This book was so entertaining. I was drawn into the story from the beginning and was involved until the end. The characters were complex and interesting. I found the story to be well paced and engrossing throughout the whole book. I was invested in the couple throughout the book and felt all the emotions through both the highs and lows of the story.The side characters were such an integral part of this story as well. This is the love story i needed to read at this time. If you want an entertaining and well written book this is it for you |
ARC provided by Netgalley and publisher. This does not influence my review of this book. I Flipping Love You was a quirky, fast paced, and fun read. This romance is the perfect pick me up rom-com. I loved the chemistry between Rian and Pierce, their quips and sexual innuendos kept me grinning. I really enjoyed Rian and her twin sister Marley's relationship. Marley is quite the character and really made the book stand out for me. I would recommend this book to any rom-com romance reader and I sad I waited so long to get around to reading it. |
Sadly, I could not stand the “hero” of the book who came off as a pompous, arrogant, chauvinistic jerk right off the bat. Plus, the fact that the heroine kept finding his behavior attractive just blew my mind. It had a great concept, but I didn’t enjoy the execution. |
Helena Hunting remains a fun author for me to read, and a popular choice for my library's contemporary romance crowd that enjoys things a little on the steamier side. The author knows how to write a solid romantic comedy, with lines that manage to feel genuine and realistic rather than corny and cringe-worthy. And there remains a good balance between the humor and a more serious tone when needed. This is the type of light hearted read that will fly off the shelves not just during the February romance rush, but whenever anyone needs a fun and flirty pick-me-up. Recommended for romance sections where contemporary romance and romantic comedies are popular. |

I’m a dedicated fan of Helena Hunting and the Shacking Up series has some of my favorite books from her. Book 2 is my favorite so this was a highly anticipated follow up, and I quite enjoyed it! I still fondly remembered numerous elements of the story more than two years later, and I plan to reread it soon. I would definitely recommend this to readers who share my taste in sexy contemporary romances with quirky humor. |
Cute, fun, and flirty! That's what I've come to expect from this author's work and that’s exactly what she has delivered in I Flipping Love You. Here’s what I enjoyed: The characters and their meet cute. I’m still giggling over that one. Pierce is something else! A broody a**hole after my own heart. His type sings to my sinister soul. His pursuit was pretty relentless and epic. Rian is absolutely hilarious and the attraction between these two jumps off the page. I love that Rian is pretty much self-made. A go getter with a plan for success, who refuses to let anything stand in her way. The shenanigans and smoking hot chemistry between these two were the icing on the cake. A great fun read! Recommended. |
I Flipping Love You tells the story of Rian Sutter, a young realtor with a shameful family past and big dreams. The Sutter sisters do more than buy and sell houses to the rich and famous, now they finally have the capital to flip their very own beachfront property. Pierce Whitfield doesn’t normally demo kitchens, install drywall, or tear apart a beautiful woman’s dreams. He’s just a down-on-his-luck lawyer who needed a break from the city and agreed to help his brother work on a few homes in the Hamptons. That's when he faces the woman who scratched his Tesla in the parking lot of a supermarket. Or so he thought. Turns out he was literally barking up the wrong tree. It had been Rian's sister who damaged his car. But it was Ryan that had his pulse racing in an undeniable attraction he had never felt before. Convincing her he was not a bad guy and getting her to go out with him will take some serious perseverance, but Pierce is nothing if not focused and detail-oriented. There must be a reason, Pierce and Rian keep running into each other. Fate? Kismet? Witchcraft? Who knows. All that matters is that one is all the other can think about, and if a summer fling is all they can be, then so be it. But Fate has other plans for these two. And between flipping houses and making deals, their secrets will come out, and love just might pop in. |
I flipping loved this story. From the unique way Pierce and Rian met to their amazing chemistry and banter, I enjoyed every word. There was a lot of depth to both of their backgrounds, which made things interesting between them. Pierce and Rian have a lot in common, especially their real estate adventures. I really liked this part and all of the ways it took the story. The supporting characters were a lot of fun too. I hope we see them again. |
I feel I am in the minority on this one. Normally, Helena Hunting is one of my go to authors. However, this story wasn't for me. I struggled to like Rian, which is a must for me to enjoy a novel. Although this title wasn't for me, I look forward to Ms. Hunting's future releases. |
I flipping love Helena Hunting books. Witty banter, great characters and lots of angst on the way to fun you cannot lose with a Helena Hunting story! |
This was a decent story and I somewhat enjoyed both the hero and the heroine. Rian and Pierce were well-written characters. However, nothing really stood out making it a great book. |
I really did not like this heroine and when I don't like one of the mcs in a romance it is really hard for me to love a book. This one just wasn't for me. |

This is how a romance book should be written. Rian and Pierce have great conversation and amazing chemistry. I laughed so many times while reading this, and found myself wishing Pierce really existed. I had to literally pace myself and only allow myself to read 2-3 chapters a night because I didn't want the book to end, but halfway through I couldn't stop reading because it was so good. I haven't read any of the previous books in the series but it didn't make a difference...except I wish I got to read more about Lex. Whoa. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the arc. |
This book was fun. I am starting to learn that Helena Hunting is a reliable contemporary romance author. Her hockey series - so good. What I liked about this book is that is was just fun, right about drama. Characters clear, each with their personalities. Dialogue and banter were on point. Just delightful. Recommend. I received an arc from NetGalley and St. Martin's for an honest review. |
Helena Hunting is incapable of writing anything that's not good. This one is no exception; funny, touching, and showcasing some very imperfect yet endearing characters, I read this one without stopping for air. *I received a review copy from the publisher/author via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.* |
Helena Hunting never fails to make me smile. I loved this smart and fun story that kept me turning the pages long after my bedtime. |
3.5 stars... cute, funny and sweet - nothing I didn't expect and somewhat predictable but still enjoyable! |
It always surprises me when an author writes a book that has a different feel than her normal and it really shouldn’t, but I Flipping Love You by Helena Hunting wasn’t her usual rip roaring funny rom-com, this book was a bit more serious, it was charming, and it was very enjoyable. Since the age of 18 Rian and her twin sister Marley have been pretty much on their own and figuring out how to make life work. Being successful real estate agents in the Hamptons have helped them work towards their goal of gaining enough capital to be able to flip some beach houses and save enough money t be able to buy their grandmother’s estate from the current owner when it goes on the market and given the state of disrepair it probably won’t be much longer. When Rian is approached in the grocery store by a man who defines bad boy and has an a$$hole demeanor to match, she if furious at his accusations until she realizes that it’s a case of mistaken identity and her twin has some explaining to do, what Rian can’t deny is the attraction she feels for a man she just met and one she knows won’t be good for her or her heart. I actually love the way they met and the verbal foreplay between them for a good part of this book and while the first third of this book was pretty funny and somewhat snarky that mellowed as this story played out. That’s not a bad thing, it was just different and I enjoyed watching them spend time together, enjoy each other’s company in all kinds of interesting ways, and get to know one another even when Rian was holding back a good chunk of her life. Pierce turns out to be the opposite of a bad boy, he’s actually quite sweet and has a heart of gold and is perfect for Rian even if she refuses to admit it or open herself up to him. I loved that he was patient, kind, and even when he was angry he managed to think about what happened rationally and deal with the situation and Rian calmly. I liked Rian and it was obvious that life had made her guarded and that was warranted, but it was fun to watch her enjoy life again with Pierce even when at times she ran scared. A sweet romance with a steamy, sexy side I Flipping Love You was a great summer read and one readers will no doubt enjoy! |

Rian has worked so hard in her life that she willing to do everything for her job. And she is about to do so when the bidding war begins in real estate when Pierce comes to town.
