XoXo Book Blog: ~~~GIVEAWAY + REVIEW: Over Easy by Pamela Ford~~~

From award-winning author, Pamela Ford, comes the first book in a delightful, new romantic comedy series, The Continental Breakfast Club . . .

Allie Parker's had enough. Just because she's a dog groomer, her overachieving family of doctors and lawyers treats her like a child. She's convinced that a successful husband is all she needs to change their attitudes.

So when she and her friends come up with a brilliant new way to meet eligible men, Allie squeezes into her sister's stylish clothes and sneaks into continental breakfast at an upscale hotel to find herself the perfect guy. Before Allie has taken her last bite of syrup-laden waffle, she's met the man of her dreams. But what she doesn't know is that he's a jewel thief who mistakenly thinks she's his contact—and so does everyone else who's after his stash of diamonds.

Suddenly Allie's world is crazily upended. And as she scrambles to prove her innocence and get back to her old life, she discovers happily ever after sneaks up when you least expect it.

*5 Stars*

What a wonderful read! I really enjoy the story and how the author brought the characters to life. The characters were likable and relatable. I can relate to the struggle Allie had with her family. Family expectations of you can become pretty overwhelming overtime. Don't get me wrong I love my family but sometimes I feel restricted. They support me and love me but I know they wish I do something else. I'm sure that's how Allie had felt with her family. And I liked her enthusiasm in trying to prove her family wrong about her choice in career.

I am not usually the one to read contemporary stories but this one was a nice surprise. At first I didn't really thought of anything special about the book but it ended up being one of my favorites. It was such a delight to read this story. The pace of the story was good. It was easy to follow along and it wasn't all over the place. I had a blast reading this story and finished it in one sitting. The story gave me such fuzzy feelings all through out and I can't help but smile.
