My Secret Book Boyfriend by Kate Perry
3.5
My Secret Book Boyfriend was my first foray into Kate Perry's world, and let me tell you, it's a whirlwind of second chances, insta-love, and a dash of small-town chaos. Zoe and Andrew have known each other since childhood, so naturally, sparks fly when Andy returns to Rough and Ready (yes, that's the actual town name—not a rejected cowboy romance title). They strike up a mutual arrangement that practically screams, "This will end well!"
The chemistry between Zoe and Andrew is undeniable—like a chemistry experiment teetering on the edge of an explosion. However, I couldn't help but feel that these two, supposedly in their mid-30s, occasionally acted more like over-caffeinated college freshmen. It was a little distracting, but hey, who am I to judge? Maybe small-town air has anti-aging properties.
Despite some eye-roll-inducing moments (like the ever-convenient plot twists that only happen in romance novels and Hallmark movies), the story zipped along at a fun, fast pace. It's a delightful read if you're in the mood for a book equivalent of a rom-com binge: light, flirty, and just a smidge over the top. So, grab a cup of tea—or wine—and settle in.
