Reread. I think this would be for the 20’s-30’s set who like light, low drama romance. It’s short, so, not a long slow burn, but also one of the characters doesn’t wait around an eternity to tell the other how they feel. A light summer read.

Get ready to laugh!
As with all of Teagan’s stories, you will laugh. This is a really funny story of two people who were made for each other. It’s the perfect start to a new series with a great group of characters that I can’t wait to read about!
No angst, no drama, lots of steam and lots of laughs! You shouldn’t miss this one!

“You know exactly what I mean. When she sees it, she won’t be able to look away. Just give her time.”
⇢The Plot
Unfortunately, this book took the cliches too far for my taste. This was a brother’s best friend romance, right? So usually it takes a while for them to get together because they start out as indifferent towards each other or friends. But no, this book had to pull the “you’re in love with me but don’t know it” and the “let’s pretend” for the entire book until it just got old. I’m sorry but when you’re 90% into the book and still using that as an excuse, it just feels weird.
⇢The Romance
That being said, I guess Wren and Foster were somewhat cute? I guess I just didn’t particularly love them or hate them they were just okay. I feel like the next couples will be better but at the same time I don’t think I’m invested enough in these characters to continue.
“Because you and I, Wren—we’re bound to happen. Whether you want it or not, you have a piece of my heart, and I don’t want it back.”
⇢Wren and Foster
As characters, I honestly felt the same. They were pretty underdeveloped, and I would have loved to see flashbacks to when they had been friends in their childhoods. I think that could have set up the story in a much better way. The story was obviously set up as a brother’s best friend story, but Foster didn’t even seem to fit that role since he had left to live in California or wherever.

ARC was provided by Wildfire Marketing and Teagan Hunter, so thank you. All opinions are my own xx
This was a fun and lighthearted read, perfect for the upcoming summer months. The family Pizza business ‘Slice’ brought warm family relationships into the book. As the Dad, Brother and our protagonists Wren and Foster have all worked there. The friendships were heartwarming. So all together it created a lovely, enjoyable reading experience. I also read this during my stressful exam month. And this book gave me what I was looking for. An easy read.
I personally am more critical of contemporary books, because it takes a lot for me to absolutely love them. I did find a few grammatical errors so some bits didn’t make sense, but it wasn’t anything I couldn’t look past. So bearing that in mind I gave this book a three stars. One of the reasons was that the love interest Foster ‘complimented’ Wren he used the cliche of “you’re not just any girl”. I physically rolled me eyes when reading this. And in consequence of this I had a dislike towards Foster, which isn’t ideal when he is the love interest.
