Just finished The Rom-Commers and wow, what a ride. Seriously, the ups and down in this book. I canβt even. Even though I usually read romance books with a lot of spice, I adore Katherine Centerβs books. The characters she creates jump off the page and come to life. This was no exception.
Emma is so strong and selfless. I instantly wanted to give her a hug. And I also kind of want to shake her. The poor girl has put her whole life on hold to take care of her dad, blaming herself for his accident and the loss of her mom. I really hate that she was manipulated into working with Charlie. Logan sucks. Heβs sneaky and tells half-truths and keeps secrets. Thank goodness he somewhat redeemed himself. But he was a pretty awful friend for a while.
It took me a little bit longer to warm up to Charlie. Heβs kind of a jerk for the first half of the book. I have to admit I was pretty nervous about his cough, though. As someone who is familiar with sarcoma and its recurrence, as soon as he started coughing I had to stop myself from skipping ahead to make sure he was okay. Itβs sweet how he takes care of his guinea pig. By the end of the book, I had heart eyes for him. π
I love this ode to romance and rom-coms and the joy they bring. Hands down one of my favorite books I’ve read this year. I would have liked it to be dual POV, but if you check out the audio, you get a little sneak peek into Charlie in one of my favorite scenes (the diving board!!!).
As always, I encourage you to read for yourself and see how you like it. I donβt think youβll be disappointed.
A huge thank you to the author, the publisher St. Martinβs Press, and NetGalley for sending me this amazing book for my review. Itβs on sale now and you can pick up your copy by clicking here
