Bea y Gib se conocieron muestras él la ayudaba a cambiar un llanta y no pensaban que se volverían a ver, hasta que se llevan la sorpresa de que compartirán habitación.

Disfruté de la lectura, todos los personajes me cayeron bien, me gustó la trama, pero hubo algo (que no puedo lograr decir que es) que hizo que no ne encantara al cien porciento. Por más que intento detectar que fue, no lo logro.


Gracias NetGalley por el Arc a cambio de mi honesta opinión.

Thank you to NetGalley and One More Chapter for this eARC in exchange for an honest review!
One Bed is a light read with great side characters and just the right amount of spice! Admittedly, I had a tough time getting into the story in the first handful of chapters, despite loving the setting and “only one bed” trope. However, once things really started moving, I fell in love with Bea and her spitfire of a godmother, Golly! Bea’s character development over the course of the story was awesome, and I enjoyed watching her stand up for herself in spite of her insecurity. Gib was not my favorite MMC - I found myself feeling really frustrated with him for his lack of communication and constant need to go into “fix it” mode - but his character did feel authentic. I really wanted to like him, he has quite a backstory and was plenty charming, but like Bea, I just needed more from him.
Overall, while this book did not check all of my boxes, it was a cute read!

This was a wonderful book! I really enjoyed reading this book. The plot is very well written and interesting, and the characters were well developed. I would definitely recommend this to other readers!

This was not my first read by this author, but this one was a miss for me. I couldn't connect with the characters at all. I really wanted to love this one but something was missing for me. The MMC was not my cup of tea, unfortunately.

This was NOT it for me, unfortunately. I liked the FMC Bea and enjoyed her arc/growth, but I found the MMC Gibson to be horribly rude. The story did not redeem him AT ALL and it made me so turned off by their romance that I couldn't even enjoy the spicy scenes. I'm sorry to say that I cannot recommend this book.

I requested to read this ARC based on the cover alone, I absolutely love it! A fantastic piece of Art and a perfect match to the title.

I enjoyed the story, which is pretty much what it says in the title, although there isn’t much of a story to follow it doesn’t lack in keeping you entertained. The last few chapters really sold it for me, as there was just so much more” more depth, more emotion, just more.

It’s a cute, slow burn, forced proximity that will either keep you as entertained as it did me, or you are looking for something more. But for me it hit all the right spots and I really enjoyed it.

Thank you to Netgalley and OneMoreChapter for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was a cute idea and a pretty easy read, but I didn’t really feel like the MMC had much depth other than “hot brooding man of mystery”. The resolution at the end was a bit lacking, I’m not sure why Bea accepted him back so easily. Golly was a fun character and I do love the “one bed” trope so I enjoyed that side of things.

The concept for this book is so cute and I was so excited to read this. Bea is a great main character who was easy to root for but I wish she had a bit more growth that went along with her. At times it was hard to continue reading because it felt like Gib had absolutely no depth, no motive, and unfortunately not much interest in Bea. Golly was a saving grace when she was in it but she was a minor character. Given the concept and the setting for the book I wish I could've enjoyed it more but the lack of chemistry between the two main characters made it hard to most of the time.

One Bed by Joss Wood. A new to me author that I decided the storyline sounded interesting and the setting. It was spicy but it just didn't grab me. For me it was just a okay book.

Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to ARC read♥️

Overall, it was a good story. I liked the concept, and the main character Bea. She definitely had her issues and insecurities, but I was still rooting for her, and was happy reading her growth throughout.

For me, I felt like Gib fell short with his personality and growth. I never felt like he really liked Bea as much as she liked him, and that vibe is not what I like in a book

It was a super cute storyline and I enjoyed it, but I would’ve loved this book a lot more if Gib had more to him and better feelings for Bea. I didn’t think the way he talked to her was redeemable in my opinion.

Unfortunately I had to DNF, the writing and plot was just not there unfortunately. I wanted to love this but struggling to keep in engaged and interested in the story line. I hope other readers enjoy it though.

GAH! Golly was just the best side character. Such a fun aunt. I was really so invested in her wild ways. .
On the other hand, Bea was okay and I enjoyed her slight growth. Gib on the other hand was not a likeable MMC for me. There was not much to depth to his character and he was honestly just mean, without any groveling.

If you enjoy one bed, forced proximity and a quick read, this is for you.

Thank you Netgalley and the author for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was a super cute story! I really enjoyed this book especially toward the end when it seemed to get deeper and more emotional. This book was not very spicy in my opinion, I mean there is some spice but it's very mild and not very detailed. I really enjoyed Golly and Reena as characters as well.
There were a lot of times at that end that I could really relate to Bea and her feelings. I think the author did a great job of sucking me in during the third act breakup.
I definitely recommend this book!

A fun enough forced proximity destination read, but the chemistry lacked for me. The main characters lacked the tension and build up I hoped for. Also the inner monologues got to be a bit much for me. I wished we got to know about their pasts in a way that flowed more and wasn’t just inner bitching about their pasts. Overall it was just kinda blah. The godmother saved this book for me, and she was a side note.

A cute romance read.

Golly was definitely my favorite character. She was eccentric and hilarious and honestly carried the story for me and was more what kept me reading than the main characters. The story was cute, but I struggled to connect to the characters and didn't entirely buy their relationship beyond the physical attraction. The FMC grew on me throughout, but I didn't find the MMC entirely likable.

A good read for someone who enjoys the "one bed" and forced proximity troupes.

Thank you, NetGalley for the ARC for review. My opinions are my own 💕

A delightful, slow-burn romantic comedy set against the stunning backdrop of a Greek island. Author, Bea, escapes to her godmother's cottage to shake off writer’s block, only to find herself sharing the cosy space with her childhood friend, Gibson—a charming yet undeniable red flag. With sun-soaked days and sizzling chemistry, this novel is a perfect mix of humour, romance, and second chances.

La trama estuvo entretenida, pero el estilo de escritura no me gustó, por lo que no llegué a disfrutar del todo el libro.

Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and the author for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

3.25/5 ⭐️

Overall I enjoyed this book! The setting, Bea’s internal dialogue and the spice were all main highlights for me, but I struggled with the romance a little bit. I felt that Gib didn’t grovel enough and while we did get some explanation of his past, I felt like there could’ve been a lot more in depth analysis about it before Bea just accepted his response and moved on. I would recommend this book to others but it just didn’t hit on all points for me unfortunately!

Thank you to NetGalley & OneMoreChapter for this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

Light-hearted, cute romance. Golly, the aunt was my favorite character. She was so funny and excentric. I want to read a book about her life! While I enjoyed this book, I was more invested in Golly than the main characters Bea and Gib.

This was such a cute an fun read! Great setting with great characters and a cozy storyline. Perfect beach book or something you'd take to a vacation.

Thankyou netgalley for the arc. All opinions are my own!
