Review / Release Blast: The Kiss (Playboy Pact #1) by M. Robinson

Release Date: February 16

From Wall Street Journal & USA Today Bestselling Author M. Robinson comes a new stand-alone romance with all the feels.

What happens when you make a pact with your boys to stay single and never fall in love?

Well, you get the Playboy Pact.

We were friends, her and I.
Best friends.
It was easy.
Simple.
Comfortable.
That was our dynamic.
We had a system.
An understanding.
An unspoken arrangement.

We were there for each other through thick and thin. We had an unbreakable bond. Nobody understood our friendship. Because a guy and a girl couldn’t just be best friends without emotions getting involved, right?

Without noticing, everything shifted, and I was experiencing all these new feelings…

Jealousy.
Possessiveness.
She’s mine.

Yeah…

For the first time in my life, Mila wasn’t merely a girl I trusted and hung out with on a regular basis.

She had become…
…the woman I was in love with.

MY REVIEW
Mila and Leo have been best friends for years, and ONLY best friends, not more. Until one day they were more. Now they're both left to deal with the aftermath of that choice to cross the line into more. Will it end happily? Or will neither know how to deal with this complication in their once easy going friendship?
I have to admit that when I saw the author's name on this, I wrongly assumed it would be full of angst like the previous writing of hers that I've read. Luckily for the sake of my heart (I've just finished reading and reviewing a tearjerker), The Kiss was lighthearted and fun with very low angst. Leo and Mila's (and the rest of his boys) banter is snarky and funny, and spot on for their ages (early 20s). I remember that age and it is definitely snark city at that stage of your life. The tension is obvious, but I appreciated that though they were hiding feelings, their friendship really was a solid best friendship that didn't have them pining away for each other and acting out because of it. The ease and the witty snark was the core of their friendship, and the romantic, sexual stuff was just icing on the already yummy cake of a great friendship. But Leo and Mila aren't the only great part of this, his circle of boys, with whom he made the Playboy Pact, are all interesting characters too, and I'm really excited to read their stories now.

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!
