Accidents Make the Heart Grow Fonder by Tara Mills
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Goodreads Synopsis:
Sabrina Eckhart is losing it. Oasis, the restaurant she manages, is getting battered by a trendy newcomer, and with everyone looking to her for ideas, you could say she's under a little pressure. But wait, that's not all. Her evil landlady has given her until the end of the month to vacate her crummy apartment. And her thirtieth birthday is looming, reminding her of the milestones she's missed. No wonder she's distracted and driving off the rails...down the sidewalk, and nearly running over the man with amazing glutes.
Jackson Murphy is an avid jogger, and the local television station's scrumptious news director--if he can keep the job. Unfortunately, he has one year to resuscitate their wheezing news department or the owners are going to pull the plug. His hands are already full even without Sabrina dropping into them. The last thing he needs is to be involved with a publicity stunt.
The road to love is bumpy. It'll take all of Cupid's arrows, and a lot of interference from friends, for these two to win the Dating Game.
My Review:
Cute story.
Book started off with excitement right off the bat and continued to be a disastrously fantastic romance. At one point I thought I could have guessed how the story was going to turn but I turned out oh so wrong. There were some serious moments too, which balanced everything out nicely.
The lead female in the story was a complete spaz in front of her "crush" but it was cute, and when they finally got together, she didn't hang on him every second of the day. Although she thought he could do better, and had her moments of doubt, she did her own thing, which was extremely commendable. I definitely recommend this if you are interested in a rom-com.
