Review: The Boyfriend Experience by Carly Phillips & Erika Wilde

Review of The Boyfriend Experience by Carly Phillips & Erika Wilde


THE BOYFRIEND EXPERIENCE

When Evie needs a date to her family's Fourth of July weekend, her friend tells her about the new Boyfriend Experience app. Eric is less than thrilled when a notification from the Boyfriend Experience appears on his phone, considering he didn't even realize the app had been installed on his phone. And he's even less thrilled when he finds out his friend Dylan was behind the little prank. But somehow he's convinced to show up to their first meeting, and cannot believe his eyes (and his luck) when Evie turns out to be sweet and gorgeous with curves that take his mind to dangerous places. But, as Eric and Evie get to know each other and forge a connection, the walls Eric has built around himself are in full force, and he deflects any attempts Evie makes at getting him to bare his soul a little. A tragedy in his life has left him convinced he can't, won't, ever know love, so he doesn't even want to attempt anything beyond casual. Will Evie be the woman to thaw his heart and break down his walls?


Surprisingly and beautifully emotional, The Boyfriend Experience checked off all my must-haves for the best romances: layered, lovable hero and heroine with palpable chemistry, moving, engaging story line, and a great secondary cast. Whenever Carly and Erika cowrite their stories, I know I'm in for a treat, and once again (as always) they've written a story that will stay with me even now that I'm done reading. I can't wait for more from them!

Coming back to my small Wyoming hometown was supposed to be temporary. I only planned to stay long enough to help my ailing mother and sort through the mess of my family’s old belongings. Instead, I somehow ended up living in Evan Ricci’s house. The single dad now owned a bunch of properties and one of them was the place I’d rented. He’d taken it off the market and moved in before I got there. I just never got the memo. Unfortunately, there was no other place in town available, so Evan let me stay. Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
