Book of the Month by Jennifer Probst
3.5
funny hopeful medium-paced
Loveable characters: Yes


I always enjoy books involving books and this one is Aspen, a writer with writers block, goes to the Outer Banks to stay with her sister for inspiration. Aspen needs a heartbreak for inspiration and focus on the town bad boy, Brick. 

I really Brick as a character and how he resisted Aspen and to me it was weird how aggressive Aspen was in the beginning. They strike up a deal that benefits both of them and really start enjoying each other's company and falls for each other. 

I thought the side characters added a lot of humor to the story. The one part of the story I found odd is the women that formed a support group for dating and scorned by Brick. This was just a bit far fetched and petty for me. 

Overall, a fun story that has a happy ending and I can feel the next story between Aspen's sister and Brick's best friend and I am excited for it. 

Thank you @getredpr @1001darknights_blueboxpress for a copy of the book.
