Just My Type

Ummm... hello? Is anyone there? This book. I just don't know what to say. It's most definitely another winner from Sivec. I am not sure what to say that I haven't said before.The banter between these characters is life! I laughed so hard every single time. They are snarky, confident, entertaining. A troop of kick-butt characters who entertained me from start to finish.As in the past, Sivec leaves us with reader's blue balls. Dragging out the inevitable until the reader is ready to combust from the sexual tension. I feel like this is her new thing. She loves to torture her readers to the point they are begging for the sexual relief of her characters just as much as they are.I swear, after each of Sivec's books, I am left obsessing over something. This time it's a pet. I want that pet so very badly thanks to Sivec's telling of what a wonderful pet it would be to have. The only thing is, I need to move to another state to legally own one. Thanks Sivec. Thanks a lot!Personally, I wanted a little more from the resolution in this book. I wanted a little more torture and some more family from White Timber, but I was still happy with what I got. This book is going to be another hit people will be quoting for a while.

I will begin by saying that I love this author and her books. But I honestly could not finish this one. The constant sarcasm, #$it mouth name calling, ugh I had enough. Ember was very very immature and annoying unlike Brooklyn. I like funny, humorous books once in a while especially after reading a book full of angst but this one was just really annoying. I couldn't finish unfortunately.

The sample of this was cute enough that I went ahead and bought it, but unfortunately those few pages were the most stellar in the book. It quickly deteriorated into more f-bombs per minute than a gangsta rap number, which is less earthy and honest than distracting. The pushy leading man's "war hero" status didn't ameliorate his refusal to treat the leading lady (a financially struggling single mom who is technically his employee) with any professionalism--rather, he smirks at her requests to keep their interactions professional with a "she's-in-denial-about-how-much-she-wants-me" attitude. There's a similarly obnoxious best friend who keeps urging her to "just get laid" rather than being supportive. The constant sexual innuendos and referrals to the leading man's dick don't do anything to build sexual tension; as a result, the love scenes are so boring that I pretty much skipped over them. Add to that a completely inappropriate sexual encounter at a 5-year-old's birthday party (ewww), and I was over it halfway through the book. If it hadn't been past the 7-day limit, I would have returned it; instead, I skimmed through the end and got it over with as quickly as possible. The premise is cute, but it just doesn't deliver.

I’ve told Tara to seriously stop going through my life and putting it out for the world to read but she isn’t listening to me!! Buuuutttt it does make for a great read.Ember is a 30 something (ladies like us never reveal our age) single mother whose been screwed over by her ex husband. Hmm that sounds super familiar 🤔. After an eternity in vagina years, she sorta meets someone. Someone she knows only as poop mouth. Poop mouth loves the color burnt hole and baby oil. When a glitch in the system releases her notes and her information, Ember gets the surprise of a lifetime! What she gets is someone with a sense of humor who is a jerk all at the same time. He’s perfect I know!!! Baker (what a stupid name) finds himself smiling for the first time in months when he reads Ember’s notes that he accidentally got. He must email her right away and give her a good tongue lashing (that literally happens later), figuratively speaking. What we get is comedy gold and I laughed more times then I can count. Tara never ceases to get me to laugh and catch feelings all at the same time. I’m so happy we got to revisit this world and I loved having Brooklyn back to give her awesome advice. I hope she writes a million more stand alones in this series. I’d gobble them all up, much like Ember gobbles, well you know.She gobbles Reeses you pervs!!

This has easily become one of my favorite Tara Sivec stories and also one of my favorite reads of this year so far. It doesn’t surprise me since Tara is one of my unicorn authors and there’s yet to be a book I haven’t enjoyed from her. I couldn’t stop smiling, laughing, swooning. The sarcasm and banter were funny and witty and sweet as hell.I never thought anyone would ever come close to Carter from Tara’s Chocolate Lovers series but I gotta tell you that Baker is now tied with him. And Ember! I flippin’ loved her just as much. And now I’ve totally got a girl and boy crush - I don’t know who I love more honestly <le sigh>. The chemistry between Ember and Baker was intense and I couldn't help but root for them from the beginning. Sometimes when two characters are alike the story feels stale and boring but that wasn't the case with these two. They each played off the others sarcasm and low blows resulting in both panty-melting and laugh-out-loud moments.I really don’t know what else to say other than READ THIS BOOK! A super easy and quick read that will leave you feeling so happy. Everyone likes being happy, right? Well then go read his book. Oh! Also, I can’t wait to read about Dax next. That is all.

This story would have been cute but the language as is the Lord's name in vain in just about every page. I kept on thinking it would be less as I read on but unfortunately that wasn't the case. I just didn't want to finish it. It's a shame that the author doesn't think that is offensive to people. I won't be buying another book from this author

Ember is a single mum, trying to find her way as a newly divorced woman. Baker is a war veteran who lives to work. When a computer glitch allows them to connect with one another, things go from worse to better.This is my first Tara Sivec book and I have to say I loved it. I was laughing from start to finish and there’s enough angst to keep it interesting. The only issue I had with this story – and it is a minor one - is that I wanted to know what happened with the interview at the end.The way Ember and Baker meet is funny. Or I should say that their first interactions are funny. Luckily, they share a similar sense of humour and Baker isn’t easily offended. In fact, he finds it refreshing to have someone insulting him. I loved how cute this couple was together. I also loved the pet Ember buys her son. It really adds to the story. Little additions like that, make a good story even better in my opinion. I hate spoilers, so you won’t find any here. I’ll just say that you won’t be sorry if you give ‘Just My Type’ a go. Go read and enjoy.

Loved this book! I've not read a book by Tara for ages, I forgot how great her books are so I definitely won't leave it as long next time! The characters were great, brilliant writing, laugh out loud moments as well as hot swoony moments! Loved this story and how easy it was to read and to get complete sucked into it from the start! Highly recommend this book and will definitely be reading more of Tara's in the future!

Once again Tara delivers another hilarious book from the first to last page I was crying with laughter, the banter between Lincoln and Ember from the start is so funny the emails they send each other have you howling with laughter throw in an 8 year old son and his very unusual pet hedgehog JR (when you read it you will find out what is stands for) Lets just say Ember is having a really hard time trying to adjust to her new life in Chicago and wants to go back home to Montana, but once she gets the emails from Lincoln her life takes a turn for the best, I don't want to give to much away so please read it to find out more i promise you won't be disappointed at all.

I'm not to the end of this book yet but I'm more than happy to review it because I'm loving the writing. I am at the 80% mark so not to much left. I cant tell you how much I've laughed ot loud and Ron Jeremy way a real bonus!! I'm not going to give anything away but if you love a hot guy and gorgeous funny single mum with great humour and idiot ex then this book if for you. I would give it more than 5* if it would let me.

I forget in between books just how much I love Tara Sivecs books! The sense of humour, the sweetness, the shear fun whilst still sharing a life/love story is amazing. All I can say is don't read this book in public - you'll laugh out loud, belly laughs that has tears streaming, you'll cry with Ember and separately with Baker, the steamy scenes will leave you flushed, and the topics not sorted will leave you shedding a different tear. Loved it, try it, pick up Ms. Sivecs whole back catalogue you won't be sorry
