A big thank you to Forever Publishing for gifting me a review copy of How Sweet It Is by Dylan Newton.

I could not have adored this book more, and it was absolutely the perfect book to read this month. I could practically feel the chill of the fall air and smell the woodsmoke as if I was actually in Wellsville, New York. The characters were absolutely delightful too, from Kate's can-do attitude to Drake's reputation as the Knight of Nightmares to the adorable shih tzu named Sasha, with a bark bigger than her stature. The supporting crew of characters were just fabulous too. Plus, it made me laugh. Out loud. A lot.

There wasn't a dull moment in this book. Not one. From cringe-worthy (but extremely funny) first meetings to swoon-worthy intimate moments, and you know...tombs full of bats. I could not get enough.

We invited Dylan Newton to come hang out with the Three Friends Book Club and we had the best chat, she is just delightful! She told us about her writing process, how this book came about, and what’s coming up next. I’m excited to tell you that there will be more books in this series, yay!

Synopsis:

Event planner Kate Sweet is famous for creating the perfect happily-ever-after moment for her clients’ dream weddings. So how is it that her best friend has roped her into planning a bestselling horror writer’s book launch extravaganza? But the second Kate meets—or rather, accidentally maims—the drop-dead-hot Drake Matthews, her well-ordered life quickly transforms into an absolute nightmare.

Drake Matthews is tired of the spotlight and tired of his reputation as the Knight of Nightmares. He's really a nice guy! But he’s not prepared for Kate, a fearless agent of chaos in steel-tipped stilettos, or for that sweet sting of attraction he feels for her. She’s inspiring him to take his writing in a whole new direction—one that no one expects. Because now Kate and Drake are changing up the rules, and this plot twist might just surprise everyone . . . including themselves.
