The Real Deal
by Lauren Blakely
Full review on wildandwonderfulreads.com
I can always count on Lauren Blakely to write a great romance! The Real Deal is a sweet rom com that had me smiling and laughing and wishing I had a Theo of my own.
In my opinion, characters make or break romantic comedies. I want characters to be relatable with witty internal dialogue and flaws that make me feel like I’m not the only person on the planet with embarrassing stories and issues. I absolutely got what I wanted from this book! I loved-loved-loved April and Theo!
I thought the plot was fun! Fake relationships are one of my favorite literary tropes, and it was executed really well here. I also enjoyed the family dynamic in this one a lot. My only complaint is that I didn’t feel like the story was long enough — the ending seemed a bit rushed. Sometimes I need the tiniest bit more of the ‘happily ever after.’
Overall, The Real Deal is a definite recommend! This is a short, fast read and the perfect pick-me-up!
