Blurb:

There’s only one thing I want to unwrap this year… my best friend’s roommate.

I’ve known Austin for years now, and crushed on him just as long.

He’s smart, funny, and hot enough to melt an ice cap.

I’d really like to stop fantasizing and finally visit his North Pole.

So tonight’s the night.

Charlotte and Austin are hosting the costumed Christmas party to end all costumed Christmas parties. Or perhaps the first to start the trend? Regardless, this is my chance to finally confess.

This year, I’m going to hang my stocking on Austin’s door… and hope it’s not just his heart I convince to grow three sizes bigger.


MY REVIEW

In this prequel, we find Chloe on the verge of telling Austin about her crush. She and recently become bestie, Charlotte, are at Austin's holiday party and they're "porching" so Charlotte can convince Chloe to go through with her confession to Austin. Charlotte knows now is the time for her to admit her feelings, because Austin won't remain single forever, and Chloe needs to put herself out there. But, in typical Chloe fashion, she's going back and forth on whether or not to confess, and her inner thoughts about why she wants to back out of agreeing to tell him, are funny as hell.

"Life would be easier if the powers-that-be assigned our life mate without giving us a say. Kind of like imprinting. It worked wonders for the wolves in Twilight, so I'm sure it's doable."

That line right there is classic Chloe, and why I loved her so much in her story, and why I love her even more here in hers and Austin's prequel.

The end of Tis the Reason is a bit sad, and gives the reader the perfect intro to the epic journey Chloe takes. The Dating Season series is, yes, a journey of Chloe and Austin's friends to lovers relationship, but more significantly, it's Chloe's journey from unsure young woman to a more confident, grown-up Chloe who figures herself out and knows she deserves the world, regardless of who the guy is that she picks to be her ride or die. I loved getting this little intro to her journey, and it makes me want to go read her whole story over again.

About Laurelin Paige
With millions of books sold worldwide, Laurelin Paige is a New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestselling Author. She is a sucker for a good romance and gets giddy anytime there’s kissing, much to the embarrassment of her three daughters. Her husband doesn’t seem to complain, however.

When she isn’t reading or writing sexy stories, she’s probably singing, watching Killing Eve or Letterkenny, or dreaming of Michael Fassbender. She's also a proud member of Mensa International though she doesn't do anything with the organization except use it as material for her bio.

She is represented by Rebecca Friedman.

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!
