About this ebook

Wanted: Dating coach to help hot nerd win back the woman of his dreams...

Picture this - Iā€™m ready to win back the love of my life, and Iā€™m going big this time. Weā€™re talking boom box, sing her name in the rain, let the whole damn neighborhood know I'm good and ready this time around. After all, if you're going to grand gesture the ever-loving hell out of a second chance, you need to pull out all the stops.

Thereā€™s only one little problem.

My college girlfriend isn't the one who shows up when I play my "I'll do anything to win you back" tune.

The woman who flings open the second-floor window tells me my ex doesnā€™t live here anymore. But she'll help me win her back. Anything for romance, anything for a guy so willing to go big for love. And that's what I want at first. Until I get to know my new ā€œromance coachā€ and discover sheā€™s funny, clever, and keeps me on my toes. And boy, do I ever need that.

Now I don't want to win anyone elseā€™s heart. I want the woman who's been helping me all along.

Trouble is - she thinks I'm in love with someone else, and when we take off on a road trip, everything I think I know about women is about to be unzipped and turned inside out.


*Unzipped is a standalone spinoff in the Lucky in Love series of standalones*

3.5* Unzipped is a cute, fun, easy read. The witty banter is trademark Lauren Blakely and will put a smile on your face. As someone who was a teen in the 80s I got a kick out of all the movie references, they brought back some fun memories. And honestly, this book could be an 80s romcom- Tom starring as the endearingly clueless hero and Finley the sweet and quirky heroine who sets out wanting to help him reconnect with his old girlfriend but finds herself falling for him instead. Tom and Finely were very likable characters and I enjoyed "watching" them fall for each other.

My favourite heroines are the quirky adorable type that totally embrace their brand of crazy šŸ˜ Itā€™s the type I admire the most and want to be; so as you can imagine I totally and utterly adore Finley. Cute and sassy, Finley embraces life and positivity, her dream to make people smile via her writing. She has a situational comedy on a network that is her literary baby; only it is hanging on by a thread and Finley is struggling to find a new direction to take her characters. Enter Tom aka Kyler, who has come in search of his first love in order to feel the connection he had with her and hasnā€™t been able to replicate since. Having lost his mother at a young age, his romantic references come from 3 older brothers and cheesy ā€™80s rom-coms. His mindset on the grand gesture to win the girl only it doesnā€™t go quite to plan when he encounters Finley rather than his ex, Cassie. The events following their hilarious first encounter include a lot of cheesy movie quotes, hilarious female comedians and a fast fall for both of them. Unzipped played out like a sit-com in my head; imagine a Ross and Rachel scenario with the will they wonā€™t they along the way. The only problem is Finleyā€™s previous relationship ended due to the feelings her ex harboured for his ex. Top that off with her initial encounter with Tom being in pursuit of another woman and you canā€™t help but understand Finleyā€™s incapability to comprehend Tomā€™s feelings for her. There is a wonderful cast of peripheral characters that in true Lauren Blakely style you want each and every individual story and there are a few plot threads open within Unzipped which would allow the possibility to become reality. From road trips to roller coasters, Unzipped is a thrill ride of swoon.

4.5 Fun & Flirty Stars! I had so much fun reading this latest rom-com by Lauren Blakely. I loved the meet cute between Finley & Kylar (Tom). Their accidental meeting lead to Finley helping Tom win back the woman who broke his heart in college, and in return, Tom would help Finley with her new show that she needed to write. This took them on practice dates, and a road trip filled with fun and unique experiences. Finley and Tom bonded over their shared love of 80's movies, and going on new exciting adventures. Finley was second choice with her last relationship, so she doesn't want to believe Tom when he tells her that he has developed feelings for her. As their adventures bring them closer together, and their attraction more electric, Finley realizes that Tom had her at 'Hello'! One of the things I love about Blakely's stories, besides the witty banter she does so well, is the uncommon jobs her characters have, the unique foods they enjoy, and unconventional spots they visit. She opens up a new, fresh, and exciting world of possibilities to us. This is a heartwarming, fun and sexy romance that you will want to read again and again!
