The Honey-Don't List by Christina Lauren: Review

One of my favorite writing duo’s is the collab of Christina Lauren. I have read so many of their books, I cannot even count. I am always excited to be able to review their newest works.

Coming up this spring, they have a new one that you are going to need to grab. A delightful, humorous, yet a wee bit sad story that leaves you with a smile and a happy glow.

About:
Carey Duncan has worked for home remodeling and design gurus Melissa and Rusty Tripp for nearly a decade. A country girl at heart, Carey started in their first store at sixteen, and—more than anyone would suspect—has helped them build an empire. With a new show and a book about to launch, the Tripps are on the verge of superstardom. There’s only one problem: America’s favorite couple can’t stand each other.

James McCann, MIT graduate and engineering genius, was originally hired as a structural engineer, but the job isn’t all he thought it’d be. The last straw? Both he and Carey must go on book tour with the Tripps and keep the wheels from falling off the proverbial bus.

Unfortunately, neither of them is in any position to quit. Carey needs health insurance, and James has been promised the role of a lifetime if he can just keep the couple on track for a few more weeks. While road-tripping with the Tripps up the West Coast, Carey and James vow to work together to keep their bosses’ secrets hidden, and their own jobs secure. But if they stop playing along—and start playing for keeps—they may have the chance to build something beautiful together…

The Honey-Don’t List by Christina Lauren Review

Have you ever had a job that consumed you? One where you felt like you had no personal time to yourself? One where you ate, slept, and breathed work?

If so, you are going to relate so much to this new story!

In a story reminiscent of some popular TV shows, this crazy book really makes you thank goodness you do not have a boss like James and Carey suffer through. So it is alllllmost natural that these two find themselves drawn to each other, if only for commiseration purposes.

I love they way these two came together and those sweet sparks that flash between the pages. For two people so different, they are a darling blend that have to deal with the crazy. After all, who wants to babysit a couple who seem to hate each other?

While zany situations abound and the crazy emotions fly, James and Carey try to eek some privacy much to the chagrin of their boss. Perfectly set up for some super hot, sexy romance, the heat level in this one is not what we normally see from this writing team. I wanted more detail and fire from the nerdy hottie! Yummm

The Honey-Don’t List is written with amazing clarity and their classic wit, Christina Lauren offers up a sweetheart of a read that proves love can happen in the most unexpected places and during some pretty wild situations.
