⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Loved this – laughed out loud the entire time I was reading!
I LOVED this book! Fairly certain my neighbors thought I was a bit nuts. I was laughing out loud hysterically every few minutes while reading this sitting out on my front porch. It was so incredibly funny – from the way we read what she’s thinking, to what pops out of her mouth, to the ridiculous situations she finds herself in. I seriously adored this book! Audrey has moved to Warren and owns a clothing shop where she specializes in repurposing vintage dresses. One of her customers decides to set her up on a date with her son, who just happens to be the Governor of New York. What ensues is just hilarious fun. I loved how Audrey was clearly charming and adorable, with absolutely no filter, but had no sense of just how awesome she is. Warren is the epitome of a silent, grumpy and gorgeous hero. I believe this is Jana Aston’s first release in two years and it was so worth the wait.
I received an Advance Reader Copy of this book and have voluntarily left an honest review.
Excerpt:
How many chances does a girl get to kiss her crush? Not many, if any. This is a prime kiss opportunity. A kissortunity. Also, he smells good. And he’s right here. If I just leaned forward we’d be kissing and I wouldn’t have to spend the rest of my life wondering what it would be like to kiss him. And he’s clearly not going to take the lead.
So I do it. I lean in, my fingers gripping the edge of his desk so I don’t topple into his lap, much as I might enjoy that, my head tilted just a fraction to the right, and press my lips against his. He doesn’t move, save for the small intake of breath the moment before my lips touched his, the moment it was clear I was about to do what I’m doing. He’s perfectly still. And his lips are perfect.
And.
That’s it.
“Huh,” I say, leaning back, a bit disappointed to be honest.
“What was that?” He’s staring at me, a bit of confusion clouding his expression.
“It was a kiss. But it wasn’t how I imagined it.”
“You imagined kissing me?” Warren looks like he’s a few steps behind on this entire exchange. He also looks mildly offended by my review of said kiss. “You surprised me,” he adds, his tongue sweeping his lower lip.
“I’m a surprising girl, it’s true,” I agree, but I’m looking anywhere but at him. Good Lord, did I really just kiss him? I did. And it wasn’t even worth it. It was kinda weird. Obviously awkward. And now I have to walk-of-shame out of the governor’s office. To the guest bedroom. Though it was just a kiss, so my exit will be closer to a slither of mortification than a full walk. So, at least there’s that.
“You’re too young.”
“For kissing?” My eyes fly back to his. “I’m twenty-seven,” I clarify. Then I make it weird by adding, “Gov.” Why am I like this? Seriously, why? And why did I push my luck and kiss him?
Stupid, stupid kissortunity. I’m gonna take my cat and go home.
“You’re entirely inappropriate for me.”
“Mmm-hmm,” I murmur in agreement, already starting the slide off his desk, trying to recall where I last saw Gary.
“We’re hardly compatible.”
“Right,” I agree because ‘inappropriate’ and ‘incompatible’ are words I’m very familiar with. He should be adding It’s not me, it’s you, any second now. I’m on my feet now, eyeing the door.
“Wait.” He stands, effectively trapping me between him and the desk a moment before I can escape. “You surprised me,” he repeats.
“So you said,” I quip.
“Caught me off guard,” he adds, as if the meaning of ‘surprised’ is unclear. Our eyes catch and a flicker of uncertainty or apprehension crosses his face before he mutters, “Fuck it,” and then he’s cupping my jaw with his hand and lowering his lips to mine.
And.
And…
This kiss is exactly how I imagined it.
