RRR presents... DATING LITTLE MISS PERFECT by Cassandra O’Leary - REVIEW + GIVEAWAY!


The dating world...
...we're all in it at some point in our lives, but some love it more than others.  The days of meeting new people face-to-face first are pretty much LONG gone, making way for the plethora of apps out there, so whether you like to swipe right, left, or send a like request, there's probably something for you.  Here's the hitch...how do you know what you're getting into?  I mean, you make a match, and seem to get on remarkably well, but what if the in person reality isn't all it's cracked up to be?  Or better still, what if it is?  😉  Ladies and gents, let's get between the epages of today's book of choice on tour with Rachel's Random Resources...



Dating Little Miss Perfect
by
Cassandra O’Leary


About the book....

On an anonymous online dating app, LittleMissPerfect meets HotAussie007 and it’s love at first click. In real life, a smart but spiky woman in STEM, research scientist, Dr Eden, meets a laid-back Aussie marketing manager, Finn, at the big pharma company where they both work in California. They're forced to compete for special projects funding, and both their jobs are on the line. 

Eden just wants to win at science and in life. It's not happening! She can't stand Finn's too-cool-for-school, nice guy act, or his delectable forearms that keep invading her space. While Finn is stupidly attracted to Eden, when she's not telling him off, he isn't free to pursue her. He's stuck in the worst position in his professional life, and doesn't see a clear way out. He can't tell her the whole truth about what's going on at work or in his personal life. . . or it could all blow up in his face. 

When they realise the truth about their online alter egos, dating is off the table. Can they ignore their inconvenient attraction, and work together to take down their unethical boss? Or will intense rivalry cause their IRL work lives and online love lives to collide and explode like a science experiment gone wrong? 

Note: Dating Little Miss Perfect is an updated take on You've Got Mail for lovers of online dating romcoms, with added science, cupcakes and old movie references! This new release from award-winning author Cassandra O'Leary is a stand-alone contemporary romance novel of approximately 97,000 words.

Alright guys, so there are a myriad of Romance stories out there to fit any reader's tastes, but don't you just love the influx of smart cookie romances? I mean, it's great to see STEM type reads for the kiddos, but I think it's equally wonderful to see them in adult stories as well because HELLO, attractiveness of the mind doesn't stop with our growth spurts! It's okay to be smart, show off that brain, and still be our beautiful selves! We don't have to dumb ourselves down for anyone because the right ONE will see us for all we're truly worth. Just like this HotAussie007...

Seeing the online flirtation in action was hilarious, yet so true because more often than not, we let another side of ourselves loose when we're not face to face. I wouldn't say it's our true selves exactly, but it's certainly a much freer version, and while this duo had their misses, in the end, they are matched perfectly...the Aussie and LittleMissPerfect. What an online user name duo! Thing is, I figured out very early on who each one of them were, and while I wouldn't have said no to it being kept a secret, it didn't ruin the story or the character connections. It just made you a little more omnipresent. 

So if you like an opposites attract story with smart characters, secret storylines that unfold as the main tale progresses, and uber cute moments of flirtatious fun, this just might be the PERFECT story for you!

RRR presents... The Love Theorem by Camilla Isley - REVIEW!


There's a whole lot of love going around today with THREE tours on deck to wet your bookish whistle. First up, Rachel's Random Resources and a Contemporary Romance you don't want to miss!


The Love Theorem
by
Camilla Isley 


About the book...
Are a rocket scientist and one of Hollywood’s brightest stars a match made in heaven or is it a catastrophe headed for a crash landing?

Lana loves four things: science, her cats, her friends, and her books. She’s on her way to earning her professorship when she finds out her long-term boyfriend has been sleeping with her best friend! That discovery has her hiding in the broom closet at a posh hotel.

Only, it turns out broom closets are the place to be these days.

Christian Slade, America’s sexiest man alive (as voted by fans), in a desperate attempt to escape the paparazzi finds himself in a broom closet with one sobbing occupant. Unable to leave a damsel in distress, he offers help, only to realise she has no idea who he is! It’s like he’s been given a gift. A smart, beautiful woman, who isn’t after him for fame and fortune . . .

Soon Christian is buying a Tesla to impress his scientist with his eco credentials and taking her on dates where no one will recognise him.

Loved the cover!
Loved the meet cute!
Loved this potential couple to be!

The STEM angle made sure we had a leading lady who knew a thing or two more than how to dress to impress, and which fork to use. The Hollywood angle gave us the chance to live out any movie star dreams vicariously once the big reveal occurs, while getting to know the man behind the paparazzi pics. The fact that he was able to be an average Joe for awhile was priceless. The chance for her to find her footing after such an upheaval was worth all the closeted tears...or rather tears in the closet while contemplating every mistake and wrong choice made. If you've ever wondered what it would look like if these world's collided, now is your chance, and, if I might add, with mighty fine results!

A great add to your summer of love reading list to while away a sunny day, or pass a rainy afternoon.
