** #1 Best Selling Romantic Comedy **Jason Thorn... My brother's childhood friend.Oh, how stupidly in love with that boy I was. He was the first boy that made me blush, my first official crush. Sounds beautiful so far, right? That excitement that bubbles up inside you, those famous butterflies you feel for the very first time--he was the reason for them all. But, you only get to live in that fairytale world until they crush your hopes and dreams and then stomp on your heart for good measure. And boy did he crush my little heart into pieces.After the stomping part he became the boy I did my best to stay away from--and let me tell you, it was pretty hard to do when he slept in the room right across from mine.When tragedy struck his family and they moved away, I was ready to forget he ever existed.Now he is a movie star, the one who makes women of all ages go into a screaming frenzy, the one who makes everyone swoon with that dimpled smile of his. Do you think that's dreamy? I certainly don't think so. How about me coming face to face with him? Nope still not dreamy. Not when I can't even manage to look him in the eye.Me? I'm Olive, a new writer. Actually, I'm THE writer of the book that inspired the movie he is about to star in on the big screen. As of late, I am also referred to as the oh-so-very-lucky girl who is about to become the wife of Jason Thorn.Maybe you're thinking yet again that this is all so dreamy? Nope, nothing dreamy going on here. Not even close.

This book is for everyone who once loved a boy and felt those butterflies overwhelm them in the best possible way.

And, well, if the boy didn’t love you back, shame on him! What a jerk.

no skips, a quick read! i’ll prolly re-read this soon because i can’t get over jasonolive’s dynamics! (domestic!jasonolive gimme more)

it was a bit underwhelming. but i still enjoyed reading this one

This is one book I’ve been wanting to read since I got back into reading several years ago. I have finally read it and really enjoyed it. The premise of the book is really fun and I enjoyed how it all played out. I did like how the third act break up wasn’t drawn out and was able to tie back to the beginning of the book. I did like the main side characters especially Lucy and what she added to the story. I’m excited for her book to say the less. The only negative would be that the writing of some of the scenes felt a bit cheesy as I was reading.

Of course, I decided to end the year with a cute romance. Cute and veryyyy steamy. Jason Thorn knows his way around the bedroom or any other room, I'll tell you that. The plot was cute but the development was meh. The struggle felt lazy and it happened very clumsily at a point in the story where it didn't make any sense. I'm giving this 3 stars because the romance and the smut was ON POINT.

Cute book, Jason was not the asshole you want him to be

This review is just going to focus on one scene in the book - could be slightly spoilery. Also, sexual assault trigger warning.

This book had such promise, but oof. I could not overlook that scene where Olive is drunk and basically forces Jason's hands inside her. Like, the dude actually said, "Please stop, Olive.". I get that obviously he wanted to and was probably saying stop because he knew it was wrong since she was drunk out of her mind and she eventually stops, but still.. this is not ok?? 

AND THEN, to top it off, the scene ends with him deciding he'll give her an orgasm so that maybe she will go to sleep. Sure, she asked for it, but again.. she. is. drunk. Also not ok?? I don't know. Maybe I am overreacting, but this whole scene made me feel so icky and I'm kinda surprised more reviews didn't talk about this. 

I realize that we know Olive had already expressed her desire to have sex Jason by this point and maybe I would have felt different if they had already slept together, but this was their first sexual experience with each other. Like, how are you going to do this when she isn't going to remeber? (and, in fact, actually doesn't remember).

I don't think I've ever given a 1 star review, but this is gonna be a no for me. Such a shame cause the rest was pretty cute, but I cannot in good conscience give a higher rating after that scene. Especially as someone with my own experiences with something like that. Big pile of yikes.

Enter Olive, living my dream life as a best-selling author of a romance novel that she based off on her childhood crush (but she still loves him to this day), Jason Thorn. Jason, who is a celebrity with a bad reputation in the industry gets the opportunity to star in the film adaptation of guess who's book? Yup, you guessed it, Olive.

When I first read the synopsis for this book, the idea of this storyline intrigued me. I thought it would be a unique plot. Reading this book was such a joy! But after letting the book sink in for a day or two, I came to the conclusion that the plot wasn't as deep as I thought. The more I studied the book, I realized the plot felt a bit... shallow. BUT this is a good thing if you're a reader who is in the mood for something quick to get through. I swear on it, THIS is the book that will get you out of a slump. The writing style is easy to digest, the plot isn't complicated, and you have many lovable characters.

Speaking of lovable characters, let's talk about my favorite character - Lucy. My goodness, she is everything. As I was buddy reading this with Bray (@braysbooks on IG), we both came to the conclusion that she was one of the best characters we ever met. She's bold, wants what's best for Olive, supports Olive, just as much as Olive wants her best friend to be happy. When I found out Lucy was the female MC in To Hate Adam Connor (the second book in this duet), I squealed in delight. I am absolutely ready to read her love story.

Now, as for our main focus (sorry, got a little carried away with loving Lucy haha), Olive and Jason. From the start, I knew Jason had a special spot for Olive, despite how much younger she was by him. When Jason came back into her life, Olive was so jumpy about it and Jason came on strong. I just loved his charms and how he wasn't afraid to go after her. Though Olive was taken aback by who was the leading role in her movie, her feelings came rushing back and the absolute tension between these two! There's this one scene where Olive goes to Jason's house for the first time and it had me SCREAMING. The intimate moments they shared -- especially during their fake marriage was everything to me. I adore the cheesiness of their relationship and loved the HEA. Nothing can beat that adorable epilogue.

Go pick this up and fall in love with this book!

75% of the time i felt secondhand embarrassment from things olive said and did. she and jason were cute at times but i didn’t really buy into their love, especially on jason’s side

To Love Jason Thorn is a cliché but beautifully written story in the dual POV of Olive and her love interest Jason. The book started off when Olive was still a child and had a huge crush on her brothers best friend. It was insanely clingy to read in young Olives POV but after the first few chapters the book really kicks off and draws readers in. If your on the fence about reading this book, know that it is super cliché but only in the best way possible.

“I kept my promise to you. I told you that I would never forget you Olive Thorn, and it looks like my heart never did, sweetheart. My world is a less scary place with you in it, baby. I will kiss you a thousand times every day if that’s what it takes to keep you in love with me for the rest of our days.”


Miss Ella Maise did it again!! She became one of my fave authors just with Marriage For One and loved this one with everything I have too! Jason and Olive stole my heart since the first sentence and Im obsessed with them!! If you haven't read this tbh I don't know what you're waiting for!!!!


  “You stole my little heart with just one dimple, you sneaky little thief. I never managed to fall out of love with you after that. I don’t think I know how to.”

Jason thorn is one of my many dream boys. Seriously. I was up to the first few chapters and had already fallen in love with him. This is just another reason why l standards are getting higher and higher. 

This book had multiple tropes. Brothers best friend, marriage of convenience. Ella Maise did an amazing job with this book as well as her others. But this one is my personal favourite and it’s ranking top 5 of my favs. 

Definitely read this book!!!!

“Surprisingly, you’ve been the best kind of heartache, Jason Thorn.”

MY GOD WHAT A BOOK. IT BAD BROTHERS BEST FRIEND, PROTECTIVE BROTHER, ONE BED TROPE AND FAKE MARRIAGE TROPE ??? what more could a girl ask for?

((i promise the graphic designed cover of this book is so cute and if you are deterred by the man on the cover, i understand completely but please look past it))
