Book Description:
Yes. Yes, Rosie does have a crush on Isaac, her YouTube-famous boss.
Does she ever talk to him?
Absolutely not. Crippling social anxiety can do that.
But Rosie is nothing if not tenacious. Ignoring her friends’ advice to just talk to him already (Nope, that’s way too hard), she instead opts to pursue a virtual relationship with Isaac using a secret identity.
The plan is genius. Online, Rosie has social skills she’d never dream of having in person. She’s possibly even cool. If Isaac can just get to know her, he’ll see how amazing she is.
But then a spontaneous road trip throws Rosie and Isaac together, and their virtual and in-person lives collide. (Eleven hundred miles in a seventy’s era VW hatchback? What could possibly go wrong?)
Much to Rosie’s surprise, she doesn’t constantly humiliate herself. Conversation is easy, and their chemistry? It’s pretty much off the charts.
But every road trip is bound to hit a speed bump or two.
Will Rosie’s secret identity be the thing that brings them together? Or the thing that tears them apart?
Rorie's Review:
Isaac was a fun side character in "Love Redesigned" so I was happy to
find out he was getting his own story. He's got a very laid-back, easy
going personality. I actually think it would be pretty fun to work for
him. I can relate in some ways to Rosie. I don't have anxiety, but I am
very introverted and shy, so the idea of being in the limelight at all
sounds more like torture than anything fun.
You know what they
say about opposites attract though! (Well, Isaac and Rosie were
opposites in personality, but pretty similar in other ways. But you'll
just have to read the book to find out how...)
I'm always up for a
road trip - in fact, a southern states road trip is in my bucket list -
so I enjoyed that aspect of the story as well. It's fun to read about
characters who are nothing like you, but it's always nice to find
something in common with them so you can yell out "Yes! Me too!!" to an
empty room when you're in the middle of reading. OK, I haven't actually
done that. But I have come close.
This story is a sweet, easy
read. If you love feel-good happy endings, I highly recommend it. It is a
stand alone, but you get to know some of the other characters much
better in the first book, so I do recommend reading that one too.
