About this deal

or when i read this book, which i recalled as being cute and fluffy and one of the only romances i have ever given five stars, and lent to my mom. I love this series, and now that I’ve finished it I feel like it may become a comfort re-read. (In the very very distant future when my TBR list becomes manageable - hahahahahahaha). Her parents finally give her an ultimatum. She needs to venture out and find a job and live on her own or they will cut her off financially.

Standalone, full-length novel. A fake-relationship romance between a bisexual Scandinavian prince who’s into light domination and a fed-up British office worker who is also into that, as it turns out plays his fake fiancée. I was extremely excited to read this story because I love books with neurodiverse main characters. I'm really drawn to them, and I actively seek out romances with characters who are not neutrotypical. However, the intense chemistry and excellent writing is what made this story special. If you’re looking for a way to keep yourself entertained on your next drive, look no further! I’ve got a great selection for you of free audiobooks for road trips that will keep you hooked for the entire journey. Whether you’re looking for funny fiction or an engaging drama, you’ll find something for every mood …Both of these characters also carry baggage, but the story doesn't feel heavy. Talia Hibbert has a way of inserting just the right amount of humor into her stories, and I was reading this book with such a big smile on my face. The dialogue and banter between the two MCs were such a joy to read. I'm a dialogue junkie, and I love it when the author can carry a story through with witty conversation. Though the book touched on a number of serious topics, it didn't take itself too seriously. The story is so cute that the heat really sneaks up on you. Talia Hibbert pulls no punches when it comes to writing her sex scenes, and I love her for it. I'm talking scorching hot chemistry. There are no silly euphemisms for sex, just enthusiastic SEX. Yes, yes, yes! The Brown Sisters #3. A romantic comedy between a spoiled, chaotic angel who’s trying to prove herself and an uptight, sarcastic bed-and-breakfast owner who simply cannot stand her. Unfortunately, they have to work together because she breaks his arm by hitting him with her car. Oops.

Of course, this book also has the dreaded miscommunication trope, because why wouldn’t it? Just the icing on the cake that we needed! Why, I ask, why must so many romance novels do this??? I genuinely do not get it. To make matters worse, the one in this book could SO EASILY have been avoided had Jacob heard Eve out for more than 5 seconds. Act Your Age, Eve Brown was a charming tale of love, passion, self discovery and understanding. Although I initially struggled to empathise with Eve, as she lolled about resembling Peter Pan, I soon grew to love this messy, chaotic, loveable woman. As the book continued, misunderstood Eve showed that she was riddled with insecurities, self doubt and anxiety, but set off on a journey of finding out what she was good at, and why she found certain things difficult, and it was emotional. I loved seeing her self confidence grow, and she handled some discoveries about herself like a boss! Standalone, novella. Vaguely connected to The Roommate Risk, but, like, vaguely. A bodyguard romance between a radical political activist and the over-protective mechanic also known as her brother’s best friend. They eat a lot and shout at each other and then they kiss. I had ridiculously high expectations, after the first two books in the series. And happily, they were very much met. Eve and Jacob are both immensely lovable and charming main characters, and their relationship is the cutest. They are both so in tune with the other’s emotional needs (my favorite fantasy in romances), and their banter is fantastic. I’m neurotypical, so I can’t speak to the autism representation, but it seems to be handled with respect and kindness. Also, this book is so, so funny. I am pretty sure I woke up some neighbors with my middle of the night laughter. When she is thrown into the big world by her parents, Eve is sad. Caught up in her emotions, she drives farther than intended and comes upon a B&B.

Part 2: Plot Summary of Act Your Age, Eve Brown

And I'll also suply the information I was looking for while getting spoiled (and didn't find here). This is apparently part of some of the Act Your Age, Eve Brown editions, but you can also read it for free now: https://read.bookfunnel.com/read/duuc... Ravenswood #3. A small-town romance between a 40-year-old divorced novelist and a younger, demisexual bad boy. They share a real friendship and a fake relationship. Until it’s not fake at all. Again many thanks to Talia Hibbert for the lovely author's note at the start, it was appreciated! 😘Also thanks for another brilliantly diverse romance! I'm so happy we have been getting so many of these over the last couple of years, and really hope that we continue to get romance to represent all kinds of readers!

unless, and i can't stress this enough, you are thinking of book recommendations to give your poor, sweet, innocent mother.this was cute and fun and short and basically the literary equivalent of cotton candy (gone before you know it and not AS satisfying as you think it's going to be). Eve Brown has always struggled to finish what she starts—university, jobs, relationships. After her latest job-related disaster, her parents give her an ultimatum: They're cutting off their financial support until she can hold down a job. Furious and embarrassed at disappointing herself and her family again, Eve takes off in her car and ends up a few hours away in the Lake District. On a lark, she applies for a job as a cook at a bed-and-breakfast, but owner Jacob Wayne can just tell that Eve is too inexperienced and undisciplined for the job. When an unexpected accident leaves Jacob with no choice but to hire her, though, they're forced to work together to keep the bed-and-breakfast running. There isn’t much of a plot; instead, it’s all situational: How will these two people coexist despite their differences? Eve is caring but plagued by insecurities while Jacob is taciturn and methodical. Jacob, who has autism, helps Eve realize her own place on the spectrum. Eve’s journey to understanding her fears is sweet, and Jacob’s belief in her as a caring, capable adult is the stuff romance heroes are made of. Hibbert has a gift for writing truly funny dialogue and genuinely tender emotional moments. Full of heart and humor, this is a sexy, satisfying end to a beloved series. This place might be the start of wonderful things. It might mean stability, and Eve has her eyes on the prize. Jacob Thank you so much to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me an ARC in exchange for an honest review!
