New Release+Review: Sex and Other Shiny Objects by Lauren Blakely

Review

“ I received a review copy from author and voluntarily provided an honest review. This does not affect the opinion of the book or the content of the review.”

Peyton is given the opportunity to “test the sexy scenes” in romance novels. Bathtub sex, panty ripping, staircase sex etc. We’ve all read them and possibly thought about doing them in real life. For this task she enlist the help of her best friend, Tristan. The two of them have been kind of tap dancing around their feelings for one another for several years due to not wanting to lose the friendship which makes sense.

I really enjoyed this friends to lovers story. It had a refreshing premise. I really liked the whole reenactment of scenes from romance novels. Tristan and Peyton had good chemistry and I loved their banter and the story felt realistic. At times I wanted to shake sense into both of them for being stubborn and in denial but it was all worth it in the end. If you’re looking for a unique friends to lover romance, look no further!
