The Roommate Pact has one of my favorite tropes - emails and letters. A good letter in a romance book will always get me and this one made my heart swoon. What's better than emails except writing them to the void, confessing our feelings, wondering if someone will ever read them. There's just something so romantic about it in and of itself. All the things we expose when we write a letter - swoons. But even more so, the chemistry between Claire and Graham is electric.

I absolutely LOVED this book!! I’ve been waiting for this book because I loved Graham and Claire in Would You Rather. And Allison did not disappoint! The banter in this book was top tier 🤌🏼 highly recommend if you want a quick and swoon worthy book with low spice (and coming from someone who likes a lot of spice, this book is worth the lack of 👏🏼)

Who doesn't love a good marriage/romance/pregnancy pact? This story focuses on two friends that make a pact together to become friends with benefits if all else fails. The slow burn of falling in love with these characters' love was truly amazing. This was a great summer, beach read that I devoured in a moment. Perfect for fans of Christina Lauren, Falon Ballard, and Emily Henry,

I loved this book. The banter between the two main characters. I love that she got his mean dog to actually love her. I loved how they interacted and how they made that agreement. In the end it was the most perfect story. Thank you to netgalley, the publisher, and the author for allowing me to read this book in exchange for a review from my opinion.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with an advanced copy of TThe Roommate Pact by Allison Ashley.

I absolutely adored this book! Such a fun and cute read! If you like romance reads- grab this one! I loved the friends to lovers vibes so very much!

The porch wing squeaked as she rocked back and forth and took in the warm breeze. This spot was a comfort after a long, busy day. The ER was always chaotic and it was nice to sit here and settle her brain. The only thing that could make this spot perfect is if a certain someone could come out here and join her.

The Roommate Pact is a dual POV romance following roommates, Claire and Graham. Claire is an ER nurse and Graham is a firefighter and adrenaline junkie. Both in their 30s they make a pact to get married if they’re still single at 40.

This romance had more depth than I expected and I really loved that. Exploring what it takes to work through trauma and how to allow yourself to let down your walls and be vulnerable. What it’s like to have those special people in your life that you can just be you around. It was a swoon-worthy romance with a friends with benefits turned lovers connection.

If you’re looking for a friends to lovers romance with some heart-warming depth… I recommend checking this one out!

I loved this one. Graham was the best and I'm glad Claire figured it out in the end LOL. Loved the Colorado references and I enjoyed the audio! I will read more from Allison Ashley for sure!

This was a little too farfetched for me overall, but the bookstagram hype got me and while I did enjoy the writing and ultimately the characters too I think I am on the opposite side from all the fanfare I have seen thus far.

If Claire and Graham are single by the time they're 40, they'll become friends with benefits (a bit of a spin on marry by the time they're 40). Graham is a thrill seeker and due to Claire's past, she has vowed to never get involved with someone who is so reckless with their own life. But the heart wants what the heart wants and this friendship continue to evolve into something more.

I haven’t read a really enjoyable fiends with benefits book in a very long time and I feel like this one just reignited that little flame in my heart and it was done so well. I am so looking forward to sharing this with everyone I know and I can’t wait to head into stores to pick it up myself on release day.

It is a true treasure when you find an author that writes the type of books that always makes your heart happy.

Allison Ashley has become that kind of author for me.

The Roommate Pact is a hilarious and tender-hearted rom com about two people who are just right for one another. I fell in love with their chemistry from the start and loved witnessing their relationship develop over the course of the story. The writing is easy breezy, but incredibly done. This is the type of book you put down when you're done and smile for days.

I highly recommend this book as well as her debut.

Thank you Mira and Netgalley for my copy.

DNF / the characters were a bit bland and I kept trying but it just wasn't it for me. I couldn't really get into it.

thank you to netgalley for the advanced reading copy. I really enjoyed this and will be getting copies for my shop.

A sweet and sensual, friends to lovers romance that has a lot of growth and heart from the two main characters.

Claire is a ER nurse and Graham is a thrill seeking firefighter who made a packed that if they arent married by forty they are each others backup plan they are friends and roommates and nothing more so to Claire she didn't think much of the deal. When Graham got serious injuries that leave him down for a while Claire offers to help him out unware that things are going to start heating up between the two as they get to spend more time and learn more about eachother.

I've read many other books with kinda the same plot and yet this author managed to make it her own with a unique set of characters and I really enjoyed seeing how things went on in this book. It was interesting to get to know their past which made it easy to understand why Claire was a bit iffy about letting Graham close in a relationship way because of what happened with her father. Then it was Grahams point of view which I loved because of those emails he was writing, absolutely adorable. Both had plenty of trauma and things from the past that made it hard to move on into the future and it was interesting seeing how everything settled out in the end. Overall I really enjoyed this book and highly recommend you romance lovers to check this book out.

Having heard plenty of stories about the ER and fire stations, this felt like a match made in heaven and Allison Ashley definitely delivered in her book. This was sweet, hilarious, and steamy. I will definitely be checking out Allison Ashley's later works!

After really enjoying Would You Rather, I knew I would be reading more from Allison Ashley. I also enjoyed getting to know Graham and Claire in that book so I was interested in where their story would lead. I’ll be honest and say that a “friends with benefits” plot isn’t usually my cup of tea because of my personal beliefs around intimacy but this book kind of proved my point as to why that’s not a good idea - one or both will fall for each other because you can’t have that level of vulnerability without it affecting major emotions.

I loved Graham and Claire, as individual characters but also together. They are in your face at times and have the best tension and banter. They both had really great emotional growth in this book and I loved the way the author had Graham begin to open up to his feelings. There were also some really funny moments involving Graham’s dog Gertrude that made me laugh out loud. The arc for her and Claire might be my favorite part of this book.

I appreciate the level of spice that Allison adds to her stories. I think she is filling a niche for readers that want a lot of tension with a little bit of spice but closing the curtain before we get too much detail.

The third act wasn’t my favorite and got a little frustrating for me but this was otherwise an enjoyable read.

I received an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley. Opinions in this review are my own

As an ER nurse, I read this summary and knew I had to read this book. And it's true, ER nurses do tend to find romance with firefighters and police officers. I loved reading about the pact and it was obvious sparks were flying between these two. I really enjoyed the characters and the plot of this book.

Allison writes the sweetest books. I loved the forced proximity and the situation that propelled their relationship further. It was cute with great banter!
