Romance Book Review! ~ The Two Week Roommate: A Grumpy / Sunshine Romance (Wildwood Society Romance Book 2)  by Roxie Noir

ABOUT:

We used to be best friends. Now we’re snowed in together.

There are probably worse things than being stuck in a remote cabin with the rugged-yet-grumpy forest ranger who saved my life in a blizzard. Getting mauled by a bear, for example, though I might prefer that to eating breakfast with Gideon Bell, the guy who nearly ruined my life when we were kids.

It was twenty years ago. We haven’t spoken since. Our families still hate each other, and our lives are completely different. I’m not sure we’ve got anything in common besides childhood memories.

But when it’s just the two of us for a couple of weeks, none of that really matters.

What matters is the way Gideon grumbles, but makes my tea exactly the way I like it. What matters is how he always gives me the spot on the couch closest to the fireplace. What matters is how he looks at me when he thinks I’m not paying attention.

And those childhood memories? He’s in all my favorites.

Up here, in the cabin, it’s easy to look past all that because it feels so good to kiss him. It’s easy to spend a wild night in front of the fireplace and wake up still wrapped together. But back in the real world, where everything that drove us apart is still alive and kicking? It’s a lot harder.

Can Gideon and I fix what broke twenty years ago, or does what happens in the cabin have to stay in the cabin?

The Two Week Roommate is the second book in the Wildwood Society series, and can be read as a total standalone. It’s for fans of high heat forced proximity romantic comedies, and features childhood friends-to-enemies-to-lovers who get snowed in together, a quirky, charming small town, a grumpy former military hero, a sunshine heroine who melts his heart, and plenty of steamy scenes. Of course, there’s an HEA.

The Two Week Roommate was a good romance with a surprising backstory that I really enjoyed. Gideon was all set to enjoy a holiday by himself in a tiny cabin on top of a mountain but a squirrel and a woman tied to a tree intervened and changed his plans.

From that moment forward, this story really takes off. The woman stuck to a tree in protest is none other than the former-best friend that he’d betrayed in a truly horrible way. It leads to many moments of awkwardness but it doesn’t stay that way for long.

I loved the friendship that existed between Gideon and Andi before everything went wrong and the way they were able to recapture it while stuck together on the mountain was really nice. I can admit that I had a hard time with Gideon at first, not solely because of what he did back then because he was a kid, but his struggle with the brainwashing he endured really kept him tied up in knots.

But his determination was and is worthy of admiration. He loved his siblings and he wanted a life different from how he was raised and–eventually–he went after it. This was the slowest of slow burns and it didn’t bother me at all. This was a surprising read that I really enjoyed.

Pregnant and married at the young age of eighteen, I settled into my life not knowing there could ever be more.
