Finding Mr. July
ByPublisher Description
She’s ready to do whatever it takes to get the job of her dreams, even if it means working with a pile of adorably unruly pups—and the office grump—in this charming contemporary rom-com perfect for fans of Rachel Lynn Solomon and Sarah Adams.
Intern Holly King knows there are pros and cons to everything, including competing in her nonprofit’s big fundraising competition.
The Pros:
The only con? Working with Jonathan Summers. But if Holly wants her calendar of hot, outdoorsy guys and their dogs to win against everyone else’s fundraising ideas, she’ll need Jonathan’s undeniable talent as a photographer ... even if he is a buzzkill.
When their collaboration accidentally gets off to a steamy start, Holly vows she won’t be distracted again. But as they scramble to shoot a year’s worth of hunks and pups in just a couple of weeks, the spark between Holly and Jonathan can’t be ignored.
With Holly’s career dreams finally coming into focus, whatever’s developing with Jonathan makes her wonder—could she be missing the bigger picture?

“Holly works for an environmental non-profit as an intern. At the end of her internship there's one final challenge that could get her a new job in Scotland. So she and 4 other interns need to compete by having fundraisers. Her idea is to create a calendar with men and puppies. <br/><br/>This started out great, the banter is wonderful and the opposites attract was a lot of fun. I love office romances so I was expecting this to be a new hit. I really liked Jonathan, how he grows and changes through the novel. However, around the halfway point this took a dive, things started to get weird and the characters lost their charm a bit, it didn't help at all that we had a third act conflict which was super unnecessary. <br/><br/>I didn't really like Holly, she was alright in the beginning but some things about her irked me, like how she is so good at her job, so perfectionist and such a good planner. And yet she plans her project badly, forget deadlines, reading important articles....<br/><br/>The romance was cute but I would have taken out some of the conflict parts, since there was already the potential of her having to move away to create tension. It’s a good book but definitely didn’t live up to my expectations.<br/><br/>Read this if you like:<br/>- Grumpy - Sunshine<br/>- FMC staring over in a new career<br/>- Great banter<br/>- Workplace Romance<br/><br/>Thank you NetGalley and Hachette Audio for this ALC. All opinions are my own. This book comes out on July 1st.”
