A book about a Romance author who’s never been in love? Sign me up!!
The book was cute, characters well written and flushed out. The writing was good and enjoyable, making the book a breeze to read even if it was a bit too trope heavy for my taste. I would still recommend this book if you’re looking for something cute and fun ti read!

I liked this book, but felt it was overwhelming with all the tropes; it just seemed to be too much. There were some good parts, but overall there wasn’t any WOW for me!

I was incredibly delighted with this book, there was a lot more depth than I was expecting. Sophie is struggling with the happily ever after in her book and Dash is struggling with keeping his life in line after overcoming a dark period of his life. Coming together makes for the perfect solution.

These two had such great chemistry, not only as a couple, but also as friends. Dash was not your normal book boyfriend, yet he still made me swoon. He was a much more realistic boyfriend and it was refreshing. Don't get me wrong, the spice was wonderful, but I was able to see this play out in my mind easier than normal. His growth was perfect and made this book a solid story.

Sophie was a great female lead and as an added bonus, she is pansexual which just added a little more sprinkle to her journey. I liked her journey through her past to figure out her future. She was kind, wanted to really discover what went wrong and in doing so she grew herself.

I highly recommend this book, it's light, full of heart, humor and spicy times! Erin La Rosa has delivered yet another book that I could read over and over again!

Plot Twist by Erin La Rosa

Rating: 5 stars

"She's written off more than she can chew..."

Blurb: Sophie Lyon is a Romance author who has never been in love. Dash Montrose is a former heartthrob who has some secrets. What happens when Sophie and Dash grow closer as they spend time together.

Review: First things first Dash will always have a special place in my heart. Sophie is also so cute in her own way and her journey as an author is definitely crazy. I'm a sucker for multiple POVs (Dash and Sophie). Plot Twist was a cute and a lil steamy read and I honestly couldn't put it down.

There are some parts where I was giggling and smiling and the next I was like whatttttt. And the cover is so stinking cute. Plot Twist is definitely one of my favorite Romances.

A romance book about a romance writer who has never been in love. She decides to go and contact her exes to see if she can pinpoint what went wrong. At a first glance this book may seem like some rom/com fluff, but as we get into the story we are faced with some very real and relatable issues- problematic family dynamics, trust issues, and substance abuse disorder. I really liked the representation of alcoholism, it added a depth to our MMC, and is such an important topic in our society today.
Besides the heavy topics I did get a lot of giggles out of this book - the running squirrel jokes, the constant puns, and the pop culture references such as why Buffy and Spike were MFEA. I also enjoyed Sophie’s turn of phrase immensely. And not only was this book funny, but the spice was HOT.
I did not realize going into it, that this is technically book 2, so I will have to go back and read 1.
Thank you netgalley for the arc. My opinions are my own

This book is so sweet and filled with romance. It deals with sensitive topics like alcoholism. This book is great in every way! I truly enjoy Sophie’s journey and her meeting with her exs and falling in love!

Immediately recommended this for the library. Super cute, will definitely find patrons loving this one. Excellent read.

A fun, delightful read! I enjoy romance novels so much and this one kept me turning the pages long into the night! So cute!

So freaking good! A cute lil rom com with some depth. I really loved the dynamics with Dash’s family and addiction issues. Sophie’s attempt to get out of writer’s block was funny and heartwarming.

This had the potential to be amazing and there were several things that I really liked, but unfortunately it just missed the mark for me.
I really appreciated the way the author handled a character with a history of substance abuse who is in recovery! It was handled with such care and I appreciated that! The set up between Sophie and Dash’s friends with benefits relationship was fun, flirty, and really endearing.
Unfortunately there ended up being wayyyyyy too many cringey moments for me. I’m not opposed to social media in books because it’s literally a part of our daily lives. So the idea of Sophie documenting her journey with Dash for her TikTok followers sounded modern and cool! But it ended up feeling like it was trying too hard to blend in with the youths and I kept getting second hand embarrassment for Sophie.
I hope that doesn’t sound too harsh. But maybe TikTok is too new and present for it to make an appearance in a romance and NOT feel like it’s trying to fit with the times.

I do recommend this if you aren’t bothered by the TikToks and Sophie’s quirky, but juvenile personality which became really grating at times. I saw another reviewer compare her to Bridget Jones and that totally makes sense because I hated those movies.

Not bad. But not a favorite.

Romances that tackle serious issues can be a tough sell, but this one really does a great job handling sobriety and dating. Even without that aspect, this is a huge win. More!

Absolutely loved this book! Read it in one day. Such a beautiful story about love and life. I want more of Sophie and Dash.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I LOVED THIS BOOK It was so funny and cute it was such a cute read this was such a great story!

Plot Twist by Erin La Rosa is a modern grumpy/sunshine spicy-sweet romance novel. Dash and Sophie had good chemistry, but the dialogue was sometimes stiff. Overall it was a cute read, I would recommend it to someone looking for a quick read.

This was cute and a very light-hearted novel. However, I loved that despite that, it manages to touch on some complex issues and tricky family dynamics. It was easy to become invested into it. Loved it

I loved Plot Twist and was smiling and giddy when I finished it!

This was a sweet but (lightly) spicy romance that kept me turning the pages. Following a romance author who’s struggling with writer’s block as well as the realization that she’s never been in love and her neighbor/landlord who’s a former actor and fighting his own silent battle, these two characters join together and form an unexpected bond.

Plot Twist gave me Hallmark movie vibes - with some added spice, of course.

Thank you to Netgalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing for this ARC. I’m looking forward to reading more from Erin La Rosa.

Wow! I literally just flew through this one and the author has managed to amalgamate quite a few romance tropes into it successfully. Sophie is a romance author who goes viral saying she never found love so far and this situation inspires her to introspect her past relationships. Dash, her neighbor and her best friend's brother is dealing with his own mental issues and their instant chemistry brings them together thereby helping each other come to terms with their own lives. Sophie, clearly a sunshine kind of person and the grumpy Dash go on a road trip and this particular trip seemed to have brought them together on a more solid basis.

I liked the little fact thrown at us about Sophie’s pacemaker, though it might seem like it adds nothing to the plot and was not needed but I liked it simply due to the same fact. It's very normal and it definitely does not define her life so would hardly warrant any weeping saga about it in the entire book for sure. Why can't we have MCs with pacemakers without it being the key plot, lets accept its normal and nothing to dwell too much into it. I clearly enjoyed it as I finished it in two sittings!

This is the first book I have read by this author and I enjoyed it. The characters are well-developed and it was interesting to see them grow and learn, while also having plenty of banter and chemistry. Including real life issues like addiction and sobriety adds an additional layer of interest to this story.

I loved this book, even more than For Butter or Worse (the first book in the series). The plot was interesting, the characters were fully developed people, and some heavy issues were handled well, while hitting the right emotional beats.

i loved this book sm! i'm looking forward to more romance novels like this one! i'm looking forward to more titles by this author
