The Boyfriend Project by Farrah Rochon

I enjoyed this quite a bit. It was fun, it was cute. But it did a thing that I personally dont like much in books and although it made sense under the context and I think the author did a great job, it just isn't my favorite thing. (will talk about in spoiler part of review). Overall I liked the characters and I think the friendship aspect of the book was really nice and the romance part was cute.

So I'm personally not a fan of romances where the characters keep really important stuff from each other. Its super common so I can usually get past it, but I still find it a little annoying regardless. I'm glad that in this case it actually made sense that he was keeping that information from her so its wasn't as annoying to me here as it is with other books. But I dunno, I just wanted that to not be the focus I guess..

I did feel like the romance was a little rushed but I didn't mind that too much.

This book was really cute. A little wordy but I really did like it. Modern day rom com. Could make a nice movie imo.

I enjoyed listening to this one! It had an amazing focus of friendship, and a great girl group that all started with a shitty event (a man three timing them all) which brought them together and helped them start an amazing friendship they never expected!! I liveeee for friendship groups like this 🫶🫶

Then comes the romance with Daniel, an undercover government agent, & Samiah, the tech hottie. These two were so fun & I enjoyed seeing their chemistry blossom! 

Overall a very cute romance that made me happy!

A strong premise, but the characters were a let down. Ultimately, the romantic relationship and the steamy scenes were not for me.

I received an ecopy of this through Netgalley; however, all opinions are my own.
