“I had a smile on my face the whole time.”
~ Under the Covers
You know what’s amazing? When an author creates a story and characters that you enjoy so much that you can enjoy a trope you normally wouldn’t. No, no, no… I’m not talking about enemies to lovers because I gobble that stuff up. I’m talking about slow burn romance. It’s not a trope I seek out and it’s definitely one that can get on my nerves. But this whole series does it so well I don’t even notice until the end that it was.
In THE PROBLEM WITH HIM we finally get the story of newly executive chef Wyatt and his sous chef Kaya. I was dying to read this and I’m so happy it delivered what I wanted. Wyatt was sweet and sexy. He managed to soften those sharp edges around Kaya so well. I couldn’t get enough of them. Whether they were bickering in the kitchen or Wyatt was finally pushing his way into Kaya’s life. I had a smile on my face the whole time.
We get plenty of Kaya’s backstory in this book and I liked getting to know her better. But at the same time I wanted to see more of Wyatt’s backstory. We get some but I was greedy for more. I think the only thing that’s missing for me in this was getting some of Wyatt’s POV to satisfy me.
I am anxiously awaiting whatever Rachel Higginson’s puts out next. I always enjoy my time spent reading her stories.

I get easily distracted by pictures of sexy guys and have tons of book boyfriends.I keep all my alpha males chained to my basement and guard them fiercely.*Back off bitches*I like to see Jason Momoa as a lot of those boyfriends, because ….. mmmmmmm JASON.MOMOA!
I’m a part time graphic designer (yes, everything you see on UTC has been done by me), run my husband's business from home and on a good day I’m a self appointed superwoman (she who can do it all).I love blogging with my girls and I couldn’t do it any other way!My first love is everything paranormal, but in the past few years I’ve re-learned to love contemporary romance.Every once in a while I like to mix things up with a historical romance, a steampunk or an LGBT book.Because I need variety to avoid book slumps.I don’t always need an HEA although I prefer one, and I love authors that can rip my heart out and make me ugly cry.
