Description
Rebecca Chapman, a singer passionate about her craft, has never felt appreciated by her uber-professional family. When she’s selected to try out for a new reality singing show, it’s her chance to prove she can make it in the music world. All she has to do is get chosen by the network. Problem is, she needs to play an instrument for the audition in two months. And she can’t play a thing.
Amazingly, the solution seems to lie with Ian Ledger, the ultra-annoying co-worker she’s been at odds with since day one. Turns out Ian’s a skilled guitar player. He’s willing to teach her, but there’s a catch. He wants to win back his girlfriend at his sister’s wedding. And he wants Rebecca to help him.
Seems like a perfect solution. She gets the music lessons needed to secure her spot on the show; he wins back the girl destined to be his bride. Easy peasy. Except, during the series of ridiculous “fun” lessons and hours of arduous music practice, Rebecca’s feelings for Ian shift.
As the wedding nears, Rebecca doesn’t want Ian to succeed in his quest for love. But a deal is a deal. They both have dreams to chase. And a dream come true is everything.
Advance Praise
Leanne Treese is the Princess of Swoonworthy, The Queen of Slow Burn, and the High Empress of Toe-Curling, Heart-racing, Laugh-out-loud Rom Com Delight. Heartwarming and hip, Fun Lessons is no exception. I was all in with Rebecca and Ian from their meet cute to their well-deserved happily ever after, and I loved every minute of the journey. With her crazy flip flops and voice of gold, Rebecca is a free-spirited and flawed heroine to adore. And when seemingly straightlaced and uptight Ian unbuttons the top button of his polo shirt…and then some…all bets are off! Fun Lessons is as thoughtful as it is romantic, offering hope for a kinder, more tolerant world where friends become family, and families open their arms with understanding, acceptance, and love.

This was an easy, fast read with lots of laughs. (Hello, Mystery Bus Tour) I was rooting for Rebecca and Ian and concerned how they would overcome a deal of obstacles to get to each other.
Throw in a crazy Aunt Kimmy and Ian’s trans sister as lovable side characters that add even more to the story.
This is a low/no spice gem of a book featuring two unlikely people who someone find one another, 🏳️🌈 side character who can cook, POTATO CHIP OMELETS, sword fighting, and balloon animals.
A fun 5 stars from me!

Featured Reviews
Thank you NetGalley for gifting me a copy of this book.
Wow. This book was incredible! I absolutely LOVED Rebecca. Her personality and confidence was everything. And the fun lessons with Ian? So cute and funny at the same time.
It was easy to read, incredibly lovely and funny and I couldn’t recommend it more!
This was one of the cutest romcoms I've read in a long time. I found myself actually laughing at loud at some points. I also really loved that this contained characters who felt realistic and were dealing with real life circumstances. The characters were well thought out, complex, and likable. I recommend this book for anyone who is a fan of enemies-to-friends-to-lovers, as well as goofy/cute humor.
While this is the first book I've read by this author, Leanne Treese is probably going to become an auto-buy romance author for me. I loved this book so much-I cannot wait to read other books from her.
Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for providing an e-ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I read this book in one sitting! It was so funny, the MC's were likeable and the romance spot on. I connected with Rebecca and rooted for her. Ian was a great MC as well. The storyline was entertaining and engaging from the start. This was the first book I read from this author and I'm definitely going to read her other novels. Can't wait.
Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.
