Harlow is in nyc for a meeting about her dating app she is creating while Andy is there for a meeting with teams he’s looking to sign for. They have quite the funny meet-cute and then run into one another again. She doesn’t realise he’s famous and he keeps it to himself. There is a lot of text message chats between Harlow and her colleagues/ friends, Harlow and Andy so if you enjoy those in books this does have them. Harlow and Andy have a lot of banter which I can imagine could come across cheesy at times but they match each other.
Thank you NetGalley for the ARC

Such a great read from Sara! Witty banter and beautiful chemistry. I enjoyed every moment of this book.

What a fantastic five-star read. This was a great story all about how one moment can lead to such great changes, and how sometimes you just have to go with your gut, even when that gut is mixed up after eating chicken from a truck!! Andy and Harlow will make you smile, her reaction to him is just perfect, and makes it all seem just so good and sweet. Sara Ney is a good author and one that will make you smile at all times.

Not Your Biggest Fan is my first book from this author, and it left me looking forward to giving her other books a try. Andy and Harlow meet in a cute and witty way in front of a food truck and ends with them spending the night together. Harlow doesn't know that Andy is a football star, and Andy feels like he can finally be himself. However, there were times when Andy came off as a little cocky, but I still enjoyed him and Harlow. I also enjoyed Harlow's friends and her dad; I think that he was one of the most memorable characters in this story because he made me laugh out loud. This story has a lot of back-and-forth banter, a little drama, a little spice, was a light and quick read with a HEA. I think romance readers will enjoy this story.

Boy meets girl. Boy doesn’t listen to girl’s advice about street vendor food. Boy regrets his choice. This is how Andy and Harlow meet and end up spending a whirlwind 24 hours together.

I enjoyed the dual POV and witty banter throughout the book. The story was an easy, quick read. That is both a good and bad thing. Although I enjoyed the book, I felt like it was too short. It was almost like the book ended just as it was beginning. I was looking forward to more of Andy and Harlow’s relationship. Both of them had friends that were part of the story. I would have loved for Andy and Harlow to meet each other’s friends, and see that dynamic. I felt like there was still more story to tell.

Thanks NetGalley and Montlake for the ARC in excellent form my honest opinion.

Note to self, do not eat meat on a stick from a street vendor!! Although for Andy it turn out to be the best, worth mistake he’s ever made!!

Andy and Harlow meet in the most unconventional way when she tried to save him from food poisoning! He didn’t listen and well the rest is history! These two from the start had hilarious banter and their connection though not instant was hot, heavy and made for the most hilarious moments!!

I love that we got to see the connection build between these two. We got to see who they were and see them work through their reservations and issues. I wish the ending would’ve given us a little more of them but it sets up for what I hope to be the next book, in a hilarious way!!

Ooh, the emotions are really strong in this book. I could not get enough of Harlow and Landon. They are so good together. They made my heart sing. The spicy moments between them are great but it was the emotional connection that they both bonded over that really won me.

Not Your Biggest Fan is a fun and entertaining stand alone from Sara Ney and is a perfect easy light read.

Andy and Harlow's story has so many great tropes from secret identity, insta-connection, one night stand turns more and best of all there is no third act break up. While Andy does play for the NFL, the story takes place during the off-season so besides Andy is "shopping" around for a new team, the football aspect of the story really isn't prominent.

These two have a chance meeting in an almost snarky kind of meet cute in Central Park- and then again when they bump into each other at their hotel. There is this fun little spark between these two and I love how sassy Harlow is, especially since she doesn't realize that Andy is any one other than a goofy yet sweet everyday guy that she happened to meet. They spend a whirlwind 24 hours together and in that time they realize how similar they are and they way they naturally fit together. Harlow's best friends/business partners had me giggling with their nonsense as they supported and encouraged Harlow while also having her back and making sure she wasn't in a bad situation but her dad, Big Steve- oh I could read an entire book on him alone!

Andy does have a bit of that too cocky and "don't you know who I am?" kind of energy about him- but when it's clear that Harlow in fact has no clue who he is, he takes that opportunity to actually have a day to be a normal guy. I actually love that he is the one that got attached and then pursued Harlow, because while she had a great time with Andy and she is actively looking to date, she was ok with the idea that they were a one time thing.

This story is light, fun and a little mild on the heat level but mostly its just a good time. Of course there are some little pops of drama just to shake things up but overall this is a great book if you want some sweet romance, a few laughs and an easy HEA.

I enjoyed this super cute and funny new adult book with the secret identity trope. A great way to pass the time smiling all the while. Our side character Big Steve is so much fun!

Thank you Netgalley, Authuor and Publisher for the opportunity to read this and share my thoughts.

The way I was so excited for this one.. it fell so flat, the characters had absolutely no chemistry, the banter wasn't cute it was just awkward. This one did not work at all for me.

3.5 🌟

I got through this book relatively quick, and enjoyed it!
the characters were met through a meet cute in a way I suppose?? it was a little funny hehe.

some parts irked me a little because their communication wasn't communicating?? Harlow was a bit ?? at times, Andy too..
and their friends weren't very helpful either.

but there was dual POV which made it more bearable to read

Oh Sara what the heck was this??

Your Biggest Fan follows Andy and Harlow who meet by chance in Central Park. Andy is a huge football star but seeing as Harlow is oblivious to all things sports related she just thinks he’s some crazy guy ordering the chicken kebab from a food truck. They hit things off and after a day date and not being able to say goodbye they spend the night together. Andy is immediately smitten and loves the idea that he can be normal with Harlow and Harlow doesn’t really know what to think but knows that she has some feelings for him. All is long distance fun until Andy thinks of signing with Harlow’s home team and goes to surprise her. And the truth of who he is finally comes out.

Honestly I did not feel the chemistry between these two at all. Their banter wasn’t cute like other Sara Ney couples. It felt stunted and weird. Andy acted like the truth of him being a major star athlete should be accepted in two seconds with no issues. I think he barrels over Harlow’s feelings a lot and expects her to just accept him being in the national spotlight and expects her to be cool with being in the media as well, it was wild.

I usually love the fun that Sara brings to her books but I was so put off with this one and the misogynistic tones of it. I won’t write her off completely, I’ve been reading her for a long time and this is the first time I can remember not liking her book. Hopefully the next one is back to her usual quality. Thank you to Montlake for providing me with an eARC in exchange for an honest review!

Oh how I devoured this book! First, characters that are from my city?! Love that! But the banter Ney writes between the MCs is hilarious and feels real. Within the first chapter of this story, I was hooked and could not put my kindle down. I love when a book can make me giggle and smile from the situations that occur and this book is chock full of all sorts of feels!

I really enjoyed this story!

The book had a good storyline that was strong and well planned out.

I found that the book was well written and I liked the character development.

Big town boy, small town girl - romantic and sexy

It is 4 stars from me for this one - highly recommended!

I really liked this book! The pacing just everything. I hope to see more from this author in the future! Thank you for the ARC

This was my first novel by Ney and it was interesting. I enjoyed the plot, but I don’t think the writing was my style.

There is a lot of witty banter back and forth between Andy and Harlow, which can be exciting. However, sometimes their conversations were very mundane and could have been eliminated.

I just wanted to point out a major issue the author made. Now, I’m from Wisconsin and I’ve been to Green Bay more times than I can count. It’s not a small town by any means, with over 100K people living there. Not only that, Harlow hates football? Not only is that NOT common in Green Bay (pretty much a sin), but in the state of Wisconsin as a whole. We are raised in Packer gear and Cheeseheads from a young age. Also, we got a new quarterback last year (just saying).

Now, I didn’t let that play into my rating of this novel, since I know not everyone reading this book is shouting Go Pack Go every Sunday night. But I still wanted to mention it since it did irk me.

I also just felt like it took forever to get to the point. By the halfway mark Landon still wasn’t even in GB yet. There were just a lot of texts back and forth between him and Harlow. And when Harlow found out Landon’s occupation she wasn’t very smart (chapters 22 and 23). It seemed overplayed and could have been written better.

I think a lot of people who love a good romance will enjoy this novel. It just wasn’t my cup of tea. There’s not much football though.

My only complaint with this book is that it wasn't longer. The way Harlow and Andy met was hilarious. Seriously, who orders chicken skewers from a street vendor in New York?

Harlow is a strong-willed girl who isn't afraid to speak her mind, and I love that. Andy is just trying to live a normal life, which is almost impossible for a star NFL player. I'm a sucker for a romance with a great meet-cute, and this one was it.

I stayed with a smile on my face and chuckling at the banter and antics of these two. Not to mention their friends and family. And the spice was *OH MY*. 🔥 I wish there was more to the story, but it was awesome if you're looking for a super quick, fun read or something to help you unwind.

Adorably hilarious! This is the first book I’ve read by Sara Ney…it will not be my last!!

Harlow and Andy’s meet-cute had me LOLing, especially Andy’s aftermath. The supporting characters were equally entertaining. I hope we see more of Harlow’s friends in future books.

If I had one complaint, it would be the super accelerated pace of their relationship. It seemed to happen overnight, but it is longer than that. We just don’t get to see a lot of what happened after their NYC encounter before Andy visits in Green Bay.

Overall, it’s a definite thumbs up from this reader!

Not your biggest fan is a super light and fun novel to read. I think it was a super fresh book, in certain parts very far from the drama that one might expect (and that I expected all the time for it to appear and it never appeared! I loved that).

Our female protagonist is very funny and is quite out of the ordinary from what I usually read. It's quite inta love, and I don't think I'm much into those books, but this was a comical, romantic story that let me clear my head.

Don't look for a lot of drama, a lot of PLOT... it's just to read.

Thanks Montlake for the ARC I read on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Not your biggest fan by Sara Key is sport romance perfection!

She's an app creator that helps others find love and he's a football player. Harlow and NFL player, Landon couldn't be more different from each other but as luck would have it, the universe and karma has plans and so they run into each other. often and repeatedly after making a bet and connect emotionally and romantically. I really enjoyed the book and it was fun and steamy and charming. It has that small town charm, quirky accidents and funny moments and lots of chemistry. I thought the story was fun, unique and easy to read and fun to enjoy.
