Wrecked Roommates SERIES REVIEW:
⭐️: 3/5
🌶️: 3.5/5
Format: 🎧 

I picked these books up on an audiobook bundle and I'm so glad I did, because I was in a reading slump, and these helped me get out. In terms of romance, they are HEA, fairly predictable, and definitely a comfort read. But the characters do go through really great development! While these are standalones, I do recommend reading them in order, because there will be little hints leading into the next book (or even future ones a couple ahead!). 

What I liked about this series was that the author really did a nice job with endearing you to the characters. Since each book led into the next, I found that by the end of each book, I was excited to get into the next couple. I also liked that there were some important plot points that helped drive the romance forward!

Really enjoyable, and quick to get through, especially on audiobook!
