Summary

Tangled up in love and in the sheets...

Gemma Turney is a walking contradiction. A short-tempered, foul-mouthed vegan yogi and environmentalist with a tongue sharp enough to bring a lesser man to his knees. Fortunately, I am not one of those men.

When we’re thrown together for a wedding, she does everything she can to get under my skin. Which works, just not in the way she’s hoping. She’s a thorn in my side that I have no interest in removing.

So it’s no surprise that one minute we're nose to nose in an argument, and the next I have her pinned against the wall.

Because keeping her mouth busy is the only way my girl is ever quiet.

Review

For me, Tangled Up struggled to find a healthy balance between a sworn worthy romance and a romance where two people need to break up. In summary, Gemma and Jason are two different people. Gemma is an environmentalist vegan who has no problem speaking her mind. And Jason is a meat loving engineer who is prim and by the books. They start off to a rocky start, but neither one of them can leave each other’s mind and because of a wedding, they are forced to spend a lot of time together.

I think the main issue I had with this book is when they were bad-- they were really bad and would hurl dozens of insults at each other. It just screamed toxic. I wished that somewhere in their relationship the two of them got couple’s therapy. Because when they were good, they were really good. And I enjoyed their scenes with each other, and I felt the chemistry, and I was sucked into their journey.

Final Thoughts

Tangled Up fails in balancing out a romance with two characters with completely different personalities. Although they do have strong moments within the book, their next moments were then followed by an insulting rant. And in addition, the book doesn’t fully develop the characters in a way that sheds clichés. This mainly directed at the depiction of Gemma.
