My Review:
Quirky, Scrumptious, and Full of Honey
This was a laugh-out-loud, adorable but still sexy novella. I am seriously craving a mocha nougat fondant. And thanks to Paul I'm on board for some gourmet junk food. Seriously y'all this should totally be a new food group. I mean, ramen noodles....blended with the coconut filling of a Mounds Bar? Freakin' Genius!
Yeah, so first off this book made me hungry. Too bad Cami's yoga passion didn't rub off on me too. I need it after recreating some of the recipes. But, I digress. Cami and Paul are a hoot. They are fun and both full of quirks that will make you chuckle. They are so made for each other. And the passion is hot and totally believable.
I've read a lot of novella's recently and really enjoy them. Sometimes it's nice to be able to sit and read a complete story from start to finish without any interruptions and this novella allows that to happen. You won't feel short changed just because it's shorter either. There is great character development and chemistry to fill your romance needs.
Top 5 Quirky Faves:
1. Tater Tots
2. Gourmet Junk Food
3. "This was a way better ride" Paul referring to paddleboard yoga (or Cami?) over mountain biking.
4. Paddleboard yoga
5. Storing certain "items" in the fridge (This just made me think George Castanza "I was in the pool!")
(No worries, the fridge doesn't technically cause this to occur......but it could!)
So go read Eat, Play, Lust, enjoy it, laugh, and then get hungry!

ReplyDeleteIt is a really fun read. Hope you enjoy ;)
DeleteThis novella sounds great. Sometimes I find the character development can be lacking in short stories because there isn't enough time to get to know the characters & believe their relationship, so it sounds good that you thought the development was strong in this one.
ReplyDeleteOh and I love your new header design!!! :)
