Absolutely adorable little romance

I‘m choosing this one for my June #ReadOrDonate book. My daughter will be reading it as well.

#ClearMyShelves

After getting fired Jasmine has one year of gardening leave to figure out her life among other things. Matt, her neighbour is in kind of a similar situation and decides to come home drunk every night. They strike a unique friendship all this while which helps them move ahead in their lives.
Feel-good, quick paced, simple characters, and a sweet story overall. The cover is just really cute and was the reason I picked the book
4/5🌟

Thanks to these Litsy folks for today‘s prompt:

TODAY‘S PROMPT: BIG SECRET

Andrew has a really big secret from his past.

So I hate-read the rest of it. This was DIRE.

Terrible characters making even worse decisions. Completely non-believable situations. Zero character growth, something that is essential in a young-adult series that ends in adulthood. No introspection. And for a series that bills itself a “romance“, having the final getting-together part take place completely off-screen was ... certainly a choice.

I think this is going to be a bail. It‘s not bad, but it leans really heavily on a pet peeve of mine, which is when characters who were once close reunite after several years and interact like they were never apart. I also really dislike Julia Whelan‘s dopey male character voice, so I‘m just more annoyed than anything. This is the rare book that might be better in print for me.

So cute! After a failed one night stand, Alexis, a shy school librarian, enters into a fake dating agreement with Texas gubernatorial candidate Logan, when a suggestive photo of them ends up online. I really liked both characters, and rooted for them!
