I am absolutely mad about Unsolicited Advice! (British mad, not American mad.) Melinda Di Lorenzo had me under her spell within the first few pages. It's not often that I read a book with a big grin on my face.
Fast paced and slightly sarcastic is how I like my romance novels. Heidi and William did not disappoint! #unsolicitedadvice

So it started out funny, but then we got to more serious issues. This starts off with William confronting Heidi who is an advice columnist. William feels that Heidi ruined his life and he was set out to make her fix it. Heidi is a recluse and she has panic attacks as she agrees to go with William on the road. She didn't expect the trip to beso long, we have then slowly fall in love, then misunderstandings occur but in the end we get an HEA. Enjoy!

Okay, this is a cute love story between Heide, an advice columnist, and William, a charming British who had suffered because of one of her advises. William just showed up in her house one day to blame her for it and even almost forced her to help him un-ruin his life. But not an hour had passed since William laid his eyes on the unexpectedly beautiful and attractive Heidi and her house, that he realized something is wrong with Heidi. She's maybe good at advising others but maybe not to herself. But the one crazy journey William has in mind might be the only help they both need to LIVE A LIFE though they don't it yet.

This book stole my heart and grabbed my attention from the very first chapter when Heidi was talking to herself and then sees William in her backyard stuck in a rosebush (also talking to himself. hahaha).
"If Life was going to give him a second chance, damned right he was going to take it."

The plot, though some parts of it were cliche, was still amazing. The twists were well-done. Yep there are twists. I was so busy enjoying reading I had no time guessing about it. I just, you know, let the book lead me to where it wants to lead me. I was having so much fun, I forgot to guess about the reveal in the end that will explain everything. God it was so good. Seriously, wait for the twist.
"Heidi was a beautiful, complex vine around his heart, making it bloom in a way he didn't think possible."

The Romance was even more amazing than the whole plot. Yeah there was an instant attraction, but not that much. And they fall in love in a very short span of time but the development is obvious. Yeah it sounds impossible but it truly develops properly. It wasn't rushed or was it forced. No, it was RIGHT. At first I think I was worried about it because you see there is other girl involve, (but no there was no love triangle), but I was not.

And I know why. The characters. They're amazing. They're the kind of characters that you want to be friends because their sense of humour is overflowing. They're both have issues individually but together, those issues were successfully and wonderful taken care of. It was joy to see them okay. Though they were really never so dramatic. No matter how hard William's past and how serious Heidi's current state, they always find a way to make me smile. And I definitely enjoy William's way of easing Heidi's attacks. My Psychologist taught me this too. It's a grounding exercise I personally named 3-By-3. It always works with me but i think i would want a William to helping me with it. LOL.

Lastly, I wanna say that I'm gonna read every work of this author...

Unsolicited Advise (Between the Sheets Book 3) by Melinda Di Lorenzo
This is Heidi Bluthe and William Rutherford’s story.

If you need a laugh, this book is funny through out most of the book. The characters are a little on the quirky side but they soon discover that they are meant for each other.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

I so enjoyed this often funny book with the engaging dialog, character thoughts and story. There is a sort of mystery to it that causes both main characters to trip up with each other, too.
It starts with the funny way Heidi Bluth and William Henry Charles Rutherford encounter each other: he’s caught in her rose bush thorns looking like a burglar or a stalker; she’s in the kitchen gaping at him and hits her head on the kitchen counter. He’s not a burglar or stalker and rather concerned about whether or not she’s hurt. Leaving his pants in the roses, he goes to try and see if she’s fine. She is fine but has a panic attack which he helps her out of. Crazy!
Heidi is an anonymous advice columnist. William found her to make her fix his life that her column ruined. He proposes that she goes with him to rectify her error. She agrees and finds herself o a four day trek to finish a bucket list. All along he proves himself invaluable to her and they begin to fall in love but the mystery holds them back.
It’s a crazy kind of story with all kinds of questions a normal person would have before embarking on a journey with a stranger but, hey, it’s a story and it all works together to make a witty, captivating read you might enjoy.

Unsolicited Advice is book three in the Between the Sheets series. Heidi's advice in her column backfires for one reader. When he demands she set things right, she agrees to try. William's life was perfect until Heidi's advice sent it in the wrong direction. He finds more than he intended though when Heidi attempts to fix things. Maybe Heidi had it right? This book was good.

I had an absolute blast with Unsolicited Advice – and if you don’t, for some unexplainable reason, pick William as your next long term book boyfriend then, honey, you are missing out on some serious all around deliciousness.

Quirky isn’t a word I’d usually use to describe a character or a romance, but it fits so well with this one. William set out to get the advice columnist who gave advice for one situation to admit she was wrong, to un-ruin his life, the life that he’d planned out before her totally wrong advice came along. It was what he lived, breathed, planned for and executed right up until the moment he first saw Miss Anonymous in person. And then everything he’d planned started to fall apart. Not because he shouldn’t do any of it, but because this woman wasn’t what he’d expected… and maybe saving her life was more important than giving him back the life he’d once had. Of course, you’d get all of that and a bit more from the cover blurb – and I find that I don’t want to go into any more details… at all. For me to say much more would take away your discovery of a delightful, emotional, touching love story that you definitely need to get to reading – like, right now.

I had more tears from laughter and emotions with this book than I have for a very long time. It’s emotional, the situations are humorous but the issues are very real and quite honest in their descriptions. Heidi and William came alive for me from the very first page, and I simply got more involved in them finding their happy ending as the story moved along. I believe that any Romance reader, no matter their preferred genre, would enjoy Unsolicited Advice. It will melt your heart, touch your emotions, give you a few laughs and even more to think about. I loved every moment I spent with this story and I would highly recommend you discover this story for yourself.

*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley. That does not change what I think of this story. It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*

heidi bluthe is tired of cheaters and would be cheaters asking for advice on getting a free pass. she's tired of the betrayed wives looking for excuses. the truth is her secret identity of miss anonymous, advice columnist for between the sheets has become something of a trap. when a strange man shows up at her house insisting that she's ruined his life and needs to fix it with a retraction, she's equal parts terrified and stunned into agreement.

she doesn't leave her house. not unless she has a plan. not unless she has a lot of time to prepare. and even then, most of the time she stays home. for all the advice she doles out to the masses of cheaters and emotionally needy, she's kind of a mess.

william rutherford knows his plan is crazy. but he's decided to take life by the horns and live it to the fullest. he has a bucket list of things he needs to do and he needs heidi to do them with him. but she's not what he expected. and as he pushes her out of her comfort zone he feels incredibly guilty and compelled to help heidi deal with her anxiety in more effective ways than she has done.

unsolicited advice sets heidi and william on a life-altering road trip and by the end of it, there is only one logical conclusion: they belong together. his presence grounds her through the worst of her anxiety and she provides the necessary distraction from his own issues. and even though their story starts with william being a totally creepy stalker, he somehow manages to become super dreamy the more time we spend with these two.

**unsolicited advice will publish on january 15, 2018. i received an advance reader copy courtesy of netgalley/tule publishing in exchange for my honest review.

The beginning of Unsolicited Advice (Between the Sheets, #3) by Melinda Di Lorenzo is outrageously funny and entertaining. The entire first half of the book follows in that line with the how the book starts. Heidi Bluthe aka Miss Anonymous is endearing, witty, not nearly as snarky as her column alias and down right likable. William Rutherford is just as endearing as he is charming, too. I can’t remember reading of t wo characters that I liked more than these two. Does that mean that they are perfect? No, far from it.

Heidi’s major issues had nothing to do with how this book went from playful to serious in a heartbeat. The last fourth of the book if full of revelations, twists and turns in the past of Heidi and William. Every assumption (except for the Vegas one) that Heidi made, I was right there with her making the same one. Surprisingly, what starts as a chick lit romance, Unsolicited Advice is a page turner of a book. I loved it from beginning to the very end.

Despite the title of this series, which is name for a magazine. the book is more or less tame. This first 60% or so consists of guarded glances, comforting hugs and stolen kisses. All of these serves to build up the romantic tension and suspense. Also, other than having the magazine in common, all the books including Unsolicited Advice are stand-alone books.

A laugh out loud read that will leave you smiling well after the book is finished. Advice columnist, Heidi is confronted my William Rutherford that says his life was ruined by her advice. To make things right he requests that she completes his ex fiancee's bucket list with him. It will take them on unforgettable road trip to Las Vegas that will change their lives. Heidi has many issues with anxiety that William helps her over come.

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Many laugh out moments. This is the third book in the series but can be read as a stand alone. I highly recommend.

A cute and witty read. Heidi, the advice columnist, is witty and afraid to venture out into the world. William is seeking redemption on advice and sees life worth living. I love the chemistry between Heidi and William. The banter will have you laughing out loud at times. William is so gentle and caring with Heidi once he realizes her anxiety. While traveling together you can see the change in both of them and finding love when neither expect it. A cute romance that is worth checking out.

Heidi takes pride in helping the clueless. What happens when the woman with all the advice is the person who needs it most? Unsolicited Advice is a barrel of laughs with a huge quantity of heart. Ms. Di Lorenzo takes a hot mess and transforms it into a work of art. William is a charmer but he's so pushover. He's a straight shooter except in matters of the heart. Heidi all the answers, but is she answering the right questions when it comes to her own life? A sweetly crafted introspective read.

A fun, flirty story of an advice columnist who finds herself confronted by a man who is claiming her advice ruined his life. William Rutherford is demanding that Heidi help him set things right by completing a bucket list from his former fiancee. He's shocked when she agrees but it's worth the chance. That's when the hilarity begins as these two take off on an adventure that will change both their lives.

A great read that I definitely recommend.

Unsolicited Advice, book three in the Between the Sheets series by Melinda Di Lorenzo is an interesting and funny book. Heidi is Miss Anonymous, a snarky, sarcastic advice columnist. One of her readers figures out her true identity and shows up on her doorstep claiming her advice ruined his life and demands she fix it. A year ago, William Rutherford was living the dream; a beautiful fiancée and the perfect home in the suburbs. All of that changed in an instant. The advice Miss Anonymous gave might not have been the cause, but it was definitely the push that sent things over the edge. William is determined to have Heidi set things right, even if that means unexpectedly risking his heart in the process. Heidi agrees to help the sexy British charmer, William, on his quest to set things right. While traveling from Seattle to Las Vegas she too ends up risking losing her heart to him.

I really enjoyed reading this book. Ms. Di Lorenzo knows how to tell a wonderful story and she drew me into this story, not letting me go until I read the last page. This book had my feelings all over the place, sad at some scenes and laughing out loud at others. I definitely recommend this book to other readers.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

Lots of funny laugh out loud moments.

Heidi Bluthe is an advice columnist who suffers from anxiety. She gave advice to a reader, William Rutherford, who claims she ruined his life when he showed up at her house wanting payback. But it’s not the kind of payback you would think. He wants Heidi to go with him on a road trip to Las Vegas where he participates in things on his ex’s bucket list along the way. Throughout this crazy adventure, Heidi suffers from panic attacks and William is there to help her through them. He also gets her to come out of her shell too and learn to live again.

I laughed through most of this book. It was a comical story with Heidi finding herself in so many unusual situations. But there were also emotional parts in the book which made me feel a connection to the characters. It is an all-around fun feel good story with lots of laughs.

My favorite quote in the book:
“Luv. You took a four-day road trip with a man you found in your back garden in his underwear. Four days after that you let him move into your house. Of course I think you’re crazy.”

I DNF this one. It was too wordy for me and not enough dialogue to get through the entire book.I gave up at 21 percent.

Witty, funny and sexy, this story is a roller coaster of madcap adventures as heroine Heidi agrees to join a disgruntled William fulfill his former fiancée’s bucket list. These two experience an immediate and unwelcome attraction for each other, which adds an extra dimension to their journey to tick off each item on the list. Aside from the sexual pull William and Heidi easily fall into truly delightful banter which kept me entertained and invested in the story
The bucket list itself makes for entertaining reading. I won’t go into detail as it would spoil the story for anybody else, but author Melinda di Lorenzo must have a vivid imagination in order to be able to dream up this list.
I rocketed through this story. It had me laughing out loud yet also feeling concerned for the wellbeing of the protagonists. It’s been an absolute delight to read.

I loved this book. Absolutely loved it. Too many adjectives to describe all the good things about it.

The story starts with Heidi who is an advice columnist for a magazine called Between the Sheets.
She's anonymous and of course likes it that way. Her column is widely read and popular. She works from home and while she's stuck weeding through way too many letters seeking help, she goes to the kitchen to make coffee. Looking out her kitchen window she sees a man in her back yard. He's actually caught his pants in the overgrown rose bushes but he's obviously scaled the fence and ignored the no trespassing signs and she also notices how handsome he is.

Poor William, caught on Heidi's rose brush and the more he struggles the more snared he becomes. his solution is to take off his pants. Meanwhile Heidi has a bit of an accident in the house and hits her head. William is stripping off his britches and comes around to the front door. His narrative of her yard and car are hysterical. William, you will fall in love with William. No doubt about it. He's a Brit.
It's taken him a year but he's finally tracked her down, this anonymous advice columnist who he claims ruined his life. And he demands she fix it. Heidi is really wary of this man. He's persistent and isn't going away, and doesn't really tell her how she ruined his life. He demands she come with him for a little ride. The ride turns into a 4 day adventure of "bucket list" items that push Heidi to her limit. Heidi has a problem which you can read about in the book and yet with William she feels calm and when she runs into trouble, he's present and soothing. I want a William clone.

This is a wonderful, fun filled yet emotional story that is so well written. It's my first book from Melinda and I'll be reading more. This is a must read and be ready to fall for William. I really loved both he and Heidi. What a fantastic couple and fantastic book! I'm so happy I read this! I rarely say that, but this book is a winner. Buckle up and go along for the ride!! Great story Melinda!!!

*I received an arc of this book, the above is my honest review and all opinions are my own**

Unsolicited Advice by Melinda Di Lorenzo, book three in the Between the Sheets romance series. A great addition to the series. It took me a little longer to get into this book but it was a fun read in the end. I enjoyed the characters and storyline.

I received a complimentary arc from NG for review purposes.

THis book was so not what I expected. I was looking for a fun, light read and it was so NOT. THat said it was a good story, well written and I enjoyed the characters. There are lots of plot points I do not want to spoil so it is tough to say anything about the plot. I will say I loved the opening scene.

Again keep in mind this is a more serious type of romance. Both William and Heidi have some real serious issues and I loved how they get together to work those issues out. William was this really terrific character and I fell hard for him.

It is not what I was looking for in a story as I like lighter romances but it was very well written and plotted and I absolutely enjoyed it.
