5 Smooches!
Synopsis
What do ice cream and Sadie Montgomery have in common? They’re both ice cold, but one taste is never enough.
I wanted to be friends — I would have even settled for her seeing me as anything but a nerd — but there was no getting through. So just like any hard-headed, red-blooded man out there, I made up my mind.
I’d make my coworker fall for me.
I’d like to say it was simple, but like every other epic love story, all it took was one drunken night and a lot of naked courage to get the girl. For a moment, at least.
Love with a coworker is never simple, especially since Sadie’s trying to keep us on the low. Not to mention her persistent ex-boyfriend who won’t leave her alone. But I’ve never been good at giving up, and I don’t plan to start now.
The whole thing is a recipe for a rocky road, but I plan to eat the whole gallon, no matter how bad the brain freeze.
Review
I love Meghan Quinn’s books. Every single one I’ve read has never failed to entertain me while keeping a smile on my face. This author’s sense of humor just ticks off all my boxes, and the way that she so effortlessly builds it into her sweet and sexy romantic stories is what true romantic comedies are all about.
“He is the most ridiculous man I have ever met. Adorably ridiculous.”
So, when I read the blurb for Co-Wrecker, I was instantly all in. I mean, hello! Hot nerd! From Meghan Quinn?? Oh yes, I’ll take that right now, thank you. It was everything I’d hoped it would be. The humor was hilarious and multifaceted, shifting between slap-sticky type moments to witty sarcasm effortlessly. The love story was complex, and while this was a light read, this couple, the heroine particularly, had some serious things to overcome on their way to happily ever after, and this is what Meghan Quinn does so well. She’s stealthy, sneaking in a deep, moving and hard-won love story within the pages of a light, breezy humor heavy story. It was unexpected, and the feels Co-Wrecker invoked in me often took me by surprise in the very best of ways.
“He’s a four-leaf clover in a field of weeds; you don’t let men like him slip through your fingers.”
Andrew was a dream guy, point blank. The guy was perfect with his glasses and his quirks. Kind, patient, sweet and romantic, but don’t you be fooled, good ol’ Andrew could be forceful and dominant when he needed to be. Sadie had the weight of the world on her overburdened shoulders. Mired so deep within her own life’s tragedies, failures and mistakes, she nearly missed out on the love of a lifetime.
Co-Wrecker was so much more than just a simple romantic comedy. There was real and genuine love that needed to be fought for in the midst of all the witty banter, seriously steamy sex and moments of hilarity. I loved this book so, so much. Meghan Quinn’s Co-Wrecker gets five smooches from me!
