Blurb:
From New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Max Monroe comes a new standalone romantic comedy.
Lola
My name is Lola Sexton, and I’m a sex addict.
Okay…that’s a lie.
Truth is, I’m a serial dater turned dating and relationship columnist for The San Francisco Times. My readers call me Sex. Sex Says.
I love my job.
I love my life.
And I hate Reed Luca.
Reed
My name is Reed Luca, and I’m a liar.
Ironically, that’s the truth.
I’m 31, and my occupation is…well, complicated.
My favorite kind of woman comes in all shapes and sizes, but always has a big brain.
I’ve never hated anything.
Lola Sexton hates me.
Luckily, it’s a thin line between love and hate, and with my help, pretty Lola will only be able to straddle that line for so long.
If you'd like to use this "disclaimer" instead of the blurb in an effort to mix things up, we encourage that as well:

*Reed Luca is an asshole. No one wants to be his spirit animal.
**Okay. I wrote that. Maybe someone would want to be his spirit animal. I guess. Maybe. Sorry. (Not sorry.)—Lola

Review:
3 stars.
For me the plot was great, this book had a ton of potential and as long as I overlooked the things that annoyed me it was a good read.
Mainly the immaturity of the characters got me. There's a mention at the beginning of this book about the way the characters talk for being 30 somethings, that's all well and good but it was the fact that they both acted as if they were tweens that killed the book for me. I could get over the way of speaking and yes some of the behavior was fun loving but then it was countered by immature actions that made me think they needed to be grounded.
I loved that they actually did grow a bit, emotionally if nothing else.
I finished it but it just wasn't my cup of tea. Not every book is for every reader and sadly this one was that for me.
