Romance Schmomance
Written on Feb 20, 2019
I'll be honest, I had this book sitting on my kindle for weeks, nervous doesn't even cover what I was feeling about starting this book. Maybe I shouldn't have read the blurb because knowing that a cliffhanger was on the horizon, I knew Penny was going to give us all the angst and teasing before the end. Anddddd she definitely didn't hold back.
With the warning and all, it still hits you like a freight train ... not that I have any idea how that feels, but we all have active imaginations. As soon as I finished, I went looking for any sort of teaser that would appease my wait until SPACE comes out and well that didn't work because now I'm ten times nervous to read Space than I was Motion.
Mona is put in a position that she's completely uncomfortable with and for good reason. Pretending to be her sister, who she barely talks to anymore. And she's being babysat by her older brother's best friend, Abram. My curiosity spiked with all the characters involved; Mona, Lisa, Gabby (Lisa's best friend) and of course, Abram.
Abram, Abram, Abram ... the ever so smooth, completely fascinating, good-looking rockstar that's doing a solid for his best friend.
I honestly wasn't expecting the slow burn, but I was soooo there for it. It's been a while since I've read a good slow burn. Chemistry and curiosity really strikes deeply with Abram and Mona and I was just dying to see EVERYTHING unfold between them. But it looks like Penny intended to tease the crap out of us, which is understandable since we have two more parts to get through.
I'm such a fan of Penny's books, they're unique with a mixture of the familiar quirky humor that we'll see in all her books. It's absolutely addicting and I'll always be hungry for the next one. I'm sooo invested in this series and hope March gets here sooner!
