ARC received for an honest review

I really was not sure what I was going to get when I picked up Four Letter Word. I have not previously read anything by J Daniels, so other than the blurb, I really was going in to this one blind!

But sometimes this is the best way to go into a book. I had no preconceived notions of the writing style or any other previous works.

And when I was finished I was pleasantly surprised.

I adored Sydney and Brian. From the very unconventional start to their friendship, their relationship developed rapidly but it did not feel rushed. So many things could have gone wrong with the way things started, but I was left very happy with the way things developed.

I was concerned that when they finally did meet up, things would feel fast, like they were insta-loving all over the place (I am soooo not a fan of insta-love), but I am glad to say that this is not how things felt at all.

There was just something about the attraction from the very first "wrong number dial" that felt right to me about this pair. I was their biggest cheerleader, frantically waving my pom poms from the sidelines, needing them to get things right.

But to find out if they did, you are going to have to read for yourself!!

The friendships between Sydney and her bestie Tori, and between Brian and his bestie Jamie are the kinds of relationships we should all strive for with our friends.

J Daniels had me run the gamut of emotions. I laughed, I cried, I got angry, I got sad. From one page to the next I was never sure what I would be feeling next.

Four Letter Word is a sweet, cute, sexy romance, and while it is not the most original story line (what really is these days though?), but the story that we are told kept me interested from the first page to the last, and romance lovers young and old will enjoy it.

Can't wait to see where we go next.
