This was a short, speedy read that I quite enjoyed. The heroine was hilarious, and I quite liked that neither of the main character's was so stubborn to stick to their main plans when presented with better, more desirable options. The prose isn't the greatest, but I am willing to overlook in the the name of a cute story and fun characters.

I really don’t get the one night and you’re in love theme in this series. I went ahead and read it because I had it checked out, but good gravy. This woman can write well. The churning out of flat characters and steamy scenes went one bore (autocorrect is probably right, even though I meant one note) after two books with that same trope. I skimmed half of this. It’s a shame because it had so much potential. It reads like a sketch.

This is another super short one but is educated better than book 1 in the series. I believe them and their actions whole heartedly. These books are raunchy and fun and I really like them.

I wasn't that impressed with this story. Not a lot of detail went into why the characters were the way they were, and Sarah's Drama Queen antics got old in spots. Chris' attitude also was problematic, because I did not find it logical that he'd be that bitter over his girlfriend dumping him for someone else. I felt there had to be more to his misanthropy! Thankfully, it was a quick read, but a less than enjoyable one.

Sarah, a school teacher and part time librarian needs to learn how to ride a bike in 3 days. She plans to charm her co-worker, Ulysses on the teacher/school staff bike retreat. Her only option is to convince Chris, a grouchy bike shop owner to teach her. He wants nothing to do with a bossy and opinionated woman.

Sarah and Chris play off each other well from their first meeting. She tells him what she thinks and he gives her the same in return. Are they exactly what the other needs?

I really liked this story. It was full of humor and real feelings. It leaves you with a happy feeling.

I received a copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.

Sarah is a librarian, 32 and ready to find love. She knows she is a drama queen and her previous boyfriends/dates thought she was too much. So she decides to pursue her colleague as he is as extrovert as herself.
A bike ride organized by her work is the ideal setting to make her move, but Sarah has never learned to ride a bike.

Enter Chris, who has opened a bike repair shop in their quiet town, and is willing to teach Sarah to ride a bike in just 3 days.
Sarah and Chris are opposites but insanely attracted to each other. Is he the man for Sarah?

Enjoyable and well written romance. A couple of hot moments. It was just a bit fast (couple of days..) but somehow totally believable!
