Review: Why Not Tonight


 ✩✩


Natalie Kaleta will do anything for the artists at her gallery, including risk life, limb and the effect of humidity on her naturally curly hair. Braving a downpour to check on reclusive Ronan Mitchell, Natalie gets stranded by a mudslide at his mountain home, where the brooding glass artist reveals his playful side, sending her inconvenient crush from under-the-radar to over-the-top.
After a secret tore apart his family and made him question his sense of self, Ronan fled his hometown for Happily Inc, but the sunny small town can’t fix his damaged heart. He won’t give in to his attraction for beautiful, perpetually cheerful Natalie. She’s untouched by darkness—or so he thinks.
Natalie knows that when a heart goes through the flame, it comes out stronger. Life may not be a fairy tale, but sometimes dreams do come true. Why not this one? Why not tonight?


Genre: contemporary romance

Publication date: September 2018

Mature content: yes

Review: Why Not Tonight is a good, solid romance story, and a great addition to the Happily Inc series. I didn't find it outright amazing and, when taken together with the other books in the series, besides the fact that the last Mitchell brother is finally getting hitched, it's kind of more of the same.

I also found the writing a bit repetitive, with characters thinking or doing exactly the same things in different parts of the book. And I didn't like Ronan very much. I know he has his reasons, but he just sounds ungrateful and egotistic over half the time - though that is just my personal opinion and does not impact on how the book is written or in the way the story flows. I do enjoy characters with creative streaks - which both Natalie and Ronan have, in totally different ways - and their success story is inspiring.


Despite my rantings above, Why Not Tonight is still a feel-good book that will keep you company for a few well spent hours. 

Happy readings,
