(Dealing With Love, #1)
by Laura Lee
Release Date: September 1, 2015
How were they supposed to know that one night would change everything?
Devyn has life all mapped out. She just needs to accomplish one more thing before graduating college and becoming a full-fledged adult—lose her virginity. And who better to assist her than her best friend, Riley?
Riley is the self-proclaimed king of fling. His college years have been filled with meaningless hookups until the one night that ruined him for all other women. The one night he spends with his best friend, Devyn. Right before he screws it all up.
Balls to the wall, baby!
Now five years later, Riley is determined to atone for his mistakes and prove that he can be the man that Devyn deserves. Little does he know that Devyn’s been keeping a secret from him all these years. A big secret. Now he has to figure out how to win back the only girl he’s ever loved while navigating the pitfalls of her unexpected revelation.
Deal Breakers is filled with lots of laughs, a sexy romance, and an overflowing swear jar.

Review
Another new adult book with the
recurring friends to lovers theme that seems so popular lately. I
found Deal Breakers to be both predictable and sweet in that Must
Read way.
From the moment he first saw Devyn,
Riley could not take his eyes off of her. He knew there was something
special about this hot blond that he just had to get to the bottom
off. Unfortunately for Riley, he was friend-lined from day one. Devyn
wasn't looking for a relationship of any sort, romantic or physical.
However, everyone could use a new friend. For four years Devyn and
Riley were inseparable. Now, finally graduating and getting ready to
take the world by storm, Devyn decides there is just one last thing
she has to do... she needs to lose her virginity. And of course who
better to do it than her man-whore of a best friend, Riley. One night
was all it took to change everything.
I have to admit that once I began
reading Deal Breakers I just could not seem to put it down. Although
the story line was predictable, the characters were engaging and at
times made me laugh. I only wish we had gotten a chance to get to
know the characters a bit more than one chapter to represent each
year they had known each other. That one thing aside, I was rooting
for Riley when he finally got his head out of his you know what and
decided to go after the one woman he never forgot.
I would definitely recommend this to
others. I've never read this author before however, if this is any
indication of this author's overall storytelling capabilities and
writing, I look forward to other books by her.
