Synopsis
An office attraction becomes something more when they’re off the clock in this delightful romantic comedy by the USA Today bestselling author of Not the Girl You Marry.
State attorney Bridget Nolan is successful in all aspects of her life–except romance. After breaking up with her longtime boyfriend, she’s been slow to reenter the dating scene. To be honest, she has more important things to do like putting bad guys behind bars. But with her brother’s wedding right around the corner, she suddenly needs a date and fast. Lucky for Bridget, the legal intern is almost done with his program.
Matt Kido is dumbstruck by Bridget–total love at first sight–but there’s one problem. She’s totally off-limits while she’s his boss. But the moment he no longer reports to her, Matt asks her on a date. An impulsive decision takes them to Las Vegas where, as the saying goes, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas.
Unless you put a ring on it.
Review
Not that Kind of Guy is my second book by Andie J. Christopher, and while I did like this better than Not the Girl You Marry, I didn’t love it. The idea was good a drunk marriage, fake relationships, that sounds great to me, but something was missing.
I just didn’t really get why these characters fell for each other. They both were into each other, but I didn’t see anything in the story as to why. There was no building up. Yes, they worked together for three months but that was glossed over and it seemed like they barely spoke to each other.
Don’t get me wrong Bridget and Matt were both very likable characters. I just think that part of reading romance is reading about two characters falling in love. And that didn’t happen here. They were just suddenly in love. I had high hopes for this book and I was disappointed that it was just fine.
