Business or Pleasure by Rachel Lynn Solomon
Publisher: Berkley (July 4, 2023)
ISBN-13: 978-0593548530
OVERVIEW:
Chandler Cohen has never felt more like the ghost in “ghostwriter” until she attends a signing for a book she wrote—and the author doesn’t even recognize her. The evening turns more promising when she meets a charming man at the bar and immediately connects with him. But when all their sexual tension culminates in a spectacularly awkward hookup, she decides this is one night better off forgotten.
Unfortunately, that’s easier said than done. Her next project is ghostwriting a memoir for Finn Walsh, a C-list actor best known for playing a lovable nerd on a cult classic werewolf show who now makes a living appearing at fan conventions across the country. Chandler knows him better from their one-night stand of hilarious mishaps.
Chandler’s determined to keep their partnership as professional as possible, but when she admits to Finn their night together wasn’t as mind-blowing as he thought it was, he’s distraught. He intrigues her enough that they strike a deal: when they’re not working on his book, Chandler will school Finn in the art of satisfaction. As they grow closer both in and out of the bedroom, they must figure out which is more important, business or pleasure—or if there’s a way for them to have both.
Business or Pleasure by Rachel Lynn Solomon Review
The story had such a great plot. It really has the ability just to suck you into the story and, it’s definitely going to be one that you will want to re-read again and again.
The two main characters are just a delightful experience. They have such wonderful qualities and the author did a fabulous job with the build-up. Their personalities are eclectic; they balance each other beautifully. You feel and experience their vulnerabilities too.
I absolutely love the lessons in bed that lead them into a bit of trouble. It is humorous, sexy, steamy, and slightly embarrassing for them but a delight to follow along as they learn and explore each other.
Finn is a fabulous character. He has wonderful qualities that make him stand out in the book boyfriend crowd. The hot nerd is definitely alive and well.
Solomon has added so much to the story that keeps it interesting and unique. We have characters with OCD, anxiety, parental issues, and past abortions. All of these are handled with grace and compassion. She also brings us empowerment and a focus on healing in this touching story.
The one thing that really disappointed me though is the ending. After everything we went through in the book, the ending fell super short for me. I wanted more! An epilogue would have made this a 5-star read for me.
Overall, Business or Pleasure is fun, exciting, sexy, steamy, empowering, and fresh. Grab this one!
