Thanks to the publisher & Netgalley for the complimentary e-ARC. All opinions provided are my own.Jackie Lau’s Not Your Valentine delivered on the best of Valentine’s Day with so much of the good stuff: a grumpy heroine, a nice guy hero; some forearms lusting; a friends to lovers arc; steam that had me thinking in blush emojis. I ate this novella up! It’s fun & easy to jump into, even on a night when I didn’t feel like I could concentrate that well. There’s so much work an author has to do to make a convincing romance novella but Lau made it possible for me to how leads Helen & Taylor might change their relationship so quickly because of how she writes the care they have for one another as friends. There are some unexpected details thrown in too that I loved & might be new to me in a romance, including some labia insecurity and a 5’5” hero. Check this one out—it’s really great. 5⭐️. Out now!CWs: references to racism; reference to parental abandonment.
