With Greta Gets the Girl, Melissa Marr (Remedial Magic) delivers another steamy contemporary romantic comedy. "Lee" and "Marie" meet on an exclusive lesbian hookup app and believe their connection will end after their one-night stand (okay, it's two nights). After all, they don't use their real names, they meet at a hotel, they don't live in the same city, and neither wants a relationship. When Kaelee travels to New York to finally meet the editor of her debut sapphic novel, she comes face to face with the formerly anonymous hookup she couldn't get out of her mind. Both women realize that their simple yet electrifying fling now risks bleeding into their professional lives and that their connection could cloud the legitimacy of the book release.
Greta Gets the Girl is capital-S Sexy but also packs a strong emotional punch. Kaelee and Greta show all the signs of people falling hard for each other despite a determination to stay single. The women demonstrate maturity as they navigate their growing interest with clear, honest communication and respected boundaries.
Second in a series, Greta Gets the Girl heavily features the lead characters from the previous installment, Toni and Addie Go Viral, so readers will appreciate reading them together. Nonetheless, Greta and Kaelee's charm makes their story enjoyable as a stand-alone as well. Full of heart and heat, Greta Gets the Girl is sure to please any reader who enjoys watching relationships bloom unexpectedly. --Alyssa Parssinen, freelance reviewer and former bookseller
