Sara Ney has taken the romantic comedy to a next level with romantic comedies! This was my first book by this author, but I really need more now. A few friends of mine are big fans and I understand why! This book made me laugh, swoon and be very thankful I'm not single in this day and age, haha.

Abe isn't our typical jock. He's serious about school and very smart. He loves wrestling, but it's starting to get old. Abe loves the ladies like most of his teammates, but he's looking for something more serious than just a night of fun. 

Skylar likes being social, but doesn't feel the need to go out and party all the time. She's just as happy with a book or bingewatching a TV show at home with her best friend. She's a feisty one, but a lot of fun. Skylar is also looking for a more serious relationship, but most guys she meets only have one thing on their mind. When her friends convince her to join the dating app, it definitely goes differently than planned. 

Besides the lines at the beginning of every chapter, reading their conversations on the app was so much fun. I'm a big fan of books with e-mails or messaging and this book had a good balance in the beginning. I knew from the start that Abe pretending to be his roommate was going to turn ugly, especially after he chats with Skylar. It was so much fun to watch play out though. Even though events like this aren't original, this author gives it her own spin.

I love the connection that Skylar and Abe have as soon as they start chatting (even though Skylar doesn't know it's him). These characters were so much fun. Skylar is relatable in many ways and Abe has made my book boyfriend list. He's the type of guy us women need more of! The drama once the truth came out wasn't too much and all I wanted was them to live happily ever after. I couldn't put this book down and read it almost completely in one sitting!

The Lying Hours is a great romcom that makes you laugh, swoon, smile and restores hope in the modern dating world (except JB and some of the other guys Skylar first talks to). Abe and Skylar are definitely characters that will stay with me for awhile.
