Book Summary:
Breaking up is hard to do!
Natalie should be on top of the world dating Jeremy. He’s totally perfect by everyone’s standards. But the seemingly fl awless couple have been dating since freshman year, and now Natalie fears the spark may be fizzling.
Being such an “expert” in love, Natalie gets coaxed into writing a romance column, and soon she finds spending time with her editor, Matt, to be way worth the work. There’s just one catch. Matt is Jeremy’s best friend, and dumping your boyfriend for his closest friend is just wrong…right?
Review:
You know, it’s hard for me to not love any of these Simon Pulse Romantic Comedy books. Sure, there are some I don’t like as much as others (one I read about snowboarding, for instance – I don’t know much about it at all and was not intrigued), but if I’m looking for a cute, short, light read? I love them. They are also tiny and can fit in a bag nicely. Oh AND the ebook editions are only 5.99. Which makes them even more awesome.
Love Off-Limits was another Simon Pulse Rom Com hit with a journalist perspective. Natalie works at a newspaper and starts to get close to her editor. The plot isn’t much deeper than that, but does have lots of fun moments – plus the whole romance thing. Hence calling them romantic comedies.
Love Off-Limits wasn’t my favorite of the Rom Coms, but it’s not one that I would not recommend, either (if that makes sense)! If you’re headed to the beach or a vacation or a trip on a plane, these are excellent. And if I find a Rom Com that I probably wouldn’t recommend, I’ll be sure to let you know

LOL, ok only a little confused – Was that a double negative?
“it’s NOT one that I would NOT recommend”, so that means that you would recommend it?
Or you just wouldn’t necessary not recommend it? LOL
Ok now I’m just pickin on you!

Haha yes, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it as my first choice for the Simon Pulse rom-coms but it was still ok

Y’know, I’ve never read one of Simon Pulse’s rom-coms. This one sounds cute, but I’d rather start with one you REALLY recommend. Faves? =)

I think my favvv was Major Crush by Jennifer Echols!
But that may be because I was in marching band a few years so the topic hit well with me. So you could do that too – look for one that has a topic you like and read it first! They don’t take very long to read, very small books! You need to let me know when you read one!!
