As a big fan of friends to lovers romance, I was really excited for Imperfect Match. Corinne Michaels has written quite a few books I've really loved, so I knew in combination with Melanie Harlow, I would be in for a treat!

Imperfect Match sucked me right in from the start and I couldn't put it down. I'm a fast reader, but I really flew through this one. The writing was amazing and I could picture everything that was going on and I really connected with the characters. You just can't help but smile while reading about Willow and Reid's friendship.

I loved how well Willow and Reid fit as friends. I heard someone say that they loved this book so much, because they were truly friends. And I have to agree. In most books it's always clear that one character has had feelings for the best friend from the start, but didn't want to admit it. With Willow and Reid it wasn't until she was going to match him with his perfect match, but also her wanting to go to a fertility clinic. It's like you saw light bulbs shining above our characters realizing there were feelings there.

Willow loves her friendship with Reid and it's easy. She wants a family, but doesn't necessarily need a man to do so. All she needs is to get everything going to take over her mother's matchmaking service so she can retire. I love that she has a hard time connecting people though. It's like she had to learn what she wants and feels before she can do that with anyone else.

Reid isn't a relationship man. He loves his friendship with Willow and sleeps around, but after everything happening with his family growing up, he swears he will never turn into his father. I love how sweet he is and any guy who will watch This is Us scores points in my book! Reid may seem macho and a tad arrogant, but there's so much more than meets the eye! I think while fighting to not be his father, he doesn't really how great of a person he is on his own!

There is a lot of chemistry between Reid and Willow and I had a smile on my face while reading them tease each other and hang out. And when the romance starts, it's definitely steamy! For me they just matched and that's it! Even though the book is a bit slow in the beginning, I still enjoyed every minute. On the other hand, the ending seemed to go a bit fast. I would've liked to have seen it develop more. It's like everything was out in the open and all okay again. I kind of missed the whole part of the characters really thinking about everything and working it out. It seemed just a bit too easy at times!

And I have to mention Willow's sister Aspen. She's so much fun. I loved how unique she was and even though she may think in different ways, she's there for Willow no matter what. I definitely wouldn't mind a story for her!

All in all, Imperfect Match is an amazing friends to lovers romance. It has great characters, humor, steamy moments and they talk about This is Us, need I say more?!? These two authors definitely need to continue writing together, because it really works!
