I've only read a few books by Mandi Beck, but I did like how she writes. Hers was the first story I looked for in this Anthology.
I liked how this involves twins that are opposite as they can be but are best friends nonetheless. I really like reading stories that has siblings and that they love them to bits. One good thing I liked about anthologies are that they are short and sweet. It's like those bite size chocolates. It quelches your cravings yet not too bad for you compared that of the full size. With just a few chapters, ttthis story offered all the components of what I liked in a romance novel without having to spend hours. There's angst, jealousy, groveling, a little heartache and just the right amount of sexy time and romance. And because it has to be short and sweet. It focuses mainly on the plot instead of having to fill it with so much sexy times.
II haven't really read a full novel from Sara Ney. The last I remembered reading from her was from the first Team Player. I remember liking that one so why not give her a chance for this one?
I'm a little torn between liking or not liking the plotlline for this. I was initially intrigued on how this will play out. But I kind of felt that the characters were trying hard a little too much. I really didn't feel that Hannah was a little too sassy or that she mostly repel men with the way she talks. I mean, just the choice of words alone doesn't really strike me as sassy or rude. I didn't see anything wrong with it and would only realize that it was meant too be "repelling" when the characters, point it out. I feel that it was a little forced. But overlooking that part, I was able to still enjoy the story as a whole. It was a light read. A little laugh and not too much drama..
I had a phase where I binged read Meghan Quinn's LOL novel so I know I would like the way she writes.
I liked that the story just happened in a span of a day, yet it was pretty much an enjoyable read. I like how the characters interact with each other as well as the supporting characters. And for the first time, a guy who likes to look at pretty girls but doesn't really sleep around. It gets tiring somehow where a guy likes to sleep around, meets the heroine and somehow he is converted. I know it can still happen but it's kind of refreshing to meet someone who respects girls in general. Seeing that I was only a few chapters left, yet the end doesn't seem to be making an appearance should've been a big red flag that something isn't right. Apparently, this would've been some sort of introduction for Holt. Now this makes me want to read the other books in the series.
