The characters are hilarious, and the connection between our couple is perfect. I honestly don't have any issues I can think of with the book. It was just all good. In fact I would have sat and read from the very first page to the last page in one sitting if I didn't have to do life things like eat, sleep, go to work, celebrate my stepmom's birthday, babysit my niece and nephew, etc.
Now, here are a few of the things I had to stop and make a status update on Goodreads because they made me laugh so hard. There was a reference to Dolores Umbrage from Harry Potter when describing Parker's mom, and that came from Perky's parents! Mallory, who we met in book 1, Fluffy, has a thing about how tacos are supposed to be eaten. And when someone did something she didn't like, she said that "he didn't respect the taco". To that one of the group said it sounded like a complaint after a one stand with a date from Tinder. The sex toy factory worker parts were hilarious. And then, there is Raul who works at the coffee shop with Perky. He gets some of the best lines. I also now have learned about a brown starfish, and I might be traumatized for life. LOL!!!
Once again at the end, like in the first book, we got an epilogue, or stinger as the author calls it, letting us get ready for how the next book will start. While these are all standalones, the characters are all parts of the stories, and you will want to read all of them, in any order, but just read them all!

Another great romantic comedy from Julie Kent. Soo amazing. Enjoyed reading every second. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.
