As far as Natasha Madison books go, it wasn't exactly my favorite, but there were plenty of moments I loved and enjoyed. I wish it was a bit longer, so the story was more developed. However, Mixed Up Love makes a for a perfect quick and sexy beach read.
Something that I really enjoyed was the banter not only between Hunter and Laney, but the other side characters. I like to categorize them as a security firm that are a bunch of frat bros. Tinder is very much a thing with all of them except maybe Hunter, but the entertainment is endless! Their thought process and decisions are a bit questionable and well a bit immature, but entertaining nonetheless. And apparently they have a serious issue with bro code. And that's just a completely different story on it's own.
Now you're probably wondering why Hunter wasn't my fave, he hashis moments and can be a complete romantic, a hot one, might I add. But being a retired Navy SEAL and now running his own security firm, safety is number one on his list. He has seen so much and has no problem telling Laney how she constantly lacks in her personal safety. I found it a bit irritating at times and rather overboard. He's overprotective to the max. And he's a bit creepy with his constant watching. But Laney didn't mine since as far as her previous relationships have gone, none have paid this much attention or doted on her.
Natasha Madison can do no wrong with her heroines, I have loved every single one that she has written so far. She definitely just let it all go and was rather enthralled with her blind date gone wrong. That whole situation was absolutely hilarious to me, it definitely goes down as one of my favorite parts in this book.
The chemistry is strong from the very beginning and it's a bit of an insta-love, but I don't care! Even with my mishaps about Hunter, I still enjoyed this very much!
