It was fun! (  ) Donnela | Apr 30, 2024 |  ) bschweiger | Feb 4, 2024 | This is a complete puff piece of a book. Beautiful, smart, successful people who meet cute and fall madly in love while eating a lot of junk food and having a ton of sex. There's some slight depth thrown in from time to time about racial issues (she's black and he's white) and old family drama with her sister plus he's a pediatric surgeon so there are some brushes with sick children but really 99% of this is them being hot for each other. Which is pretty much fine by me in my current headspace. Excellent beach book, airplane book, "having a bad day need to zone out" book. I don't think it's trying to be anything else and it succeeds at what it is. ( ) hmonkeyreads | Jan 25, 2024 |  ) Maydacat | Jan 9, 2024 | keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Alexa and Drew meet when they get stuck in an elevator together. They fall into bed together at the first opportunity, enjoy each other's company and all the sex, and start travelling back and forth between L.A. and Berkeley on the weekends. However, Alexa finds out from a bevy of Drew's exes that he's a great guy to date but that he runs shy every time committment looms. So Alexa, in love with Drew, runs first in order that she not get hurt. Will they find their way back to one another?
It wasn't a bad story for what it was, but as I say, I'm tired of romantic novels and want to read something else, and this story suffered under my wishes for meatier novels. (
