RATING: READ IT
“Half my cousins were conceived by Boyz II Men.”
“And when you say conceived, you mean to the song.”
Max laughed. “Or do I?”
For a while now, I’ve been told that I need to read Rachel Van Dyken, and this weekend, I decided it was finally time—starting with The Consequence of Loving Colton, a book I was assured was laugh-out-loud funny and super fun.
And guys, they were right. It. Was. Hilarious.
I mean, it was also borderline ridiculous at times, but it brought to mind classic slapstick comedy, and I definitely had fun reading it. Colton + Milo were just . . . crazy. But good crazy. Happy crazy. Funny crazy. And maybe a little bit crazy, crazy.
It’s a friends-to-lovers romance, which is a favorite trope of mine, and the secondary characters are scene-stealers. Which bodes well for the rest of this series, because The Consequence of Loving Colton is just the first of four, meaning I have a lot of ridiculous-and-ridiculously-good reading ahead of me.
Honestly, if the coming books are as good as this ‘retro’ read {it was released in 2015—that’s how behind on my RVD reading I am!}, I’m in for pratfalls, horny grandmothers, accidental dunkings, a shrew or two and, Lord, who knows what else? Not me, not that I care.
If over-the-top, back-to-back jokes are your thing, then this is most definitely a book you want to get on your Kindle ASAP. If they’re not, can I encourage you to give this one a try nonetheless? It might not be constant laughs for you, but it’s a flirty, feel good story and a great escape from the real world for a few hours—and a recommendation I feel safe passing along.
“Kissing you is terrifying, breathing your same air makes my knees weak, when I’m around you it’s a tie between wanting to chase you down—or just kiss you until you can’t breathe.”
As of 04.03.2018, The Consequence of Loving Colton is available with Kindle Unlimited.
