Release Blitz! Thirty-Five and Single by Terri E. Laine #ThirtyFiveAndSingle #ReleaseBlitz




USA Today Bestselling Author, Terri E. Laine, brings a new standalone, funny but sexy novel, Thirty-five and Single.

What can go wrong when you’re getting divorced from your high school sweetheart, it's your thirty-fifth birthday and you have too much to drink?

Throw in the gorgeous neighbor who comes to the rescue when you can't seem to open your apartment door after all the alcohol and end up taking a drunken slip and slid across the floor.

Then you look up into his gorgeous face and forget all the reasons why it’s a bad idea to hook-up with said twenty-something neighbor. In fact, it’s a fan-freaking-tastic idea.

Now let the games begin because this is Olivia's life: - interfering sisters, the ex, co-workers… and Joel, her way too sexy, too young, but oh so hot neighbor.

Wanting to explore single life, Olivia fights her growing connection with Joel. Only he’s is determined to prove to her that age is just a number and she’s is his number one.


I think that the only thing that I didn't like about this book, was the fact that it was simply too short. Apart from that it had it all - the drama, the tears, the laughter and the love and to top it off - it also had amazing and interesting characters whose chemistry was great and who made you feel that they belonged together. 
Oh, well, the reader knows it loooong before Olivia realizes what really counts and that sometimes, age is really just a number. A character like Joel is mature beyond his age and his love for Olivia is strong enough to help him overcome all her barriers and doubts. 

I loved his honesty and the way he took care of those around him and, well, even though I could understand Olivia, I was also a bit upset that she didn't understand what really counts. When she had to face the ultimate betrayal, I got so mad....ugh. I was just happy that Joel was there for her no matter what happened. 

The story was fast paced and some parts could have been more intense, more developed but the many twists and turns kept me on my toes and kept me glued to my reader, not allowing me to put it down till the very end. Not everything was unicorns and rainbows and despite the funny and spirited story, there were also serious undertones that kept it from getting too fluffy and sparkling. I really enjoyed reading this book and will definitely read it again.
