I Flipping Love You is the perfect summer read! It takes place in the Hamptons and is filled with flirting, teasing, laughing, and lots of flipping. I’m talking counter flipping, dryer flipping, and even some beach flipping. These characters were so fun to get to know, especially Pierce’s cocky teasing and Rian’s fierce sarcasm. Even the supporting characters in I Flipping Love You are strong characters with well developed personalities that add to the story. I can’t believe I waited so long to finally pick up a Helena Hunting book. I’ve seen her books EVERYWHERE and they are always showing up in my “Recommended” reads on Goodreads and Amazon, but I haven’t picked one up until now and I realize I have really been missing out. There was nothing about Pierce and Rian’s story that I would change. It’s fun and adorable and just flipping wonderful. I voluntarily received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. |

I voluntarily reviewed this after receiving a free copy. I absolutely loved this book. The chemistry between Rian and Pierce is noticed from the very beginning. Who knew that twins and flipping houses could lead to love and so much fun! I can't wait to read the rest of the books in this series. |
* I received an advanced copy and chose to review it * I Flipping Love You is the third book in the Shacking Up Series. Each book is unique and can be read as a stand-alone. In I Flipping Love You, we get the heartwarming and tender story of the spunky Rian Sutter and the rich and suave Pierce Whitfield. The relationship developed at a perfect pace, with both of them guarding their hearts against getting hurt...Rian has a bit of a past that seems to frighten off guys, will it frighten off Pierce? Or will she ever even tell him? Is this just a summer fling? Or is it more? You’re going to need to read this to find out! And it is so worth it! It was another fantastic story!It was a quick and fun read!I'm looking forward for more books in this series! |
Rian isn’t counting on some cocky a-hole to turn her life upside down, but Pierce Whitfield has nothing but time this summer and he’s very persistent. |
I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. I found it to be the perfect mix of sweet and funny. I loved the setting of the Hamptons and I loved all the house renovation talk. The perfect romance read for the beach! |
I love Helena Hunting's sense of humor in her writing and in her characters! Rian has many awkward moments, and she reminds me of another one of Helena's characters, Violet. There was non-stop laughter along the way. Pierce confuses Rian with Marley, and this may tamper with the girls' dream of flipping houses. Ten years ago, Rian's parents leave her and Marley in some trouble and a whole lot of debt, right as they turn 18. Rian has been working her tail off to build a better life for both of them. This book is a roller coaster of emotions. Heartbreaking, funny, and sexy- you don't want to miss Pierce and Rian's story! |

I love a good book about people fixing up a house and this one didn't disappoint. Rian and Pierce are so great together but even separately. I love them both equally which made this book all the better. Two people wanting to fix things up. Pierce is on a break from his job as a lawyer and meet Rian. They worked together so well, and had so much fun. But then you get the added drama with his brother thrown in. This book will make you laugh one minute and swoon the next. You could see yourself being friends with Rian and you would want to date Pierce. Overall a great read! :) |
I love everything Helena Hunting writes including this book. I recommend that everyone read this book and the ones before it. |

Helena has hit another one out of the park with this one. I enjoyed getting to know Pierce and seeing his personality come out. I loved his heart! He can be hard headed when needed but is a softy when it comes to the ones he loves. Rian and Marley have had go fight for where they are in life. I loved her independence and refusal of help. She was so used to it being just the two of them that she struggled with Pierce. This was a great story that takes you on a summer beach vacation in the Hamptons. |
I thought this was a great add to Helena's books and a stand a lone, but ties to the Shacking Up books... this book has Amie's brothers Pierce and Lawson and the summer in the Hamptons... The books focus on Pierce and a budding romance with Rian Sutter a twin who is making a life in real estate with the dream of flipping houses. Rian's sister meets Pierce after a hit and run in the parking lot... Pierce not found of her behavior meets back up with her, or so he thinks and the sparks fly from the first glance. Rian's family history is an issue for her and her realtibhsips so a summer fling sounds like the right idea in her mind.... too bad Pierce has something different in mind... will there chemistry be enough for them to make a true go of it or will secretes and half truths impact their fate... Hot, steamy and a GREAT summer read! |

This book was good not great. If I could give it 3 and half stars I would. Over good light read. I really did like Pierce and Rian. However the storyline I felt was very light. Their could have been more done with the secondary characters as well. |
Such a phenomenal read. I love this author and books like this one just make me love her more. Fantastic story and just an all around amazing work. Would definitely recommend this. |
If you are fan of Rom-Com Helena Hunting is the master, this contemporary romance has all the fun, quirky and steamy moments you love t oread. Pierce is looking for what he really wants to do in life, the family business just doesn’t do it, then comes Rian and everything is turned. This couple where so fun to read, the storyline got me reading all night long. I laugh and found myself wanting to read that one more chapter until I had to finish it. |
As always, Helena wooed me with her writing. Rian was a pistol, as many of her main women characters are. I love that they are so strong and independent. Pierce was...wow. Book boyfriends...man does Helena know how to make them. I love the combination of sexy + sweet + humor. I'm laughing and fanning myself throughout all of her books - what a lethal combination. I'm so glad I got the chance to read this! |
I freaking LOVED this book!!! This couple was so great. Chemistry, steamy, witty, funny, sexy, they had it all!! I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to read another book by this author!! |
I couldn’t put this book down once I started. Rian and her sister come from a broken past. They are doing their best to distance themselves from their past, yet keep somethings close to their heart. Pierce comes across as a typical rich New York lawyer, but there is so much more to him. Rian’s sister Marley has had an incident that leads to straight to Pierce. Once their worlds collide, their is no denying their chemistry. The push/ pull was great and the plot well executed. I highly recommend this book. |
This was the first book from Helena Hunting that I have ever read. She did not disappoint! I love rom coms that aren’t too over the top and not too cheesy. I had many instances during this book where I laughed out loud! I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to enjoy a good laugh and appreciates when someone is fighting against what they want to end up getting it. |
I Flipping Love You was another great read by Helena Hunting. Rian and her sister buy and sell houses to rich clients. They now have enough money to flip their own property, that is until Pierce starts taking every house from under them. I really enjoyed reading Pierce and Rian's story and can't wait to read more by Helena Hunting. |

Rian Sutter (pronounced like Ryan) and her sister Marley are out shopping for groceries when she meets an undeniably attractive man in a sharp suit, a man who seems to be tracking her throughout the store, a man who confronts her and begins yelling at her? In one of several deliciously funny mix-ups, this story starts off with a case of mistaken identity. Rian and her sister are hard-working entrepreneurs, trying to escape their family's sordid past, and rebuild a life while selling and flipping homes in the Hamptons. They are finally beginning to do well and can start working towards some of their long-term goals, barring that little grocery store incident. But fate isn't done with Rian and Mr. Sharp Suit, Pierce, because he and his brother are buying, renovating, and renting homes in the area as well. As the Summer heats up, so does the chemistry between Rian and Pierce, but after being abandoned on numerous occasions by those she loves, Rian cannot open up to Pierce in the ways he wants her to. One thing's for sure, they have crazy chemistry that is obvious to anyone who sees them. You'll find yourself rooting for them all the way to the end. I Flipping Love You is the third title in Helena Hunting's Shacking Up series. While you don't need to have read the first two books for this one to make sense, I understand based on reading the synopsis that at least one of the characters that appears in I Flipping Love You appears as a protagonist in the previous book. I have not read the other two and still managed to thoroughly enjoy this book. My one complaint about this book will barely register for most romance fans, but I'll state it anyway: there's not enough time spent in the book talking about flipping houses. That is supposedly a major point of the plot, it's even in the title, but there are no specific details in the book that lend weight to that. It reads as though someone who doesn't know much about construction set a book in that world. That being said, the plot was still enjoyable. It moves at a decent pace and tension builds throughout. You won't find much in the way of surprises in the plot, with every revelation being teased a few chapters before, but the characters are so adorably flawed that you still anticipate how they are going to react to each other when it all hits the fan. Pierce is definitely the dream romance character: extremely attractive, wealthy, and a good guy, while Rian is also attractive (but unaware of it), determined, and sassy. You'll love them both as they come to love each other. This book was funny, a little sad at times, and constantly steamy. A winning combination as far as I'm concerned. |
This was an amazing book! I laughed, and loved, and flipped those pages. Such a great story, and the characters are so real, it's like you are a part of the story, and only a wonderful storyteller can put you there. This is a sure fire hit. |
