The Sweet Spot-Myers-Rom Com-Available Now

I’m a sucker for a good ol’ fashioned rom com. The Sweet Spot by Monica Myers is just…well, it hits the spot!

There are the usuals that go along with your typical rom com.

Driven entrepreneur woman has been burned by previous relationships and throws herself into work. She also has no social life. She just can’t deal with that and enjoys what she does for a living (more on that in a second)

Playboy/cad man with a reputation (and a long line of exes) gets tired of dealing with the crazy. He realizes he maybe needs to start changing his ways.

The two characters meet cute (in this case, meet unique) and…there ya go.

There was a lot to like about this book. Both Erin and Nolan feel “real.” There aren’t any hidden aspects that make appearances at odd times. Actions and reactions are relatable.

Erin’s job, making erotic pastries, is meant to be shocking. But honestly, it’s been done before. I don’t like to mention other authors’ books in a review, so I won’t. But there is a particular series that is one of my all-time favorites, and the main character has this same job.

That’s not to say it isn’t still funny The author in this case goes a bit over the top with Erin’s baking skills. It’s just that it wasn’t as shocking to me as it might be to other readers.

The author also did a good job with the annoying exes of both characters. Experience? Intuition? And I really like Alana, Nolan’s assistant. She needs her own book.

The only thing that didn’t really work for me was how looooong everything took, only to feel very rushed at the end. There are reasons that both Erin and Nolan have reservations about each other (most are legit) but then they’re making snap decisions?

It just felt like there was something missing that bridged everything together to get to the resolution at the end.

Regardless, The Sweet Spot was an engaging rom com. I will continue to look for books by Monica Myers.
