I only realised part way through the book that I had already read the second book in this series.

This book is the story of Blair, who loses her boyfriend and job in the same day. This triggers her to start to rebel against her own list of things she shouldn't do, and the next morning she wakes up with a bad hangover in the bedroom of a man she's never met before.

A funny and entertaining read!

The perfect chick lit novel. It had everything - falling in love with your boss - check
looking to change your life for the better - check
great characters - check
humor and misunderstandings - check
loved it - check check check

This book was adorable, funny, sweet and romantic. Life always throws us punches. Things don't always go the way we planned, but we come to discover that the unplanned way is the best way.

5 stars
This is my first book from Camilla Isley, and it wont be the last.
I loved this book!
Blair lives her life through a series of "rules", but when her boyfriend of three years breaks up with her the same week she loses her job Blair loses her temper and decides no more rules!
I love the concept of this book, it's so funny and lovable. I loved the work dynamic between the characters and their banter.
Thank you to netgalley for providing this article in return of an honest review.

This was my first book by Ms. Isely and I'm now a huge fan! Loved the use of rom-com tropes and doing something fun with them. I think my only suggestion would be to amp up the heat level (I wanted to read a bedroom scene between our hero and heroine), and to clean up the formatting of the 'chat scenes' (which looked clunky and not modern). Looking forward to other novels by this author.

I received a free copy of I HAVE NEVER by Camilla Isley in exchange for an honest review. Blair Walker has lived her life according to her plan for success, which includes a strict list of dos and don’ts. When Blair loses out on her promotion, is fired, and is dumped by her long-term serious boyfriend all in one day, Blair decides to do all of the don’ts on her list. Set free to be messy, emotional, and badly-behaved, Blair begins to finally to live her life and not a list. When Blair embraces chaos, her happily ever after finally begins.

I liked this book. It was light-hearted, happy, and sweet. I was not my usual type of story, but it left me with a smile on my face. Enjoy!

This was really fun, I had a really great time reading this book. Now I'll have to check out the others in the series.

Blair Walker has a list of things her mother told her women never do. She carries this list in it's own special pocket in her purse everyday as a reminder. In a series of unfortunate events, Blair finds herself jobless and single. Feeling angry and sorry for herself, she decides that since following the list didn't better her life, maybe it's time to do the opposite. In a journey to mark off every single item on the list by doing it's opposite action, Blair finds herself with a job in Brooklyn instead of Manhattan, and a boss she's falling for, but who's emotionally unavailable. Navigating a new job and unrequited love aimed at your boss isn't easy.

This is the first Camilla Isley book that I've read. I have to say that I really liked it. The book was funny and sweet, almost reminiscent of a Hallmark movie, but in the best way possible. I absolutely loved Blair and her decision to hold her head high no matter how much she wanted to be swallowed up by the floor in some situations. My heart broke for her when Richard wouldn't reciprocate her feelings. Overall, I thought this was a great book, I definitely plan on reading the rest of the series.

Amazon review submitted, waiting for approval, will add link when available.

This was a super quick, cute read that I really liked. I laughed out loud so many times in this book! This was my first read by the author and will not be my last. It is the second book in the First in Love series, but it’s a standalone. I haven’t read the first one and still enjoyed this one.

I would probably qualify this more as a chick lit book. It’s not my usual genre and I haven’t read one in a few years, so I don’t remember if this is normal but, there was not a lot of descriptions or details about anything, unless it was talking about shoes or clothes (btw I would love to have her amazing wardrobe!). I really couldn’t tell you much about Blair, the main character. I loved Richard, the hero, but I had a lot of trouble with their lack of chemistry.

I enjoyed many of the supporting characters: Indira, Christian, Nikki and of course, Chevron, the dog! The ending was so cute. I think Nikki and Christian are separately getting the next books in the series and I will definitely be reading those. I would recommend this especially if you're looking for a quick read and a good laugh!

amazing light hearted romance read! The pace of this book is not too slow or too fast and the character seemed real and the conflicts doesnt look fake or made up or rushed!

Thank you to NetGalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

Chick-lit is not normally my cup of tea, but this was a quick read - light-hearted, funny and of course romantic. Just what I needed! I liked the concept of life events conspiring to overturn the way you've lived your life, and titling the chapters after the list of "rules" the heroine has decided to no longer abide by was clever. Having said that, the characters lack depth, but then that wasn't really the point of the book, was it?

I Have Never is a fun, light-hearted read that flies by. It tells the story of a woman who has always done the right thing and lived by a list of things one should never do, only to have her life come crumbling down around her. She decides to do the opposite of everything that’s on the list and see where life takes her. This leads to some interesting moments for her, and eventually down the path towards love. I read this in one evening; I was having too much fun reading it to stop in the middle. I will definitely be checking out the next (standalone) book in the series.

So,this story is about an employee and a boss who fall into a romance and the obstacles that prevent an immediate happy ending.Nikki, the heroine had a bad day that translated into her meeting her soulmate in a less than ideal circumstance.While I didn't feel the connection and couldn't fully buy into the romance, the story was compelling enough that,unlike most books I have read, I finished this one in just hours. This book was touted as a laugh-out loud romance but I truly only had one episode of that happening in the scene with Indira and the heroine's ex,the rest of it was building up to but fell short,eliciting smiles and anticipation only.The title was perfect for the story as it conjures up all kinds of scenarios,gets the readers' minds curious trying to figure out what the heroine would never do and what they would also never do.Would love to read a story about sassy Indira and also about the other occupants on the office floor - the lawyer and the psychologist.Loved the book,thanks Netgalley.

Kept me sucked into the story, and wanting more! I really enjoyed the story and am looking forward to reading more by this author.

Blair has a plan for the perfect life, and a list on how to achieve it. But when everything crumbles around her, she resolves to do the opposite of everything on the list. I Have Never is an fun, upbeat novel following Blair's decision to throw out the old rules. Will this be the way she achieves her dreams?

Loved this book! Thank you for the opportunity to read this ARC. I’m looking forward to reading my way through the rest of the series.
