I couldn’t stop smiling while listening to this one. A super cute romance that had me loving Annie & her flower shop from the beginning.
4.5 ⭐️ Sarah Adam’s you have done it again!!! I don’t understand why it took me so long to read the second book. It stayed on my TBR for so long and I am beating myself for it. This book had me kicking my feet and being all giddy. It’s seriously such a cute little romance book. We LOVE for a man who communicates. Someone who will hear their person out.
Annie and Will had different perspectives for love and life which proves that there is someone out there for everyone. The chemistry and seamless communication between both of them was something that took time. It was something that was build overtime and truthfully I was loving every single time.
“You’d do that for me?” “I’m quickly learning I’d do anything for you.” Their relationship was simply evolving throughout the book and you can tell how much Will wanted things to work out between them.
Sarah Adams is quickly becoming one of my favorite romance authors. I love the books set in Rome, Kentucky. I love the small town vibe where everyone knows everyone and they all have each other’s back.
Will is one of my book boyfriends. I loved him so much! His growth throughout the book was just great to experience. His chemistry with Annie was just off the charts and their evolution into a relationship was so fun to experience.
I really enjoyed the moments of humor and I found myself laughing out loud. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
My heart! Opposites attract are true and this book will prove it...along with make your heart a puddle of mush. Sarah is just so good are writing sweet romance stories with strong gruffy men and soft sweet women and this is just perfection. Annie is a flower shop owner who is the quiet shy, social anxious sister of the family. She desperately wants to find love but is struggling so much in that area and every bad date she encounters just reiterates that fact. Will is the bodyguard to Annie's sister in-law, Amelia, and he is the picture-perfect bodyguard. He's broody, grumpy, no desire to stay in one place too long, tattoos too make you drool type of man. However, he may just be the perfect solution to Annie's dating problems. He just has to agree to give Annie dating lessons. Shouldn't be an issue, right? Wrong! You know there will be secret feelings involved that are going to make this journey all the better! Plus, mix in a town full of nosey people, secret sleep overs, spicy pirate romance books, and banana undies, you will have this perfect romance. It is really a great small-town romance that will show you, when you find your person, things change.
Cute! I actually listened to the audiobook but had a good time with this one. The romance was sweet. It was not a favorite but I enjoyed it.
this was so cute!!! sarah adams writes the most beautiful quick reads that are such palate cleansers. I love and would reccomend this to anyone! 4/5!
Cute book about a town's bad boy and cute florist local; overall a believable romance with some funny and realistic scenarios occurring. A great bubblegum read for those who like romance.
I LOVED this book. It was like a warm hug followed but a true belly laugh. I both couldn't stop reading but also didn't want to end! You can definitely say I'm in for any book by Sarah Adams.
A really sweet small town romance. Flower shop owner Annie and bodyguard Will seemingly have nothing in common, but Annie is determined to become the heroine of her own story, and she starts by asking Will to be her dating tutor. Gently romantic hijinks follow.
This would be a great book to give someone who wants to read closed door romance that isn't Amish. The town of Rome, Kentucky, is a charming backdrop, a place where nothing catastrophic happens.
Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for the ARC to review. All opinions are my own.
We love green flag men! I loved the premise and that it's not too spicy! Not all romances need to be spicy to make you fall in love with a couple.
Sarah Adams creates such beautiful characters and stories that I will always pick up a book by her and this is no exception. I mean, a tattooed bodyguard AND it's a small town romance, sign me UP! The chemistry Annie and Will had was undeniable and I was invested in their relationship from page 1. This book is so sweet and I ate it up!!!
3.5
I liked it better than the first one, but it was still alright. The story was a bit more relatable, but sometimes the things adult characters say seemed a bit immature.
I did like that we were close to the first couple as well. Such a cute read, especially having a main character who loves books as well.
I would continue to read books by the author, but might not read these ones again.
Thank you to Ballantine Books Group and Random House Publishing for the ARC of Practice Makes Perfect!
This book started off very weird at first. Very hard core "omg the FMC is so petite and virginal" which was weird. The book made it seem like it was going one way, and then it suddenly changed paths and got better after stepping away from the virgin concept and into the girl put in a box concept. Once the change happened, the book got good! There were some lack luster things where the build up did not match the outcome, but it was a decent book overall.
This was drop dead cute!!! Practice Makes Perfect is everything I've ever wanted in such a cozy warm hug. Highly recommend this for anyone in need of a quick fun read! Romance for the win.
Annie Walker and Will Griffin couldn't be more different. However, as the saying goes, opposites attract. Annie is tired of being the 'boring' date. She wants to be flirtatious and confident, definitely not a wallflower. Enter Will, a temporary fixture in town and the perfect person to help Annie discover how to be fun and flirty. When the lines begin to blur, Annie will have to decide what her perfect partner actually looks like.
I love Sarah Adams and I love her books but this one was just fine to me. I didn’t find it note worthy and I definitely didn’t love it near as much as some of her previous books. Honestly, I seem to prefer her Indie books more than her traditionally published ones.
I’ll still read everything she writes so it didn’t turn me off of her!
I enjoyed this continuation of the Walkers. Annie is getting her turn in love, she hopes… she wants a stable man ready to settle down and have a family. Annie is a little shy, maybe awkward unsure how to find the right guy.…
Enter Will…but he is unavailable, so he says he will help her practice and learn how to date.
Follow this journey in a sweet story! Thank Net Galley for the advanced copy.
I WAITED FOR THIS AND IT WAS SO WORTH IT. Annie is just all sunshine and cutenss. Annie asks will to help her do better dating, because she let's it get to her that some guy said she was boring. Will, being a sweatheart with tattoos decide to help Amy. My God, he's the kind of hot that rain turn into steam around him. He's HOT. How can help but fall for Annie? I mean, I fell for Annie!
I laughed so hard about the ghost/haunting in the attic? If that's a haunting sign me up!
Just what I expected it to be. Cute and quirky and sweet. Exactly the kind of small town romance that can easily be read in a couple sittings. The banter was adorable while being a bit cheesy at times, but that’s a romcom for ya. Solid enjoyable 3 stars. Thank you NetGalley for the ARC.
Practice Makes Perfect by Sarah Adams was a cute read but it has its drawbacks. The main character's cringe-worthy moments made it difficult to fully immerse myself in the romance and respect the characters. While the plot had potential, the over-the-top awkwardness often detracted from the story. Despite these issues, there are still some charming moments!
