The Off Limits Rule: A Romantic Comedy (It Happened in Nashville Book 1)

Product Information

A steamy new rom-com about a starchy professor and the bubbly neighbor he clashes with at every turn. Ofc, the heroine, who HAD A BOYFRIEND in the city where she was living, hadn't actually had sex since that time she got pregnant. I honestly thought she’s real like yes most character are real for me but she felt real because of how realistic her flaws were. Also I felt VERY betrayed that no where in the description did it say that main character was a single mom. I think it’s probably unhealthy, but since the day I met you, you’re all I think about, and I’m helpless to do anything about it.

it felt like i was reading a young adult romance because the main character was not only acting like a 14-year-old, but she was also quite clearly a "pick me" girl and it was hard to ignore. I already hated the cheat sheet but thought I’d give this author a second chance, (I actually hated this book for the same reasons I hated the cheat sheet). Long story short, Lucy is a single mom who is forced to move back to her hometown and because she has nowhere else to live, moves in with her brother. Typical brother's best friend/best friend's sister trope with the off limits rule that's obviously going to be broken.It’s also the kind of book that fills you with so much love and affection for the little things, for your friends and for the simple things in life. The author way of developing the characters is very impressive and her characters are well drawn and compelling. Four Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Off Limits Rule by Sarah Adams is the first book of her “It Happened in Nashville” series.

It has a likeable fmc, swoon-worthy love interest, and doesn’t get bogged down in unnecessary detail - it’s under 300 pages, and I really liked that a lot. Fun romantic comedy, light and easy, with a single mother, an overprotective brother, and the brothers friend with a questionable reputation, what could go wrong? According to him, Cooper is everything I should stay away from: flirtatious, adventurous, non-committal, and freaking hot. Drew however, was so stuck in his impression of who he knew Cooper to be and couldn’t get pass that. And then she meets her brother’s best friend, Cooper, who just so happens to be god’s gift to womankind and all her promises to focus on herself and stay away from men suddenly becomes too hard and complicated.

Lucy: the worst character ever I refuse to believe that is a 29 year old grown MOTHER she is so embarrassing and cringy I died of second hand embarrassment. Lucy is down on her luck and when her older brother rescues her and she meets his best friend, interesting sparks and chemistry ignite. It seems like the ending leads us into the sequel, in which Lucy's friend Jessie needs a fake fiancé and Lucy's older brother Drew steps in to help. The heroine is a single mother, and apparently, because of her one bad decision, she is totally hopeless when it comes to men and relationships.

I will also say I didn’t totally love how Lucy was portrayed as a young single parent - I’ve lived this life, so there were parts that I identified with - I even did the whole moving back home for support.

One other thing that really stood out to me in this book was how random the mentions of the heroine's child were at times. The Off Limits Rule is a laugh-out-loud, closed-door romance with implied intimacy, mild language, and sexual innuendo. I’ve been reading romance exclusively since 2010 and been reviewing and blogging for a few years since.He was also in a bad breakup and needed a fresh start and has been living the bachelor lifestyle ever since. Honestly I loved the female main character, she was so funny and had a great personality but I didn’t really care all that much about the romance. Bonus: Ambos protagonistas son mayores de 20 años, de echo la chica tiene unos 29 y Connor debe tener más de 30, pero nunca lo dicen.
