The Breakup Bucket List (Love Is ...) by: Cassie Cross
The Breakup Bucket List by Cassie CrossMy rating: 4 of 5 starsThanks for the memories, Cassie Cross. The Breakup Bucket List is a celebration. Lindsay closes one heartbreaking chapter of her life, only to find a connection of the heart, she hadn't known she was looking for. Evan is on a man on a mission. Success is the name of the game, but his heart could have other plans. In a world where actions speak louder than words, it's nice to step away from the harshness of reality and into the beauty that is love. My one pet peeve is that it ended far too soon.

"The Breakup Bucket List" by Cassie Cross was a cute, sweet, and fun story that read as a complete standalone, though I note that the female lead character's sister starred in the previous story of the Love Is... series. The opening chapter was particularly entertaining because it felt a bit like a spy caper to me. Female lead character Lindsay acted like she was on a secret mission with the way she was sneaking around, and it was obvious that she was doing something she wasn't supposed to do. However, breaking the rules led to an awesome meet-cute with the male lead, Evan, and set up a delightful, if quick, romance.
I was impressed at the amount of character development that was packed into such a short (novella-length) story, as well as the fact that the relationship between Evan and Lindsay never felt like insta-lust or insta-love. Lindsay and Evan were both quite likeable and relatable, and I enjoyed their witty banter as they explored the city together and got to know each other. It was clear that they were attracted to each other from the start, but I could also tell that they genuinely liked each other and had fun spending time together.
Overall, I very much enjoyed "The Breakup Bucket List" and highly recommend it for all fans of contemporary romance and romantic comedy. I look forward to the next book in this series.

Breakup Bucket list ticked off all the boxes for me in what I want in a summer read.
It was fun.
A great Meet Cute
A quick Read
Likeable Characters
HEA
This was just the read I needed. It was the perfect fun flirty romance to sit on the patio in the sun for a couple of hours.
The characters of Even and Lindsey are delightful and very likeable. Evan is the taking over the reins of his family’s corporate business. He is truly a nice guy. Not the typical businessman we so often find in these love stories. Lindsey has her own software consulting business. Lindsey is packing up her life in Port City after a breakup and ticking off items on her to do list for the city before she moves back home. A chance encounter on the roof of Evan’s corporate building leads to this fun and flirty read.
I recommend this to any looking for an easy fast summer read. You could easily finish this in one afternoon by the pool. This was a 4/5 read for me.
