Calamity Rayne: Gets A Life by Lydia Michaels

5.0

Hale & Rayne: These Two Are Contagious! You Will Love Them! 5 Stars

I don't believe there is a genre that Lydia Micheals can write that I don't enjoy. She must be multi-talented if she can get me to enjoy a Rom-Com. Because I don't particularly care to read them. At all. I usually find them to be very silly. This book, however, has broken the myth.

CALAMITY RAYNE: GETS A LIFE is one of the most hilariously funny books that I have read in a long time. We meet Rayne, a woman who just turned thirty and in short: a mess! She's indecisive, a tad neurotic, and very socially awkward. Especially, when it comes to men. Deciding that she needs a change in her life and begins with changing careers. Her best friend convinces her to apply for a job as the assistant to a billionaire named Remington Davenport, who is seeking additional help due to an injury. This will expose Rayne to a different type of environment and hopefully get her out of the rut she's been in. After a bunch of "stretched truths" and finessing, Rayne gets the job... which puts her in direct contact with the mogul's gorgeously stoic son, Hale Davenport. Rayne fumbles her way along in her new career and eventually into Hale's sights. The challenge is, can Rayne have both? The man and the career of her dreams?

I laughed non-stop throughout this book. Rayne is a mess but a beautiful mess. I don't think there is a woman who cannot relate to some of the shenanigans that Rayne encounters when pursuing a career and relationship. She is just so damn likeable and relatable. While reading this book, you won't be able to help but literally shout and cheer when she scores a victory then facepalm and groan when her actions result in a hilariously epic fail.

I can't wait to go on to the next book, as this one unfortunately ends in a cliffy! Nevertheless, if you want a good laugh and steamy scenes, this is one to pick up! Well done, Lydia Micheals!

Happy reading!
