This was a good concept for a book. I liked the chemistry between Jules and Cameron. There were some rather steamy scenes and it was interesting seeing the feelings of inadequacy from the male side rather than the female.

I loved Camerons sisters a lot they were a great addition, encouraging Cameron to show his feelings and encouraging Jules.

The only downside to the book was the layout. I read it on a kindle so it's probably fine in a physical book but there weren't any gaps or breaks in the story. It would go straight from one chapter to the next with no breaks which made reading really tricky.

Along with this the dialogue was all grouped together so sometimes it wasn't clear who was talking which made it difficult to read at times. I haven't had any issues on my kindle before but I have seen a couple of others mention it too.

Thank you to NetGalley, Escape Publishing and Georgia Moore for the early review copy

Although Jules no longer loves her job, she refuses to take risks after her last attempt left her heartbroken. Cameron has also suffered through a nasty breakup, one bad enough to send him from Sydney to Canberra.
These two colleagues who've only ever communicated over the phone are sent to a conference in Sydney at the last minute. Away from their workplace and coworkers, they start a conference fling, a one four night stand.

I enjoyed this one so much! I love how much they liked each other before they'd even met. Set over the course of a week long conference, we see Jules throw together a last minute presentation and Cameron facing his old coworkers. Their communication needed work but the boy was clearly very stressed about the whole situation. I did love his meddling sisters and Jules friends back home. I can't wait to see more from Georgia in the future.

3.5 / 5

I love supporting Aussie authors!!

A fun, easy to read Aussie workplace romance set in Sydney. Albeit quite predictable, it's the perfect read for summer, for after reading something super dark and heavy, or if you're just into a fun romance! The characters were likeable, the storyline and plot were pretty unique to what I've previously read, and I love that you can really visualise the locations (I think being Australian is a bonus here). However one thing that irked me is what happens in the late stages of the book, as it's a big book idk for me!

One more thing is the formatting of the book. I reallllly hope it has a final stage edit before publication because it very much looked like a high school essay before editing and changing the font to Times New Roman...

Bottom line: a great debut and support Aussie authors!

Thank you NetGalley & Escape Publishing for the ARC in exchange for feedback & a review.

I loved the alternating POV's. It was really nice seeing it unfold from both Cam and Jules perspectives. But I didn't love that it was written in third person. But once I got used to it, I actually really enjoyed it.

Overall, this was a really well written workplace romance that I truly enjoyed!!! The characters were all fantastic, the setting was great and it has just the right amount of spice to hook you in!!

Thank you to Netgalley, the publisher and the author for the opportunity to read this book.

Four Night Stand- (some spoilers)

This book was so FUNNY some moments I just laughed out loud esp the interactions between Jules and her friends. Overall it was an enjoyable and entertaining to read. Both characters had to overcome personal obstacles that prevented them from moving on in their lives. I also loved Camerons relationship with his sisters. I. saw growth in his character (even though it was short amount of time this book covered.

About two work colleagues Jules and Cameron- both having experienced bad breakups from their previous relationships decide to have a "no strings attached" relationship during their work conference. Jules -who works in the IT Department -has had a crush on a mysterious coworker whom she has never met face to face. When is has to go to a work conference and present on behalf of her coworker who. is out on maturity leave she is informed she will be attending the conference with Cameron and finds out quickly he's the person she had a crush on. After getting advice from her friends/roommates- Jules decides instead of putting pressure on herself to pursue her feelings for Cameron she brings up the idea of hooking up. during the conference.

Cameron who recently moved and started to work for the company has also had a crush on the mysterious IT help desk employee. When he finds out that it's Jules- the women he has to attend the conference with- he does not want to face the same issues like he did at his last job. His goal for the conference is to prove himself to his colleagues from his. previous job after abruptly leaving due to his relationship with a coworker. Although initially reluctant he does agree to fling with Jules.

I really liked Jules and Cameron. I liked that Jules had the unwavering support of her 2 best friends and that you see her grow as a woman, learning to step outside her comfort zone, ask for what she wants and take chances, even when it felt scary. I liked Cameron too. He was a good man, just too stuck in his own head and caught up in the past. I wish his emotional quotient had been better. He came off as quite immature at times and it was difficult to reconcile that with him being a successful, independent marketing businessperson. In terms of story, there was enough emotion to believe the pair were falling for one another, though the strong sexual component somewhat overshadowed the quieter moments of connection. I found their inner monologues a bit repetitive, and the power struggle between logic and desire too frequent for both characters. The story began to feel like a collection of anxieties and avoidance between 2 sexually compatible people. On a personal note, the author leaned into describing how the characters were feeling physically way too often. It was distracting to me how many times they had feelings in their chest or bellies. I found myself wondering how the MCs could function as humans if every thing they felt manifested in a physical way.

***Thank you to NetGalley, Escape Publishing and Georgia Moore. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book. All opinions are my own.***

Wow! This book knows how to engage a reader! First few pages in and I was hooked and smiling and couldn’t wait to see what happens!!
I loved the dynamic between Jules and Cameron, they were the absolute sweetest and I feel like I know them like real people!
Some parts were completely crushing and heart racing, other parts filled with so much romance and spice!
I could not flick the pages quick enough!
Every character in the book was beautiful and I thoroughly enjoyed this book! So so good!!!

This was a really fun read! I love supporting Aussie authors, so when I saw Georgia's new book on Netgalley I immediately requested it.

I love when books provide the perfect escape from reality, which is what this was. Jules and Cameron are work colleagues, but in different departments. When Jules' boss is away on maternity leave, she is volunteered to go to a conference in her boss's place. Her conference companion? Cameron, the man with the beautiful voice that she often helps with IT support.

I enjoyed Jules coming out of her shell and really enjoying herself! The dynamic between Jules and Cameron was also really fun and a bit spicy! The side characters, especially Cameron's sisters, were outrageous and fun.

Thank you to HarperCollins/Escape Publishing for an e-arc of this one, all opinions are my own.

A cute, feel good romcom! Very easy and quick read, likeable characters and some very steamy moments!

Thank you Netgalley and Escape Publishing for an advanced copy of this book!

**This has nothing to do with the rating, but it is something that annoyed the shit out of me** The Kindle version was not user friendly. There was no table of contents page, actual page numbers, or a clear indication of a new chapter. I would literally be in the middle of the page and a new chapter would be starting. That alone did make me want to stop reading, but I ignored it so I could finish the book and provide an honest review.

On to the review... My feelings about the book are neutral. I didn't love it or hate it. I personally didn't pick up on any romantic chemistry between Jules and Cameron, but I did enjoy the sexual chemistry between the two. My biggest issue was the lack of communication skills, especially Cameron's. I hate when adults cannot communicate properly. It makes no sense that at this big age, people don't know how to articulate how they feel about another person. I finished it in one sitting, but I probably wouldn't read it again.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an early copy of this book! Below is my honest review.

Rating: 2.5 out of 5 stars

Summary of the plot:

Cameron and Jules work for the same company, different departments. Cameron always seems to have technology issues, so he often calls Jules (who works in IT) for help. Over several months (before this book begins), they’ve been talking to each other over the phone. One day, they’re both sent to a 4 day conference, thus forced to spend time with each other. Once they find out how the other person looks like, they instantly become attracted to each other.

So they agree to a fling (sorta) for the entire time at the conference. Of course, they develop feelings for each other, but they can’t be together due to miscommunication reasons (more so the guy’s fault) and personal reasons.

Thoughts:

I feel like this book was a pretty standard romance novel. Nothing completely wowed me, nor did any of the characters peak my interest.

I felt little chemistry between Jules and Cameron outside of physical attraction. Most of the time, they’re having sex or talking about sex. Sometimes they have conversations outside of sex, but that was pretty uncommon.

Personally, I like when there’s another plot outside of the romance, such as work conflicts or family problems. This book did not have any of that, which made the characters kinda boring. It just seemed like their lives were about their relationship status and how much sex they were getting. Even the side characters enforced that concept. Any time the side characters were talking to the main characters, it was 99% of the time about their sex life.

I also had an issue about Cameron being upset for “being used for his body” by Jules, but his lack of personality really doesn’t give much for Jules to work on…. because like I said, they pretty much only ever have sex.

Overall, this was an okay book.
