romanticread 's review for:

Hissy Fit by Lani Lynn Vale
4.0

The blurb is such that I wasn't sure what I was going to get so when it landed on my e-reader I opened it up just to see.  And didn't put it down until I was done!  I loved goofy, sweet, fun Raleigh.  From the very first page (and the subsequent awkward encounter with Ezra) I wanted to be bestest, life-long friends with her.  Klutzy, funny, and awkward, Raleigh will win your heart and you'll be cheering when she finally gets her guy.  

I will saw there were a few times that I wanted to smack Ezra on the head.  He's either totally clueless or a bit of an *ss because he let another women get a little too handsy with him.  More than once after starting a relationship with Raleigh.  I get that maybe he didn't realize the signals that Raleigh might be picking up but after the first time it made her huffy I would have thought that he'd get a clue.  Outside of that, though, I found him to be a pretty good guy.  He takes care of the guys on his team and his family.  And wants he sees Raleigh he's ready to take on anything she needs him to.  

While this is a more light-hearted book overall, it isn't afraid to tackle some harsher topics when it needs to.  This is only the second book by Vale that I've read, but it's not going to be my last.  (Lord Have Mercy, the next book in this series, is out soon and I'm already trying to figure out how to get my hands on it!)
