Eve Morgan and Austin Flynn met four years ago when he came into her boutique to ask about plus size outdoor apparel, and they've been best friends ever since. Eve had a secret crush on Austin early in their friendship but has tried her best to put it behind her; she's even made an effort to date other guys, though she only seems to match with losers on her dating apps. As for Austin, he's always thought Eve was attractive, but he's only recently started to realize that his feelings for her may be more than just friendship. It's harder than ever for him to fight his feelings when she asks for his help in launching a new line of lingerie for her boutique. Will their new partnership bring them closer than ever, or will Austin and Eve find that business and friendship shouldn't mix?
Eve and Austin were super cute together and I adored their witty banter. I also loved how hard Eve tried to be body-positive, though even she couldn't help having doubts and insecurities sometimes. In that sense, I found her character to be very relatable. The other thing I particularly loved about this book was the humor. There were so many aspects of the story that made me laugh, but I think my favorite was Eve's obsession with gnomes when she and Austin went camping. Her cat, Marshmallow's, constant attacks on Austin were also hilarious. Finally, the book's secondary characters were tremendously entertaining, and I'd love to see a few of them return in future books. (Am I the only one hoping for Jake and Mikayla to get together?)
Overall, "Tents & Tights" was a laugh-out loud funny and sweet story with the perfect touch of steam. I highly recommend it for all romantic comedy fans and can't wait to find out what Molly O'Hare comes up with next.

About "Tents & Tights"
From the USA Today bestselling author of Learning Curves comes a best friends to lovers, opposites attract romantic comedy with a curvy, hates the outdoors, boutique owner and an annoyingly attractive, loves the outdoors guy who would rather be in nature than anywhere else. It’s a fine line between friendship and love, right?
Being fed up with never finding clothes in her size or worse, being sent to the maternity section, finally, Eve decided enough was enough and started her plus size boutique. Somewhere along the line, though, her shop led Eve to a friendship with the well-known owner of the famous outdoor adventure store in town. They were complete opposites in every way, but it worked. And even though she’d hate to admit it, he was by far the best friend she’d ever had.
Austin didn’t quite know how it happened. Four years ago, he walked into Own Your Curves to inquire about making plus size outdoor clothes for his shop. And the next thing Austin knew, he was best friends with the feisty, always kept him on his toes, pain in his backside woman. So when she asked for his guidance on expanding her shop, how could he tell her no? There was only one problem, as Austin helped Eve with the expansion, he couldn’t stop his imagination from running wild. Now, if he could just convince her to see it too…
Friendship could definitely end up being more, right?
