Both Max and Charlie had suffered major romantic blows, and were leery of new relationships. While Max became a cynic regarding all things romantic, Charlie was still buying into the idea of "the one". When their paths cross, there was a lustful attraction, but the more time these two spend with each other, the more they begin to think there could be more.
What I Liked:
• I love slightly broken characters, and these two had a lot to overcome. Both were left with gaping wounds from their previous romances, and it was really special watching them slowly close as their friendship grew.
• The interactions between Charlie and Max were fantastic. I really enjoyed their banter. They played off each other quite well, and it was often fun and sexy. But it wasn't all fun and flirty. These two actually took time to get to know one another, and there were a lot of sweet, tender, and heartfelt moments shared between them too.
• Charlie and Max had great families. I really liked the way Meader worked them in, because their parents were pretty adorable.
• I always love a hero, who goes from cad to disney prince. I am not sure if Max was a cad through and through, but I liked that he unveiled that hidden softer side to Charlie, because that Max was the Max worth knowing better.
• Meader did a great job introducing us to Max's partners. They had a fun bromance going on, and I am eager to get their stories.
Overall:
I really enjoyed Max and Charlie's story. It was fun and humorous, but also very heartwarming. There were tons of laughs, smiles, and even some happy tears.
