A proposal . . . ? Not everyone wants one . . .
When freelance writer Nikole Paterson goes to a Dodgers game in LA with her actor boyfriend, the last thing she expects is a scoreboard proposal. Saying no isn't difficult - they've only been dating for five months, and he can't even spell her name correctly. The hard part is having to face a stadium full of disappointed fans . . .
At the game with his sister, Carlos Ibarra comes to Nik's rescue and rushes her away from a camera crew. He's even there for her when the video goes viral and Nik's social media goes crazy. Believing that neither of them are looking for anything serious, Nik embarks on an epic rebound with the handsome doctor, filled with food, fun, and fantastic sex. But when their glorified hookups start breaking the rules, will they be brave enough to admit what they're really feeling?

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
This delightful, facepalm-inducing novel begins with Jasmine Guillory’s heroine Nikole going to a Dodgers game with a man she doesn’t want to marry. So of course he proposes, and the whole horror show is shared via Jumbotron with a crowd of 45,000. As she did with her winning debut, The Wedding Date, Guillory puts a wonderfully contemporary twist on the feel-good rom-com. She’s canny and clever about summoning shockingly familiar relationships and problems. You’ll feel you’ve met Nikole’s friends before—and maybe even had their conversations or their lives.

Beach read
Easy read
Nothing happens!
I was so excited to read this book, knowing it was a Reese Witherspoon book club pick, but was left so disappointed. Nothing happens! Without a major plot line or twist I would have at least hoped for complicated and intriguing characters. Unfortunately not. What a shame.
Terrible and disappointing
I only read this book because it was recommended in Reese Witherspoon’s Book Club which is normally on point but I was extremely disappointed. It wasn’t just that the book was bad, it was as though it was the book equivalent of a child sitting on their bedroom floor playing barbies and trying to force Ken and Barbie together in mock passion. Yet I think a child would have more imagination. The writing was juvenile, the characters had no personality or depth and the dialogue was stiff and really hard to believe in real life context. I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt given it was her second book but they got worse from there.
