I want a Blind Date!Lauren Landish has done it again。 Her mix of humor and some outrageous situations makes The Blind Date a book I did not put down until I finished it。 I started at 4:30 AM; thinking I'd fall back to sleep。 Riley and Noah had me all up in their business like I knew them and had a stake in their happiness。 I found myself laughing and crying and reflecting on life。 I don't follow Media Influencers but I did do the Sunshine Wave。 LOL!

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 Amazing! I loved Noah and Riley! Noah is the strong alpha man who was brought to his knees by Riley。 She softened him as a person and let him be himself。 Riley was an energetic happy woman who had to realize everything is not always “sunshine。” While reading, I always try to figure out what the “conflict” will be。 I was not able to figure it out in this story。 I also loved how this conflict was not some huge drawn out issue。 It was fixed pretty quickly。 I enjoyed how the epilogue was written。 Ju Amazing!

The Blind Date by Lauren Landish a five-star read that you wouldn’t walk away from。 This was simply divine, it’s been one of those stories that sucked me in and hasn’t let me go even though I finished it days ago。 Every time I sat down to write this, I struggled as I could not do the words that are written justification, Riley and Noah will suck you into their story, they will have your heart pounding and your eyes filling。 This is just simply sublime and one of my all-time faves by this author。

Andrea,
Noah and Riley's story is unlike most of the books I've read recently。 It is less boisterous, less overly dramatic, although there is enough drama in this book as well。 It has more depth, provides more insight into the characters' feelings and thought processes。 Ms。 Landish has done a great job of letting the reader participate in the inner turmoil, conflicting emotions, and roller coaster rides of the human psyche。 In some respects, this book is a bit quieter in terms of plot, but all the more Noah and Riley's story is unlike most of the books I've read recently。 It is less boisterous, less overly dramatic, although there is enough drama in this book as well。 It has more depth, provides more insight into the characters' feelings and thought processes。 Ms。 Landish has done a great job of letting the reader participate in the inner turmoil, conflicting emotions, and roller coaster rides of the human psyche。 In some respects, this book is a bit quieter in terms of plot, but all the more intense in terms of emotional level。 Riley and Noah's story is truly special, and I hope to see more of them in future books, such as Arielle's and Eli's story? 。。。more

An accident of the heart has lasting repercussions on the senses。 The Blind Date is a laugh riot。 Landish never stops trying to look at the bright side, even at the cost of exposing emotion。 From foolish pride to hidden insecurities, Riley and Noah make beautiful music together, they just have to find the right tune to stay on the right note forever。 Sweet sizzle with a hint of spice leaves the heart feeling so very nice。

Jeeves Reads Romance,
Sugary sweet with plenty of spice, this opposites attract romance was a lot of fun。 I love a grumpy/sunshine romance, and I also love unique meet cutes, so this caught my attention right away。 The hero is my kind of grumpalicious workaholic, and I loved watching him fall。 It's not long before he's in over his head, and this sweet, sassy heroine turns his world upside down。 I also loved that they knew (and disliked) each other just a little bit before meeting through a dating app, and I adored th Sugary sweet with plenty of spice, this opposites attract romance was a lot of fun。 I love a grumpy/sunshine romance, and I also love unique meet cutes, so this caught my attention right away。 The hero is my kind of grumpalicious workaholic, and I loved watching him fall。 It's not long before he's in over his head, and this sweet, sassy heroine turns his world upside down。 I also loved that they knew (and disliked) each other just a little bit before meeting through a dating app, and I adored the use of texting。 This was on track to be an easy 5-star rating for me, but our hero falls a little TOO fast, so there was a definite lull in the middle。 It became almost sickly sweet and there was too much focus on our heroine's career as an influencer。 Don't get me wrong - this is also SUPER steamy, and our couple has some serious chemistry - but I think the beast was tamed too quickly。 The story follows Noah, a moody workaholic who is just putting the finishing touches on the dating app that he developed。 While testing out the matchmaking process for research purposes, Noah creates a profile for himself using a fake name。 To his surprise, Noah discovers that there's a woman on the app who has been deemed his near-perfect match。 The two strike up a conversation, and it's not long before they're getting closer via text。 Though they've never even seen photos of each other, there are feelings on both sides before they meet in person。 The only problem? That meeting doesn't go according to plan。 Turns out, Noah's dream girl is actually his best friend's little sister - also known as the woman who thinks he's nothing but a work-obsessed jerk。Honestly, I was really loving this in the beginning。 The app storyline worked for me in a big way, and I loved how close Noah and Riley get before they even meet。 That part of the story had me swooning and completely engaged。 It just didn't last long enough, and my interest started to wane。 I feel kinda weird saying that the book became too sweet and easy for me, but there was definitely a LOT of that in the middle。 Sure, Noah and Riley burned up the pages (she brought the HEAT this time), but a significant portion of the book is just them being together。 There's nothing that I didn't like about the story - and I considered a 5-star rating - but it really does drag in the middle。 If you're in the mood for something sweet yet sexy (you'll never look at a treadmill the same way), then this will certainly satisfy。 I received an early copy and am voluntarily leaving a review of this best friend's little sister romance。 。。。more

This book will definitely give you all the feels。 I absolutely love reading Noah & Riley’s story。 They are both amazing characters that you will never forget。 Noah & Riley may not have had the best relationship but when a match on a dating app brings them together nothing will keep them apart。 Truly an amazing story, that has me glued too my kindle。 I voluntarily reviewed this Advanced Reader Copy of this book。
