Description
The movie star and the dog groomer are one kiss away from the perfect love story. That’s the hiccup in a warm and witty romance by the bestselling author of Roommaid.
The meet-cute award goes to dog groomer Juliet Nolan. It’s one of Hollywood’s biggest nights when she volunteers as a seat filler and winds up next to movie heartthrob Noah freaking Douglas. Tongue tied and toes curling in her pink Converse, she pretends that she doesn’t have a clue who he is. It’s the only way to keep from swooning.
She’s pretty and unpretentious, loves his dog, and is not a worshipping fan. No way Noah’s giving up on her, even if his affectionate pursuit comes with a bump: Juliet has a pathological fear of kissing and the disappointments that follow. What odds does romance have without that momentous, stupendous, once-in-a-lifetime first smooch? Patient, empathetic, and carrying personal burdens of his own, Noah suggests a remedy: they rehearse.
The lessons begin. The guards come down. But there’s another hitch they weren’t betting on. As for that cue-the-orchestra-and-roll-credits happy ending? It might take more than practice to make it perfect.

Sariah Wilson is the bestselling author of ROOMMAID (October, 2020) as well as several bestselling romance series, including End of the Line (THE FRIEND ZONE, JUST A BOYFRIEND); Lovestruck (#STARSTRUCK, #MOONSTRUCK, #AWESTRUCK); Ugly Stepsisters (THE UGLY STEPSISTER

She has never jumped out of an airplane, has never climbed Mount Everest, and is not a former CIA operative. She has, however, been madly, passionately in love with her soul mate and is a fervent believer in happily ever afters—which is why she writes romance. She grew up in Southern California, graduated from Brigham Young University (go Cougars!) with a semi-useless degree in history, and is the oldest of nine (yes, nine) children. She currently lives with the aforementioned soul mate and their four children in Utah, along with two cats named Pixel and Callie, who do not get along. (The cats, not the children. Although the children sometimes have their issues, too.)

I would like to take a moment to thank NetGalley, and Kaye Publicity for providing us with a copy of this book so we can provide you with this review.
This is such a cute and sweet contemporary romance. It was a fast read and you just fall in love with Noah Douglas and Juliet Nolan. The slow easy way that Noah helps Juliet fall in love with him is so sweet and cute. It is all so subtle as well you as the reader know its going to happen but the way that Juliet doesn’t realize it made me smile. The one thing is that you wonder for a long time when Juliets secret is going to come to light and when the other shoe will drop. But once its done you heart hurts for both of them but for sure more for Juliet. You need a cute love story to sit and read on a nice spring weekend this is the book for you.
I give this book 5 sweet kisses.
Happy Reading… Adri
