Love this book!! Im hoping to get a story on Davis. I think there's a really good story lurking there. What I liked about this book is Jackie and Vince's friendship with each other. They've been there to see each other at their worst. Now Vince is trying to get Jackie back into the dating game, or is?
Jackie Butler believe she just me be in love with the mysterious, gorgeous man who runs by her office window like clockwork everyday. It's become somewhat of a hobby for her and her friend Kayla who, just happens to be happily married but she still likes to look. What Kayla and her friend Vince dos the know is the mysterious runner also lives in her apartment building. She doesn't want them to know because then they will want her to make a date. And she isn't sure she's ready for that again. Dating hasn't gone as planned for her since her divorce.

Vince Carson starts to notice Jackie Butler in more ways then just friends. They have been there for one another since their divorces and now they have an easy friendship with each other. But sleeping with friends never works out. And Butler is pining away for the mysterious man, aka Jaundice, so Vince decides to get Jackie over Jaundice.

Butler can't believe Vince is making her ask out her mystery man. But Butler decides it's time to get back on that horse. So before butler looses her nerve she asks the man out. And within days she has two men she's interested in. And she couldn't be more confused on what to do. Can best friends have sex and still be friends?

I felt like at times this book dragged a little, but overall I really enjoyed this book. The characters were very relatable and the romance was hot. I liked how it shows the insecurities of both, men and women, and how different people deal with those insecurities. The two main characters had great chemistry and I was so happy when they got together in the end! Their journey wasn't easy, but that's what makes it so special. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series, hopefully Davis will get his happily ever after next!

This book and story was beyond wonderful. It is about two divorced friends who also work VERY closely together. Vince and Jackie are besties, they hang out on each others couches and hang out together but have never kissed or dated. Vince was divorced one year ago and Jackie three but Jackie was cheated on and Vince just lost his wife.

The one who has not recovered really is Jackie, but she has this big crush on this guy who jogs by her work and lives in her apartment, JT. So Vince helps her date him. But the thing is Vince wants her too. So what happens? Well I am not spoiling the story but this was a really fun and romantic story.

I LOVE Vince and I loved this story. It was fun watching Jackie really find herself and figure out what she wants in a man.

Eye candy is best friends to lovers love story. It is ok story with interesting characters but I expected more. Both Jackie and Vince are hurt from their exes and that is what brought them together. But in between the feelings become deeper and Jackie’s obsession over runner push Vince in to action. But he does it wrong and his good friend Davis help him to find the right way. Of course old insecurities come to life an again they are both feeling betrayed.

I volunteered to review an ARC of this book for Netgelly

I’ll be one of the first to admit that one of my favorite kinds of love stories is best friends falling for each other. You know: ‘real love.’ And that’s what this story is. “I just kissed my best friend. And hell, I don’t know if she wanted me to.”

I wasn’t sure I was gonna like the divorced aspect, but I did. Just wish we saw Jackie’s ex as much as we saw Vince’s, so then they’d have more of an equal fight going on. But Vince’s plan to have Jackie date a tool (well, any guy, actually) so after said tool inevitably breaks it off, Vince can then swoop in and show her what a good guy looks like, ah, is kind of crazy, yes, but if she has commitment issues, then I guess I don’t blame him for having to do something crazy to get the girl. And yes he did. Eventually.

And the chemistry between them was awesome. Loved the scene on the stairs. And the Bethany and J.T. scene. The fight really bothered me though. You both have trust issues. Jackie did something stupid. Vince knows this is her first real attempt back into the dating world. He should have really gotten past it quicker. He probably would have freaked out if he saw Jackie with her ex. That part just bothered me. They were both being immature and stupid about it to me, and that was annoying to see. Did love Davis attempting to knock some sense into them though. That was cool.

“I don’t think we should do too many meetings together because it’s obvious how much we love each other…To avoid everyone being grossed out all the time, we should keep our desires reserved for before nine and after five.”

For some reason, I just really wanted to know how old Jackie and Vince were. And for them to have a conversation about babies. ‘Cause, you know. If you’re gonna be together forever, then you gotta talk about babies. Didn’t they have those conversations in their previous marriages?

And I love Davis. So excited for his story! And I so agree with Jackie- mailing someone an envelope full of glitter is a damn fine weapon of revenge. Remind me to never piss her off.

“…I still think you can do better.”
“Well, probably…But you’re the one I’m in love with, so I guess I’ll have to make it work.”

➳A love story that is filled with second chances, doubts, and going from a friends to lovers relationship that will swoon you away through every word that Jessica has brought to the reader…
➳Friends that have known each other and made each other comfortable in the most comforts of ways, decide to move on from their friend zone to an intimate zone. As the vice presidents from the same company, Jacqueline and Vince has been friends through the thick and thin. Both are attractive parties that unfortunately have not seen that aspect of themselves in a way to share towards each other. It came down to the final straw that Vince had to convince Jacqueline to go out with him, instead of that one guy whom Jacqueline has been googling over whenever he runs outside her window for his morning jogs. To her, Vince was the one divorcee friend whom she wanted to respect and keep as a friend, if not, sometimes wanting to be more. Unfortunately, her mind was all wrapped around the fact that she thinks it’s too early for Vince to be out in the world and explore with other women. what she did not know is that Vince had already taken that set forward, he had been exploring the waters with other women, however, his interest never spiked above and beyond as his interest spikes with Jacqueline. To him though, Jacqueline is someone who he really cares for and does not want to hurt her, but he feel possessive of their friendship, but of her in general;
“She’s not the fucking type. She’s the main love type, and I’ve started wondering if Jackie might be a girl I’d like to make love to…”

➳After the first awkward attempt, and many other make out “sessions,” Vince and Jacqueline end up finding out they fit perfectly in everyday. They may have been friends that knew each other, but throughout time, and many other dates, they ended up knowing each other more and more. That is the sweet spot about this love story. The same message we hear all the time about not knowing someone as much as we think we do, and Jessica Lemmon has brought that message to above and beyond.

➳Overall I enjoyed this love story. The only factor that I did not like was the whole date me and date him as well scenario. I am not one who likes stories with the “sharing is fine” memo, so this was something that triggered a dislike from me.Though overall, the third party was needed in this love story to determine the passion Vince and Jacqueline actually have for each other.

I enjoyed, but I just wanted Vince and Jackie to work it out faster. Jessica Lemmon is always on point. Love this HEA

I included a review to the publisher so that they can make the decision about publishing it. Thank you.

Whew, what a steamy book. I'm a sucker for the "best friends turned lovers" story line, so this book appealed to me on a lot of levels. Eye Candy was well written, sexy, and kept me coming back for more. I'm looking forward to reading more books by Jessica Lemmon!

My first time reading a book by this author and it won't be my last. I liked Jacqueline, or Butler, from the start and Vince is a hoot. The pace may have been a bit slow and it took a while for me to understand Vince's reasoning for his coaching. However, there were some great scenes and dialogue that helped move the story along and their first time together was super hot. There could have been better communication between them and I found that story came to an abrupt stop.

Eye Candy is a perfect, steamy romantic-comedy standalone that you won't want to put down! The sexual tension is perfect and you will fall in love with these two characters. I felt so bad for both Vince and Jackie because they both deserve real happiness considering what they've both been through and you're heart will ache for them, but you'll also laugh out loud and snort as times! Perfect combination of steamy and funny. I cannot wait to read Davis's story -- I bet he has some secrets to share! ;) Would absolutely recommend this book!

OMG I am totally in love with this book by Jessica Lemmon. Eye Candy was funny, sexy, entertaining and always had me wanting more. If you are looking for a amazing friends to lovers romance then i strongly recommend you pick up a copy of Eye Candy. I didn't want Jackie and Vince's story to end. The connection/banter between them was fantastic. Jackie and Vince are both CO-VP's for a marketing firm and also divorcee's. Thru there experiences they have developed an amazing friend ship. Jackie is done with dating but can't help to ogle a sexy male runner who jogs past her window at the same time every day. Vince is starting to notice that his feelings for Jackie are more than friends feeling but knows that she would not cross the line with him. Find out how he gets her to get over her non dating and how he slides in to save the day. I can't wait for more books from this author.

This was an excellent 'friends to lovers' story and I loved that the first guy we're introduced to might not be the best guy. With a bit of a slow burn, I thought author kept fantastic chemistry between the hero and heroine throughout the novel. Based on this book, I would check out others stories by the author!

I was gifted this book through Netgalley in exchange for my honest opinion. While overall it was a pretty good book. And that it took a minute to get their happily ever after. I didn't like the games they had to play and all the insecurities to get where ended up at the end. For instance, Vince pretending to coach her to just to get her. Jackie with her indecisiveness, not sure of what she wanted. I get that she was she cheated on. But she used that as a crutch and excuse for everything. I would like to see Davis get his own story because he was certainly a piece of work.

Whether you've been divorced, cheated on, broken up with, or just felt more for a friend than you thought they do for you- so many can relate to this story. It's well written and reaches a range of audience. Ms. Lemmon does a great job getting you inside the minds of the characters so you can almost feel what they are going thru as you read their story. This book has the perfect mix of easy read (her writing just flows), romantic sparks (but not enough to push you into the don't-read-in-front-of-others category), ups and downs of a relationship, and some classic girl time/buddy time moments. Recommend to anyone wanting a good modern day romance!

Man, this book left me frustrated a few times (which in this case was a sign of stellar writing) Vince and Jackie can just not get their shit together. The ups and the downs were a rollercoaster of emotion. But the ending made it all worth it. I'm really liking forward to the next one.

3 Stars. Sorry, but I just didn't like this book. I hate that Vince is playing games with Jackie & than gives up on her for being jealous! Than he goes & gets jealous of JT after he tells Jackie he's done with her?! What!?! When Jackie tells him she's in love with him, she's being a bigger person than I would've been! And does Vince tell Jackie that he loves her too? No! Really Vince, really?! Vince is a childish jerk that overreacts ALL the time! This book made me mad & frustrated! Mostly at Vince. It was a good story but I just couldn't get over Vince & his stupid way of thinking! First he wants Jackie, than he doesn't, changed his mind-again-and wants her only to end everything over a ridiculous fight?! Make up your mind, man! It would've pissed me off to where I'd probably do to Vince what Jackie's sister did to J.T.!! This was just a very frustrating book!

I liked the idea of the book. But it jus never lived up. I tried but skimmed thru.

Love it! Love it! Love it!

Friends to lovers is my favorite trope and this was executed perfectly! The characters have each had failed marriages and neither has had a serious relationship (with the opposite sex) since, except for their’s.

This read is sexy, steamy, fun, honest and real! Eye Candy seriously has it all!
