Sometimes you just need a good laugh

Max Monroe is a fairly new to me comedy duo, that is quickly becoming one of my favourites. Now, I will admit that writing a review with a couple of people as the author, going by one name, is hard for me to be consistent with. I may mistakenly refer to “them”, “her” or any other multitude of terms. So, to make it clear from the start, I know they are two, writing as one, I just may not seem like it sometimes. Sorry, tangent…like bloody usual. Anyways, I friggin loved Banking the Billionaire.

If I was to take both of these characters, break them down, separate them and put them in other stories with other people, I probably wouldn’t like them. See, he’s a flirt and winks and smirks at everything. Thatch is also a goofball, prankster who is 35 acting like a 21-year-old. He’s a giant of a man, with good looks, a big bank balance, a big brain and a big…smile. Thatch loves women and makes a conscious effort to share that love frequently. So, Thatch is one of those guys where I may look at him in admiration for his…assets, but I don’t look at him for the long haul.

Now, let’s look at the fun-loving, flirty, reckless and stubborn heroine. She’s got all the right moves, a smoking hot body and a career that many women would envy. Photographing naked hot guys hardly seems like a job, but she’s made herself a name doing it and gets paid for it. Cassie also seems a little immature and takes her pranking very seriously. When I met Cassie, I knew that she was going to be a hard one to nail down, and may not be great with relationships.

So, we take these two characters, and magic happens. What started off as a joke on each other ended up being the real deal. There’s heat, heart and humour that shows their connection. These two were meant for each other. It goes to show, that everyone deserves their happy ever after and your perfect match is out there just waiting to be found.

What makes Max Monroe such a success (in my eyes), is their ability to make you laugh, cry, cringe, smirk and blush…all within one page. It’s a treat to read one of her books and you can’t help but make it an experience. I loved that I could go into my zone (the reading zone) escape reality for a little while and be entertained from start to finish. There is no “spot the errors” and no “please don’t cheat, please don’t cheat” running through my head. It’s just a fun journey towards love that takes a few turns, may involve a slippery slide or a mountain to climb and gathers momentum until the end.

Do I recommend this series? I sure do. Will I keep going with this series? Yeppers. Do I love the characters? Too bloody right.

Now, that I’ve had a wee bit of a squiz at Winnie and Wes, I can’t wait to get started on Scoring the Billionaire soon…ish.
