This is the steamy rom-com of the summer! It’s a reverse Pretty Woman meets the Rosie Project. But be forewarned. It’s steamy. I don’t tend to read a lot of steamy books but it was a welcome escape. Such a cute story and can’t wait for the next installment featuring Khai.

I will probably have a very unpopular opinion here but I only sort of liked this book. It was OK and I was able to finish it in a day. I would say that Stella is a more likable Eleanor Oliphant. I definitely liked this book more than I liked Eleanor Oliphant.

I’m going to start by saying how refreshing it is to have a story told by someone with autism. I loved how it brought a whole differing perspective that I haven’t had the chance to read much of. With that being said, I loved this book. I loved the characters, I loved the cultural piece and I was floored at how raunchy it was. It was not what I was expecting but non the less I adored this love story. If you are looking for a non conventional love story this is it.

I stayed up LATE to finish this book in one sitting. I received this in my @bookofthemonth box yesterday. The premise is unique enough that I chose to put it on the top of my tbr list. This is a contemporary romance that features a heroine with high functioning autism. Intellectually brilliant, she struggles with human interaction and is unable to navigate the “normal” ebbs and flows of life. She hires an escort to give her lessons in the mechanics of romantic relationships. What unfolds is the ...more

I flew through this book on a plane ride. I started it on a whim. The plot didn't particularly appeal to me, but the book got so much buzz, and I wanted to see what the hype was about.

Stella, an engineer with Asperger's, hires a male escort named Michael to teach her how to be good in bed. They form a very real partnership that quickly turns into love. But even though their feelings for each other are real, they must face their difference is socio-economic status and how they came together in t ...more

Let me start off by saying I am a total sucker for contemporary romance stories. However, I loved the Kiss Quotient more than most.
After a recommendation from one of my best friends, I picked it up and read it in one sitting. Both Stella and Michael are such well developed and likable characters and I became deeply invested in their unconventional love story. Although the ending was a tad predictable (like most romance novels), I was left feeling completely satisfied. I can’t wait to read The B ...more
