A copy of this book was provided by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Text Wars: May the Text be With You is a contemporary romance novel written by Whitney Dineen and Melanie Summers. Seraphina Lopez's interest and expertise has everything to do with astrology. As a businesswoman, she is constantly trying to find ways to improve and promote her lifestyle app 'Live for Your Star Sign'. Ben Williams, on the other hand, believes in 'true science'. A focused and dedicated astrophysicist who is forced to go on a talk show to captivate the American public. When Seraphina and Ben meet, they are like oil and water, however, there is no denying the underlying attraction they have for one another. Thank goodness for the secondary characters for being the voice of reason for both Seraphina and Ben who are quite stubborn and unwilling to admit when they are wrong. This book was funny, compelling, and exciting. Loved the banter the main characters had with each other. Just a bit of warning. This is an antagonists into love interest trope, so if you don't like constant bickering then this is not for you. The writing style also reminded me a bit of Meg Cabot's Boys Series (which I highly recommend if you like this book). More specifically, instead of an e-mail format dialogue, it is in the form of text messages. While this is the third book in the series, it could be a standalone. This book has definitely peaked my interest and leaves me wanting to read the others. For more of my reviews, please visit my blog ilovereading2016.wordpress.com
