The beginning was a bit slow but it does pick up and get way more interesting. The back and forth and tension between these two is so fun to read about, then we find out he is the boss's son and yikes! The real turning point in the story is when she has to go back to Oregon and where their relationship goes from there. Funny, witty and an easy summer read!

Robin Bielman is a new author for me and one I swear I'm going to indulge in again. A complete feel good read. I fell in love with ALL the characters, they were funny, straight up, great people. The storyline is always a favourite with me.......sexy guy, complete commitment phobe, meets cute, adorable girl and basically falls in love. A couple of little twists within the storyline and I was completely addicted from the getgo. Mateo is a straight up, super nice, super sexy, if not overly confident guy, and our lead girl, Teague, is quiet, sexy, intelligent and in the process of becoming independent and finding her backbone, in this cute rom com. A light easy read, with some great chemistry and sexy times. A thoroughly enjoyable book.
I was provided with an advanced copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Talk British To Me by author Robin Bielman was a read full of emotion, likeable main characters with some laughter added to the mix. Teague and Mateo were perfectly matched in this story and were a joy to read. A great series starter from Ms Bielman.

This story is adorable. I absolutely loved it and enjoyed it so much. There were many laugh-out-loud moments. And not to mention swoon-worthy romance scenes. Teague and Matteo are just perfect. I highly recommend this book if you are a fan of romantic comedies, happily-ever-afters, and lighthearted stories.

I really liked Robin's books,but admittedly I struggled through this one. Maybe because of the extensive dialogue between Teague and Matteo and the number of times her just dumped her on her ass and his timing couldn't have been worse.

The book starts off great Teague and Harper are best friends who work in a coffeeshop together, they live in the guest house of Harpers Aunt and Uncles mansion, not too shabby and every day at 8 on the dot the whole coffee shop goes quiet as they listen to "the Dating Guy" on the radio. Complete with a british accent his sole job is to date and report on them ( what women like, what men like etc) and he also goes out with his friends to observe other couples also, using that as fodder for his radio show.
Matteo is smart stupid, maybe he can make a living off a radio program but he scores a massive fail in his own private life.

Part of leagues little coffee thing is to deliver up the street to an office which happens to be a wedding planner and a massive b%^&*!!!! Gabriella is demanding, bitchy and flat out controlling and mean ( and she's Matteo's mother) So when these two get together in their round about way she can't find out.

Teague and Harper were great together and had each others backs. Teague is close to her dad, she's the baby of the family, youngest of 4. Her family is close. The only this decent about Matteo's family is his Dad and we only see him for a couple lines. Matteo has a group of guys he played soccer with, they all live together and really seem supportive of each other. Matteo has only had one serious realtionship which trainwrecked when his girlfriend dumped him in his hospital room after he severely injured his leg and would never play soccer again.

Why am I telling you all this? To give you an idea of how convoluted the story gets. I think without all the side entertainment tossed in as a distraction, Matteo and Teague were enough to keep it going.
She was good enough to fuck after a lengthy period of time on her part, but not good enough for him to take out on a date. Matteo gets the big thumbs down. Teague I really liked and Harper too.
When I say I struggled with this it took my three days to excavate my way through this and that's a first.
