Licked, I mean that title alone has you curious doesn’t it?!
Well I can assure you this romantic comedy will not disappoint from the first page. It’s a got a speedy “grabbing” start that will have you tugging onto the next pages (can you tell the book has rubbed off on me) okay I will stop now lol!
But Licked is a masterpiece of joy! Brooke Blaine knows how to write an intriguing story and with a love triangle that doesn’t get annoying or too mix-up-y! There’s also a group of girlfriends that add some more giggles to the story with their large personalities.
I loved this book so much but what stole the show was Ryleigh and her way of owning her eccentric self. She may have not been treated great at school but here, as an adult she has the life she’s always wanted. So what if she can finally snag the guy from back in high school to seal the deal.
When Ryleigh and Cameron have a very unique meet cute they can’t help spending some more time together. However Ryleigh’s nerves get in the way a little and so when a night ends a busy due to Cam, she takes the couch. Only to wake up to seeing his super hot builder roommate Hunter.
However Ryleigh really want to give things a go with Cam, yet when he has to leave town for a bit and Hunter is very much around her everyday due to him helping extend her business, things can’t help but sizzle.
It’s a funny, cute read with a punch of emotion and a rollercoaster by the last page. Yet I love a book that takes you on a journey and this one does, it also promises a lot of smiling and laughing so grab if you need some lightness in your life!

Blurb:
As the owner of Licked, an eclectic ice creamery and bar, Ryleigh Phillips doesn’t have time for that love stuff. Serving up Nibble My Nuts sundaes and Drunken Sailor boozy shakes are as close to an orgasmic affair as she’s had in months thanks to her expanding empire—until the night of her ten-year high school reunion.
When Ryleigh’s crush, gorgeous ex-football god Cameron Mathis, comes streaking into her life (literally—streaking), she begins to wonder if she really can have it all.
Wouldn’t it just figure that the moment you think life is perfect is when it falls spectacularly apart?
Enter Hunter Morgan, the contractor in charge of Licked’s renovations. Devastatingly handsome, and a smartass to boot, he’s got his eyes on Ryleigh from the moment he finds her passed out on his couch (yeah, that’s a long story). There’s just one tiny complication—he happens to be Cameron’s best friend.
When the lines between relationships and friendships blur, and it’s impossible to choose between two delicious flavors, what’s a girl to do? Taste a sample of each? Or go out and get LICKED?
