Adorkable
This is my first book by Emory Weste, and I'm so glad I found this author because I thoroughly enjoyed this book so much. This is book 5 in the series of interconnected standalones, and I already have plans to read the previous books.
This book revolves around Oli and Dean. Upon meeting these guys, you'd never think they would make a good match, but they were perfect for each other and absolutely adorkable. I just loved how their story developed and built up slowly. We have Oli this big ball of positive sunshine living his most unapologetic self life. Then we have Dean. He's super difficult to get to know with how guarded he is and plans ahead, so being impulsive is not in his wheelhouse. This made for a great dynamic, bringing balance to one anothers lives.
This was such a feel-good, fun, sweet story. That gave me all the feels while alse being funny and entertaining.
