_book_topia_'s review against another edition

This was a weird one. It was a cute story but the way it was written felt quite amateur? I’m not even sure that’s the right way to describe it. But that’s the best way I can. It didn’t have a huge amount of depth maybe that’s what it was?
Ava has been in love with Parker since she was a teenager. Parker is her Uncles best friend and is a bit older than her ( it’s not a huge age gap, something like five years - I can’t remember!!) One drunken night she kisses him and he rejects her, only to find that years later he is to become her shopping monitor, as per her uncles request.
Parker is into Ava, and he spends a lot of the time trying to get her on board after she wants nothing to do with him because she’s embarrassed about the kids years ago. There’s some fun banter and Parker is very sweet, especially when he thinks that Ava is dating a guy that used to be desperately trying to date her when she was a teen.
It’s a cute filler read for anyone that likes no drama or angst, but it felt severely lacking for me which is why it only gets a 2 star. Maybe if there had been more if their relationship when Ava was younger I’d have felt more if a connection to the characters. But as it was I felt thrown into the story with no feeling of their past chemistry.

Quick read. Slightly repetitive. Multiple spicy scenes, but not as many as I thought there would be. No plot. No conflict between main characters.
Page count could be shorter. Some unnecessary scenes.
Glad I just borrowed through the library.

Good Quick Read
The chemistry between Ava and Parker was electric! The storyline was funny. Overall I enjoyed the book and would recommend it. I just wish it was a little longer.
