So apparently once upon a time, author Lynn Painter decided on a whim to release a rom-com as a serial. A chapter was sent out to the readers of her newsletter as it was written each month or so without a plan in place. ACCIDENTALLY AMY is that serial that has been updated and packaged for release. Having not read the original, Blake and Izzy’s story was new to me and I have no idea what changed. But I LOVED it. It starts out with a coffee spilling meet cute on a gorgeous stranger as Isabella hurriedly grabs “Amy’s” pumpkin spiced latte on her way to her first day on a new job. This becomes a nightmare as her new flirty guy turns out to be a vice president in her company and indirectly, her boss, who can't stand liars.
Once the pumpkin spiced latte incident is behind them, they decide to ignore their sizzling attraction and follow the rules barring supervisor/employee relations and connect only as friends. It's filled with fun secondary characters, hilarious situations, and dialog that made me laugh out loud constantly. This book was a delightful relationship roller coaster ride from friends to lovers with plenty of angst along the way and a little steam with tons of laughter.
A stolen latte results in a meet-cute for the ages in this brand-new edition, with bonus content, of New York Times bestselling author Lynn Painter's rom-com Accidentally Amy.
Isabella Shay is usually a very honest person. But when she’s running late for her first day at her dream job and the barista yells for “Amy” three times with no answer, she does the unthinkable.
Izzy takes that PSL.
It’s the exact drink she ordered and paid for, only way further ahead in the queue—and she’ll take whatever bad karma is coming for her; she’s desperate and very late. But when she turns around and runs directly into the most attractive man she’s ever seen, spilling the drink all over his made-for-GQ shirt and tie, she ends up having the ultimate meet-cute. Karma who? Sparks fly and things feel beyond promising, until he says to her: “See you tomorrow, Amy.”
Izzy reasons she can just straighten things out the next day, no biggie. Only when she gets to her new office and meets the VP of her department, it is none other than Blake Phillips—the hottie from Starbucks. And the man might’ve been charming to “Amy,” but he is an arrogant grump to Izzy, an arrogant grump who does not find her explanation funny at all. But day by day, an attraction simmers between them and they’ll have to find a way to work together without ripping each other’s heads—or clothes—off.
