My rating:
Blurb:Ready to Fall is a standalone friends-to-lovers small town romance.
Tall, dark, and handsome is an understatement when it comes to John Day. With rugged good looks, his ever present plaid shirt, and a dog named Babe, John is a modern alpha male lumberjack.
After his favorite neighbor rents out her beach cabin for the winter, John finds himself playing tour guide to Diane Watson, a beautiful brunette with her own messy past and recent battle scars.
Will he be ready to fall in love? Or will he go back to his old, flirty ways?
Hold onto your heart as John Day tells his story in this male POV contemporary adult romance/romantic comedy.
Ready to Fall is the first novel in the Wingmen series of standalone, lighthearted small town romances set in the Pacific Northwest. Each book can be read without having read the previous titles.
DNF @51% — So, I started this one and it immediately came across really dry for me. I just wasn’t captured by the voice of John at all. Basically I was underwhelmed. I also wasn’t super hot about the whole other woman thing at the beginning, but I kept pushing on. There were some interesting moments here and there, but I got to this point and I asked myself why I was still reading. I mean sure, it’s not an awful book. It might even have been a 3 star. But I was bored, and I decided I had too many other books to read to keep investing in this one. *shrugs* (Also, while I like these new covers, I really loved the previous ones…that guys eyes were hot)
I have this one 3.5 stars. I completely understand why you DNF it. I thought it was really underwhelming and John was so bland. I needed more drama or something.
I’m surprised you got to 51 % before DNF’ing it. Thats a lot of time for the book to redeem itself.
