The Best Book Boyfriend by Holly June Smith
2.75
slow-paced
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
I wanted to like this book so much since I'm in love with Holly June Smith's other books... but it just didn't do it for me. 

Bad:
  • I don't like Kara at all - her friends and Luke are her only redeeming qualities. 
  • I can understand her heartbreak, but if I had a friend being that flakey and wishy-washy in her decisions to a Luke-type-dude (a year after Adam leaves her) I'd hold an intervention. 
  • I also really disliked how Kara and Luke's losses kept getting compared when they are not in the same ballpark. 
  • The big sex scene from her birthday seemed forced. I'm all for roleplay, but as a first time after they DON'T COMMUNICATE AT ALL - it made me uncomfortable.
Good:
  • Okay... and the first spicey scene was amazing. 
  • Luke is nice - and also feral.
