OMG! I absolutly LOVED this book!!! I was just on the edge of my seat waiting for Sarah and Ryan to figure out their emotions and feelings. Both always have fun with the other and with a little flirting thrown in. It makes it so much better! This book was super cute and I am excited to read more from this author.
Please note: I received a copy of FALLING FOR MR. WRIGHT from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the publisher and author.
Five stars and here’s why:
Ms. Neeley rocked this friends to lovers story! In FALLING FOR MR. WRIGHT, Sarah asks her BFF and coworker, Ryan to help land the one guy she’s been crushing on: their boss and his other best friend, Logan. A self-proclaimed serial dater, Ryan is torn between helping Sarah—the girl he’s crushing on—win over Logan and keeping her to himself. This sweet and sexy story will make you laugh, cry, and bang your head against the table a few times. If you enjoy fast-paced writing, humorous scenes, as well as sexy guys and savvy women, this book is for you. Highly entertaining. Highly recommend.
MY RATING: 4.5/5
I received an ARC from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
I was contacted this morning by Robyn Neeley herself, asking if I wanted to review her holiday office romance and I was so touched. But it was funny because I actually requested this book myself and her email was just a little nudge, reminding me that I have yet opened the epub in my email to read. So thanks Robyn for reminding me because if you didn't, I would have forgotten and missed out this really adorable read!
Just like what Robyn's twitter bio says, she does wright (get it) really cute romance novels. Falling for Mr. Wright won my heart by chapter two when we realized that our hero, Ryan, was in love with his best friend at work, Sarah. The only problem? Sarah was more interested in Ryan's best friend, Logan.
I know. I KNOW!!!! I'm freaking out at this point too because we just see how Ryan was pining over Sarah while also trying to fulfill his friendship duties and help Sarah and Logan get together while he was probably dying inside. After some much motivation by Ryan's sister, Ryan decides to help Sarah and Logan but also help himself by being there for her and making him more present so that just maybe, Sarah could finally stop having tunnel vision and see that the right person for her was standing beside her all along.
I really liked Ryan as a character. He was just a gooooooood guy. And after reading so many stories about a**holes who treat the heroines like yesterday's garbage, I'm totally digging Ryan's sweet ways. How he slow dances with Sarah. How he's so unsure and nervous about making the first move to kiss Sarah. And his heartbreaking back story.
The two are just silly characters in the end when they don't communicate their feelings for each other. Sarah is too afraid to admit to Ryan because she's worries that Ryan only wanted a fling. And Ryan thinks Sarah only is with him because it's convenient and she still really likes Logan when IT'S SO NOT TRUE. UGH!
Anyways, the book was cute and touching. I enjoyed the christmas elements of it and obviously, I'm now a big fan of Robyn's works!!!!! Just add her to the growing number of authors to look out for in Entangled Publishing.
The reason why I didn't give it a perfect 5/5 was because while the lead up to the big confession was cute, it was mildly confusing to follow and that made me not enjoy my experience with the book for that whole chapter.
MY RECOMMENDATION:
UM. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? READ IT NOWWWWWWW!
All Sarah had to do was turn around and open her eyes, but her “love” blinders could only see Logan, the handsome CEO of the firm she worked for. Christmas is right around the corner and she is determined to make Logan notice her. Who better to enlist to help her than Logan’s lifelong best friend and her lunch buddy, the easy-to-talk –to, easy-to-look-at, Ryan, the guy who is pretty perfect himself, but is completely anti-relationship when it comes to himself.
Yep, this Christmas and every Christmas, she wants to find herself under the Mistletoe with Logan and Ryan is going to give her an arsenal of tips to make it so. Okay, so that is what he said, but it isn’t what his heart wants…NOT that he wants a relationship with the beautiful Sarah, because he doesn’t do the “L” word anymore. Period. So, why does helping Sarah win Logan bother him so much? It isn’t like he has any feelings for her other than friendship, right???? RIGHT??
Robyn Neeley’s FALLING FOR MR. WRIGHT is THAT holiday read! Two insecure people, both clearly blinded to the reality their hearts know, neither quite able to admit there’s an elephant in the room with their initials carved in a heart…Sweet, funny, frustrating, the perfect Holiday Magic Romance! Ms. Neeley had me just loving this light and airy tale of two reasonably intelligent people, each with their side of the story! Oh, and a passion for my favorite candy…

Falling for Mr. Wright by Robyn Neeley is Book 1 in the Bachelors in Suits Series.
This was a fun friends-to-lovers/office romance contemporary read that hit the right spot. Neeley did a wonderful job with this first book in a brand new series. WTG!
An ARC was generously provided in exchange for an honest review of which this is both honest and completely voluntary.
Nice light romantic chic lit. Author should have omitted or just not included sex in the Epilogue.
Sarah asks her office buddy, Ryan, to help her catch the eye of his best friend who, coincidentally, is her boss.
I highly recommend this book. I read it in one sitting. There was so many ways Sarah could've been written wrong because of her "crush" but she was delightful and found myself cheering for her. Great work there, Ms Neeley.
While I liked this book, I was frustrated with the protagonists. I wanted to tell them that all they needed to do was to communicate, and all would be well.
I devoured this book one sitting. This is a book that perfectly illustrates that an old story can be something fresh and delightful in the right hands. Neeley has a wonderfully light touch with her writing style that made the pages almost seem to turn themselves. Definitely worth the extra large coffee I will need today after staying up past my bedtime.

4 stars!
I liked this friends to lovers book! Ryan has been secretly crushing on his coworker, Sarah for a while. Too bad Sarah has been crushing on Ryan's best friend and boss. Sarah comes to Ryan looking for helot win over he is friend. Can Ryan help Sarah with his best friend or keep her to himself?
After a spending time together as friends, Ryan and Sarah end up kissing, which seems to change the way Sarah sees Ryan. Hoping for something more, Ryan is weary on making anything more out of it. He knows she has had a thing for his friend, but still wants her for himself.
I thought this was a sweet story. I love friends to lovers books. This was a good one!
Really cute story of a friends to lover’s story! Loved Lucas and Ryan both! I’m hoping we get to see Lucas’s, and Mary Beth’s, story soon!
A sweet book about best friends who really could be so great together.
Sarah has a crush on her boss Logan, and who better to help her snag him than her friend/co-worker and Logan's best friend Ryan. Ryan reluctantly agrees to help despite his growing feelings for her.
Robyn Neeley has put together a fun story that's just the right length. I loved getting both Sarah and Ryan's perspectives and was frustrated right along with them both as they sent each other mixed signals. It was nice to get to see into their day to day friendship and how much they cared about each other even outside of their romantic feelings.
I definitely recommend this as a fun holiday read!
