📖 I received a gifted e-book ARC. The following is my honest review✍🏻
When Grumpy Met Sunshine is a single POV opposites attract RomCom. It focuses on Mabel, a ghostwriter who is walking sunshine, and Alfie, the surly retired soccer player who has hired her to write his memoir. When pictures of her leaving his house lead to speculation about their relationship they decide to fake date to avoid revealing her true role in his life.
This book was fake-dating, grumpy/sunshine rom-com heaven. It’s filled with banter and dirty talk, an equal amount of ridiculousness and sexiness, and is just all-around a fun and endearing read.

A steamy, opposites-attract romance with undeniable chemistry between a grumpy retired footballer and his fabulous and very sunshine-y ghostwriter.
When grumpy ex-footballer Alfie Harding gets badgered into selling his memoirs, he knows he’s never going to be able to write them. He hates revealing a single thing about himself, is allergic to most emotions, and can’t imagine doing a good job of putting pen to paper.
And so in walks curvy, cheery, cute as heck ghostwriter Mabel Willicker, who knows just how to sunshine and sass her way into getting every little detail out of Alfie. They banter and bicker their way to writing his life story, both of them sure they’ll never be anything other than at odds.
But after their business arrangement is mistaken for a budding romance, the pair have to pretend to be an item for a public who’s ravenous for more of this Cinderella story. Or at least, it feels like it’s pretend―until each slow burn step in their fake relationship sparks a heat neither can control. Now they just have to is this sizzling chemistry just for show? Or something so real it might just give them their fairytale ending?
