Mixed Up is a standalone contemporary romance by Emma Hart. I read, and really enjoyed Being Brooke, another one of Emma's contemporary romances. I thought Being Brooke was hilarious and I was really looking forward to seeing if Mixed Up was as sassy and fun as Being Brooke. Sometimes for me, the true test of an author is to read two or three different standalones or series, and see if I enjoy all of them. If I do, the author beings part of my auto buy or auto interest. And I am very happy to say, that I really enjoyed Mixed Up. Even more than I enjoyed Being Brooke, in fact.

Mixed Up is an enemies to more trope, and I loved it. I noticed something very interesting after reading Mixed Up. I think I have a new found thing for books featuring chefs. My last 5 star read was The Opposite of You by Rachel Higginson, and that book was also an enemies to more read featuring two chefs. I loved it so much, and I highly recommend you check it out if you have not yet. But I loved Mixed Up too. I love the banter and sass in the Enemies trope. And sass is something Emma Hart does fantastically well. This was a really fun read. 

I loved the two main characters, Raven and Parker. Raven owns her own bar, where she is a mixologist. I loved this aspect of Raven's personality. The names she came up with for the drinks she created totally cracked me up. Parker is an accomplished chef. They are basically forced together when Raven decides she has to expand her bar into having a full menu to stay competitive. Insert Parker and things get a whole lot more interesting. These two were explosive together. They were explosive as enemies and explosive as more. I loved it. I am completely addicted to Raven and Parker. I want more of them! Seriously, I want a whole other book about them!



Bottom line: If you are like me and you really enjoy the bantering in a enemies to more story, you will completely love Mixed Up by Emma Hart. It is a fantastic read with great characters, off the charts chemistry and sass and extremely fun writing. I became addicted to this story and I think you will too. Mixed Up is perfect for fans of sexy and sassy romances. Raven and Parker sizzle off the the page. Mixed Up was a great read for me.
