I've been hearing good things about Ms. Hunter's books for ages, so when the opportunity to participate in this tour came up, I jumped at the chance. I'm very happy that I did because I loved this book! It works well as a
standalone despite being the fifth book in the series, and I was easily able to follow along with all of the events and characters as a new reader of Ms. Hunter's work. I highly recommend "Cheesy on the Eyes" for all fans of contemporary romance and romantic comedy, especially if you like a dirty talking hero, and will absolutely be reading more of Teagan Hunter's books in the future.
About "Cheesy on the Eyes"
Dating is hard. Dating in a small town? Impossible.
Leave it to my little brother to come back home announcing he knocked up his fiancée and the wedding has been moved…to next month.
When he tries to set me up with one of his football buddies, I tell him I’ll be bringing my own plus-one.
Only problem? I’m hopelessly single.
Enter Sullivan Scott, AKA my hero.
We strike a deal: he’ll pretend to be my boyfriend, and I’ll use my mechanic skills to help him fix his boat. That’s it. No funny business, and definitely no feelings involved.
Sully’s quiet and reserved, and I’ve been told I’m too much to handle on a good day. We’re opposites, and neither of us is looking for anything serious.
I’m certain we can keep this strictly platonic…
My Review
I loved Teagan Hunter's "Cheesy on the Eyes," a super
cute and funny fake relationship story. There was amazing chemistry between main characters Thea and Sully, and I enjoyed the slow burn of their relationship development until they finally
gave into their attraction. After that, I couldn't wait for them to
quit pretending that their relationship was still fake because it was so obvious how
perfect they were for each other. Both Sully and Thea had been hurt by people
close to them in the past, so it was completely understandable for them to be scared to get into a new relationship. They shared those fears with each other rather than keeping them bottled up, which I appreciated, and in the end, they just needed to be brave
enough to make a leap of faith together.
The banter between Thea and Sully was truly excellent and made me laugh so many times. I completely adored Thea, who was tough, independent, determined, and had no filter whatsoever. She let her true self shine through at all times, despite the fact that people had tried to make her feel bad about it in the past. Sully was a man of few words in most situations, but he didn't let Thea get away with anything, and he was surprisingly good at dirty talk when the situation warranted.
The secondary characters in this book were also a tremendous amount of fun and added a lot of depth to the narrative. I particularly enjoyed Thea's
parents and their twisted sense of humor. Sully's
bromance with his friends was also hilarious and made me want to
go back and read the earlier books in the series since his friends starred in those stories. It sounds like those guys really know how to have a good time!
This was the first book I've ever read by Teagan Hunter, but it certainly will not be the last. I look forward to seeing what she writes next!
