The True Love Experiment
The True Love Experiment - Christina Lauren
my review : ✮✮✮✮✮
If you are a romance reader, don't even bother with my review. Just get your cute butt into your car, beeline to your nearest bookstore or library and grab this baby.
This book reads like a love letter to romance novels and those who create and enjoy them. I was left over the moon happy as if this love story had happened to me! Which is quite simply why I love romance novels. I was consumed by butterflies and first-date anticipation reading this. Can you believe this is Christina Lauren's 30th book!? I always loved getting lost in their sexy and fun stories, but this book felt different. I am no literary critic, but their writing was better than ever. The banter was funnier than they've ever written, the spicy scenes were more delicious, and the whole big fat book was just… heart eyes romance perfection.
This love story is about Fizzy Chen & Connor Prince. Fizzy is a romance novelist who's recently hit a wall with her writing. While normally she's churning out swoony romance novels and dating the eligible men of San Diego, we find her at a point in her life where it feels like she's hit a wall when it comes to her writing and dating life. Connor is a serious documentary filmmaker forced to produce his first-ever reality dating show as the studio he works for needs a cash cow, and Connor needs the job to stay close to his daughter. When Connor meets Fizzy by chance, he is struck by inspiration- wouldn't the world love to watch their favorite romance novelist fall in love? (Answer: yes, we loved watching her fall in love!)
I think I made the synopsis sound really cheesy, but honestly, this story is fresh and funny.
This book is sexy, funny, and just downright delightful. I honestly cannot wait to see what Christina Lauren writes next.
I don't consider this book a B.R.A.D. as it's plot-driven vs. "when's the next time they're gonna bang" driven, but it is hot, sexy, with open-door scenes. Christina Lauren got their start writing BRADs, so we are in expert hands when it comes to the steamy stuff.
you’ll love this book if you love:
