Lizzie Blake’s Best Mistake

Lizzie Blake has made a few mistakes. She has ADHD and has just lost a bakery job. Naturally she is bummed, but she is determined and won’t let that stop her even if it is upsetting. Lizzie is a fun and vivacious character. She has few close friends and isn’t afraid to admit that she enjoys one-night stands. She met a man online and planned to meet him at a bar, when he leaves her waiting, she meets someone else.

Rake is a charming and handsome man from Australia who is in town for work. He has sworn off relationships but there is something about Lizzie that he resist. He knows that he won’t be in town long, but there is just something about Lizzie that piques his interest.

Lizzie and Rake have a two-night stand which is steamy and full of witty banter. They enjoy each other’s company, but Lizzie is quick to point out that this is going nowhere, and Rake has to return to Australia. But when Lizzie tells him some shocking news, Rake makes plans to be with her.

This was such an enjoyable and fun book. I enjoyed the author’s first book in the series A Brush with Love and I thought this book was even better! Although this is the second book in a series, it’s a stand-alone as well.

I was a little apprehensive when I began reading this book. The synopsis gives a lot of information about the book and the plot. They pretty much gave away the farm and yet, this is a journey not to be missed. I enjoyed both characters and the supporting characters. Both characters go on individual journeys and their combined journey as well.

Even if you know quite a bit of the plot, this book still dazzled and shined. Plus, there are things not given away, that make this book a winner.

Delightful, steamy, charming, and full of witty banter!

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
