Catching up on past reviews with this delectable Valentine’s Day romp fest! Perfect Match is a novella that I constantly think about ever since I read it back in February. Packed full of steam, this opposites attract, voyeuristic novella is one that even the IRS can’t get enough of.

They couldn’t be more different, but wild-at-heart (and in bed) Rose and sweet-but-square Tyler have to make it through a romantic Valentine’s weekend to win the prize at the end – all while proving they’re certainly, definitely, really not the perfect match the dating app proclaims them to be… right?
Rose
I went to my bestie’s over-the-top Valentine’s Day event alone, and when the first person I meet is straight-laced Tyler, I know I’m leaving alone, too. He’s all buttoned-up with nary a tattoo in sight, and he does math…for fun. In other words, definitely not my type. But when a dating app proclaims him my Perfect Match and offers up a pot of prize money if we spend a romantic weekend together, complete with an all-expenses paid luxury hotel and couples activities galore, I don’t need love as a motivator–that money will help save my fledgling, and failing, graphic design business. Now Tyler is looking at me like I’m the perfect box of chocolates, talking about indulging in one last fling before he settles down. Suddenly, I’m thinking Mr. All-Wrong-For-Me might be the perfect Mr. Right-Now.
Tyler
I went to a Valentine’s Day singles’ event looking for love and left with Rose, whose vivacious attitude and sunset-hued hair sets her apart from every woman I’ve ever dated. Even if her curvy body stirs up a wilder side in me I’ve always kept under wraps, she’s definitely not what I’m looking for in a long-term partner… or so I thought. But somewhere between hiking with goats, getting our nails painted, and Rose’s lessons on new and inventive ways to share our heart-shaped bed, I’m wondering if she might be just what I never knew I always needed. But when she’s determined to part when our wild weekend is done, how can I convince her we might be a perfect match after all?

“If Tyler’s attention to my clothed body fills me with a power I crave, I wonder how he’d react to seeing more of me.”
This one was unputdownable and downright swoon worthy in all its glory. Who knew Taxes and a weekend with a stranger could be so sexy??
I fell head over heels in love with this story from start to finish, and even more so with Tyler and Rose. The chemistry between these two is chef kisses and honestly I was here for the entire learning experience. McLane does an excellent job writing this opposite-attracts romance and making it feel natural and authentic. It was such a pleasure watching our MMCs interact with one another and get closer to each other.
I honestly could rant and rave about this book all day, since I binged it twice in one day (its that good). The spice was spicy and the love was everything a romance junkie could ask for. Feel free to jump in my DMs and screech with me about this one because honestly I might just read this one for a third time…
Huge thank you to the author of an advance reader’s copy in exchange for my honest review!
