I am in love. That's it. This is such a fun romcom with all the right tropes - a boy obsessed with one sided enemies to lovers... Just what the doctor prescribed. I loved reading every second of it, and ended up finishing it in one go, staying up till 3am to read this because it was just SO GOOD.

The main leads - Drew and London - are so good together and it shows. What starts of as a fuck buddies arrangement quickly turns into more. What the best part about it is that neither Drew nor London shy away from it. They are apprehensive about catching feelings, of course, but they don't take the long road home. It's a direct train to happiness, and I love that. It's just two people realizing that they've actually fallen in love without realizing and then deciding that they're going to give it a try. Also, bonus points for having no third act break up!

I love the focus on London's career, as well as her family issues. London is a paediatric surgeon, and one of the most loved members of the staff at the hospital she works at. She's brilliant at her job, but that comes with a set of issues of it's own. I think the whole arc with her job is explored very beautifully and given the importance it deserves. It's not brushed aside for the sake of romance and I like that. Though I would have loved if there was more focus on it, the author still did a splendid job.

I also like how London's family was introduced in the story. Her issues with her dad were handled very well, and I like the ending to the whole thing. It was very realistic and believable. I also adore how they showed such a loving relationship between London's mom and step-mom. Those two are certified besties who share everything with each other and that was such a refreshing thing to see. I loved it.

Overall, The Hookup Plan was a fantastic read and I'm so glad to have picked it up!

I love a hero who has silently pined for the heroine for years before he finally gets the chance to be with her. I live for it. So you know The Hookup Plan was perfection. Drew and London were high school nemeses who take out all of their aggression on each other at their high school reunion. It doesn't hurt that they're both super hot, rich, successful, and into each other now.

This was a fun read.

I have enjoyed this entire series and London and Drew as the wrap up was pretty great. I had been waiting for London's book since book 1 - I love a hard, blunt, pragmatic woman and she is all of those things and more. A badass pediatric surgeon who knows what she wants (most of the time) re-connecting with her high school nemesis in a enemies to lovers, hookup, lust to love trope filled book is my CATNIP. And Farrah delivered.

Farrah incorporated so much depth into this storyline, although some of the depth I wish got wrapped up a little more (specifically London and her dad, London and Dr. Coleman). I know it's important to show "villains" that our lead character is stacked up against (especially in the form of racism, sexism that are so prevalent for Black women in their industries), it wasn't easy to read.

Drew and London were so great together - their chemistry was instant and I rooted for them the whole way. Also I loved the way that Farrah dealt with the climax of their relationship (no spoilers, but it's unusual in romance). The steam is hot, the friend group of Samiah and Taylor are supportive and funny, and the family dynamics were great. A perfect summer read!

The third book in the Boyfriend Project trilogy is a steamy enemies to lovers romance, layered with real emotions and three dimensional characters. It's a fast paced story that will immediately get readers invested in things working out between super stubborn London and sweet, endearing Drew. A worthy end to the series!

Ahh what will I do without the 3 Boyfriend Project Girls.

Book three follows the highly anticipated story of London Kelly. If you've read the previous two books you already know that London is the practical, type A, workaholic. With the end of her residency fast approaching and her hospital facing cuts, London has some choices to make.

Coincidentally, London reconnects with her high school nemesis, Drew Sullivan, at a reunion and decides a one night stand will help alleviate some stress. That is, until Drew also shows up at London's hospital in charge of their financial review.

Now these sworn enemies have to work together for a common cause and save the hospital. But you know what they say, hate isn't all that different from love.

**

Love these characters. I really relate to the dedication London has to work and I think many people have found themselves in similar situations where they push themselves while knowing it's not healthy. Drew was the person in London's life who forced her to slow down and take care of herself (besides just sleeping together).

Drew is a complex love-interest who is working through his own grief. Sometimes I think this genre can fall into the trap where the heroine is the one going through stuff and the love interest suddenly makes everything better. London and Drew go through their baggage together.

I just wish the reason for their rivalry was stronger. To associate Drew with her own father seemed a bit juvenile. I love Drew and London together but it didn't feel like a strong "enemies" to lovers.

I love romance novels where the characters are competent and direct. London wants a no-strings fling, and she sets that boundary clearly and directly. It's refreshing. Drew would definitely be interested in more, but respects the line London draws while also making his own wants, needs, and expectations clear. Y'all, this is two adults being clear about desires and boundaries. I live for that. The whole cast is fun, enthusiastic, and supportive. This is peak summer reading, light and well done.

Enemies to lovers, enemies to friends with benefits are some of the tropes in those book. While I overall enjoyed this book I didn’t connect with the characters and the romance fell flat for me. I did love that London was a strong, career driven doctor. . I did not read the series so that maybe why I struggled some with this book. Overall if you love a cute enemies to hookup you will let enjoy this one!

Thank you NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for the e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

This novel did a good jib of wrapping up this series. An enjoyable contemporary romance. My only complaint was that this one made me a bit anxious, which I use romance reading to avoid.

This has been an enjoyable series, and I thought this book wrapped it up nicely. I liked that this series centers around a strong female friendship, and this is the final book in the series focusing on London, a pediatric surgeon, whose hospital is in a financial bind. In comes Drew, London's high school nemesis, to audit the struggling hospital. They first re-connect at their high school reunion and find much of that animosity has been left behind, and attraction and one-night stand followed. Except there's Drew at the staff meeting when she's next at work and things get complicated.

I liked the main characters in this story and found the the love story convincing. It was a fairly straight-forward romance with any drama being external. It was low-angst, and it didn't have a strong climactic moment for me. However, if looking for a low-angst romance with worthy characters, this is a good choice.

<i>Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a chance to read and review this book. Views are my own.

By far my favorite of Farrah Rochon’s books so far! A little bit Grey’s Anatomy, a little bit Hating Game, this is a fun quick summer read. The romance part did fall a bit flat the first half but it did pick up. London is a go getter with daddy issues and Drew is the boy she hated since hs bc of said daddy issues. It would’ve been really easy to not like London for all her issues and original attitude towards Drew but Rochon makes her so caring and likable as a doctor who truly cares for her patients for you to disconnect from her. Really enjoyed this read.

2.5 stars

The Hookup Plan is a contemporary romance with a lot of different tropes. It had enemies-to-lovers, friends (more like enemies) with benefits, workplace romance, woman in STEM (main character is a surgeon), and even guy falls for girl first. As much as I love all these plots I just couldn't get into the book. Don't even fully know why. It could be that at first, I found the main character annoying and so I couldn't connect to her, which sucks since the book is very character driven. There were also a few things that happened in the book that made go...what the- did she really just...??? BUT I did love the love interest. Drew is funny, nice, and sarcastic and smart (and he's rich rich).

I did enjoy the book. Just not as much as I thought I would. I think I set my expectations way too high after reading the blurb. Or maybe I just read the book at the wrong time and wasn't really in the mood for it.

Thank you NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for the e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

This book was perfect! I love the enemies to lover book trope and Farrah nailed this book! London Kelly is a pediatric surgeon. She is a strong, intelligent woman who is a workaholic. The hospital she works at is facing a budget deficit and the possibility of being sold . While at a high school reunion London runs into her handsome archenemy, Drew Sullivan! Drew and London start to reminisce leading them to one magical night together. Drew works for the company who is helping audit. Drew and London create a hook up plan. But they as their plan progress they begin to fall for one another. A must read and thank you for the arc!

Thank you to Hachette Book Group for this ARC.

The Hookup Plan is the third in The Boyfriend Project series. The strong female friendships is my favorite part of this series. I love seeing strong women support each other. And the women in this series are all smart and independent which is another great aspect.

In The Hookup Plan London, the ultra-busy pediatric surgeon, is looking for a hookup buddy to help relieve stress on the advice of her good friends Taylor and Samiah. London finds the perfect hookup buddy in her high-school classmate Drew. He's in town for work for a few weeks so no strings attached.

London could not stand Drew in high school and they vied for all the top academic honors. She still holds a grudge against him. She is surprised to find herself falling for Drew when she begins to see the him for who is really is.

I feel that the characters of London and Drew have good development for a romance novel. Good attention was paid to portraying who they are as people and what drives them. I enjoyed getting a glimpse into London's work in the hospital. And of course I enjoyed the scenes where London, Taylor, and Samiah were all together. They have such real life banter and camaraderie.

I enjoyed this book very much and hope at some point Rochon decides to revisit these characters. I would like to see what's next for all of them.

This book has all of the right pieces: relatable and enjoyable characters, a good plot line, and so much heat. Unfortunately, even with the right formula, it didn’t work for me. There was nothing blatantly wrong with any of it, but I did have to push through for days to finish it.

The Hookup Plan is actually the third book on a romance series by Farrah Rochon. This series follows three women who have a video of them go viral when they all find out they are dating the same guy. This third and final book follows London, a pediatric surgeon in her last year of residency who is under an extreme amount of stress. While at her 15 year high school reunion, she bumps into Drew, a hedge fund manager and her rival from high school. She holds a huge grudge against him because not only was he the popular guy, he was also her co-valedictorian, a title London worked her whole school life to achieve. Despite being enemies, after a few drinks at a bar after the reunion, London decided that a no strings attached hookup with someone that she has always disliked will be the perfect way to let loose without the worry of forming an attachment. When Drew’s company begins auditing the hospital that London works for, the two agree to keep up the no strings hookups because that definitely won’t end in them having feelings for each other.

I really enjoyed this book. I actually haven’t read the other books in this series but that didn’t take away from my enjoyment of this installment. I didn’t already know the other two women that were friends with London that the other two books followed but there weren’t any inside jokes or anything that went over my head. I am now interested in reading the other two books now.

This author did this romance very well. The main characters were well developed they were both dealing with real issues that people in their early 30s deal with (except maybe the being a multi millionaire like Drew). There was some talk about grief and losing a parent that I thought was really well done. London has to make tough choices about her career and her future and the author did a really good job at showing why those decisions were difficult. The last chunk of the book didn’t go in a direction romance books normally go in so I was happy to see something different.

The only thing I disliked about this book was London’s relationship with food. She has a lot of negative thoughts involving food, especially sweets. I feel like a lot of this was just brushed off and not really talked about so it made it feel more like it was something normal to be worried about. While eating healthy is important, I don’t think a person should berate themselves if they eat a cake out of a vending machine after not eating all day.

Other than that, I really liked this book. We did get London and Drew’s perspective so that always adds to a romance book. I think if you like romances, especially ones with a smart female lead, this is one to pick up.

Farrah Rochon brings forth her third installment in the boyfriend project series. Starring London a stressed out pediatric surgeon and Drew a sweet hedge fund manager who happen to be high school rivals. The two are brought together again at their fifteen year high school reunion a the sexual tension is too much to bear and the two hookup. After the hook up London has no intention of ever seeing Drew again,however, she gets the surprise of her life when she learns that not only is Drew back in Austin for good he’s also been hired by the hospital she works at and the decision for the funds she so desperately needs lies in his hands.

I had a good time reading this and I really loved London and Drew as individuals. I felt they both strong personalities and characteristics. I was really tickled at the method London choose to wine down. Her crocheting was so relatable to me. Drew was really sweet and I loved that he secretly crushed on London back in the day. I also liked how he seemed to balance London and her neurosis out. There was no typical “misunderstanding” with this couple which I loved. Just open communication and conflict resolution.

My only criticism is I felt like the whole rivals to lovers thing wasn’t well done. London seemed to be in a one sided rivalry with Drew to be honest and that made her mistrust and dislike for him seem misguided and stupid.

Overall, this was a satisfying conclusion to a series. Thank you to NetGalley and Forever (Grand Central) Publishing for the Arc in exchange for an honest review.

The Hookup Plan is the third book in The Boyfriend Project Series. London has been a favorite character of mine from the first two books which each focus on one of the three amazing woman in the friend group. Dare I say the best part of the series is the female friendship? In this book London has her own enemies to lovers story which was fun to read. I liked how Drew liked to rial up London and the chemistry they have between them. A fitting finish to the series.

Thank you Netgalley and Forever (Grand Central Publishing) for the eArc.

While I usually love enemies/rivals-to-lovers, this one didn't do it for me. I didn't connect with the characters, and I really enjoyed the other books in the series more.

I love a good enemies to lovers trope. I read the Boyfriend project and enjoyed it. I read the dating playbook, while I enjoyed the writing, I couldn’t hang with them Diet talk personally. London is probably my favorite if the girl gang. She’s super smart and successful. Just missing some loving in her life. My favorite part about the whole series is how the ladies became friends and whenever they get together the banter is great!!

So first of all I did not realize this book was apart of the boyfriend project series! On the other hand, I was very glad that it could be read as stand alone. I will definitely read the other two books.

Anyways, I enjoyed this book. I sometimes dislike the enemies to lovers trope because it can be very repetitive.

London and Drew both attended their high school class reunion and London was not happy to see him. London has hated Drew for the longest. Mainly because she competed with Drew during high school. Drew ended up outsmarting London and that made London hate him. Fifteen years later he will be back in her life. London and Drew have issues that go on in their family and I enjoyed reading about that along with the romance. It balanced very well.

Overall, the romance is very good, and I liked this author’s writing. However it was a tad boring towards the end. Regardless of me being a little bored, I recommend this romance book.
