Book Review: Mistakes Were Made by Lucy Score

This is the second book in the Story Lake Series. Her first book, Story of my Life was one of my favorite romcoms I've ever read. It had me laughing out loud every few chapters! So when this book came out I could not wait to read it!

Literary agent Zoey Moody doesn't like small town life, but here she is: exiled from Manhattan's publishing scene and trapped in a tiny Pennsylvania town with her BFF and only remaining client, Hazel. The problem? She's totally broke.

All she needs is for Hazel's next romance novel to become a gigantic hit, and Zoey will be back in New York. Nothing will stand in her way. Nothing except her six-foot-two-inch landlord, Gage Bishop. He's smart, serious, and sexy. Worst of all, he's ready to settle down.

Zoey might be the most beautiful woman Gage has ever met, but it's clear they're all wrong for each other. She's allergic to commitment and can't work a calendar app; he's looking for a wife and has the next five years all planned out. She's afraid of animals. He lives in a literal barn. But when Gage's world is rocked by a devastating family secret, he turns to Zoey for one night to forget everything. That one night just might change everything…or ruin it.

I fell in love with the characters while reading the first book, Story of my Life, so I loved getting to know them more. I did feel like this book wasn't as funny as Story of my Life. I laughed out loud a few times, but not as much as I did with the first - which was a little disappointing. I know this is a typical romcom story, but its just so predictable that the male love interest does something to mess up the relationship 100 pages until the end of the book, and then does some grand gesture to redeem himself. Like the first book, the end annoyed me. SPOILER ALERT! A guy moving all of someone's stuff into his house without asking, or even knowing if they wanted to move in with him is crazy! Thats exactly how the first book ended as well. I wish the author switched it up a little, didn't make it so predictable, and didn't rush the ending. I gave this book 2.5 stars on Fable.

Have you read this book yet? What did you think?
