Trip  (shardsofromance) Just finished the first 5 chapters and I'm already loving this one so much! Carter is adorable and Rip is hot as heck, they have great chemistry even from just friendship. The dating show aspect is a lot of fun too I adored the Q&A round so much, it's so sweet and funny.

The restaurant is interesting and liked getting to know some of the other characters a bit more, liked getting some development and progress even if it's light. The slow burn feels here is awesome. Carter is my absolute fave at the moment though and I'm with him completely.

Now I did say 5 chapters but already could easily binge this one as its so good, i don't want to put it down xx

Agreed. Carter is too adorable for words.

I'm also really glad Mia is there as the voice of reason, asking for consent and checks that he's really cool with this. I feel bad for the little one, I mean, I know this will have a happy end, but I bet at some point he'll be kicking himself for agreeing to this?

Yep, those five chapters went by much too soon :D


Trip  (shardsofromance) Agreed Mia was a lovely voice of reason there and loved that she asked how Carter felt, since Rip and Cam were not exactly seeing his pov. The spaarkle and blush and lays obsessions, from Rips pint of view were adorable. Yeah I think so too now it's going to be difficult before reach happy end xx

Shall we go for another 5 😊


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
Yes please :D

And yes, the Lays obsession is cute. I love how he keeps hugging Carter. Oblivious idiot :D

Trip  (shardsofromance) I got a little carried away and finished chapter 11. It's just so addictive and easy to get into, I love the development and getting to know some of their history was adorable. Still loving the dating game parts, the date was so adorable and loved how fitting it was too them. Also their 'Acting ability' conversations, the limo rides are so perfect..

Im expecting the miscommunication to come though as be much to easy otherwise, and not ever halfway there yet. My love of Rip is growing with Carter, his just so relaxed and affectionate which is perfect. Carter and Rip compliment each other so much, I am literally in love with this story.

Trip  (shardsofromance) Well I've just finished ch 15 and I'm truly addicted to these two at this point, the relationship development and chemistry between them is just so hot. The top/bottom challenge is hilarious and just so perfect! I love Carter and Rip together so much, it's great seeing them learn more about the other and damn is it hot. Of course needed some drama and it's to be expected, although it's done in an interesting and damn shocking way.

I'm eager to continue so I'm probably end up binge the rest, but I'm keep track each 5 chapters and update so we can chat. I'd love to hear what you think too xx


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
Lol. I don't blame you. I'm still on chapter 8. I agree, they are really perfect together. Up to the point where you have to wonder why it took them so long :D

uhhhhh. Top/bottom challenge sounds interesting :D:D:D

Trip  (shardsofromance) Oh you have lots too look forward to, the dating game is one of my favourite things about this with all the different challenges. It surprised me as I thought that might be really ott and while it is its done in the best way so I really like it. I think I'm starting to enjoy reality shows and such in books, which is interesting because I don't much in actual TV. I agree they have such great hemistry it is surprising not realised before, well Carter had but Rip is rather oblivious at points.

It's awesome but I'm not giving any spoilers as so many amazing moments to enjoy, just brief over lay of it. This book is very soft, fluff and full of silly misunderstandings yet it's so fitting to these two and of course we know shall be HEA. Im just about to read the epilogue to finish and I'm so happy with Rip/Carter their feels are just so beautiful.

I really hate reality shows in real life. I would never watch one. But these two are just too cute.

I'm at that part where Rip goes all "test my acting abilities, why don't you" and it's just so. Them. <3 It's really good fluff :D

Trip  (shardsofromance) Yeah I'm with you!

Haha I thought so too, it's so soft and fluffy but damn you can't help but love them it's so good xx

Thanks for finally giving me a reason to boost it in my list to read... I was missing out 😂


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
Ha. You're welcome :D I also held off because. Well. Reality shows. But when I saw it was for free, I thought "why not". I'm so glad I did.

So I read the cherry challenge. Hilarious :D Totally OTT, but hey.


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
I just finished it, and Oh the cuteness. This was really really good fluff :D


Trip  (shardsofromance) I agree it was a perfect comfort read, so much soft feels xx


Andrea | 836 comments Mod
