Sweatpants Season par Danielle Allen
I loved this book. Danielle Allen, you have a new fan in me. This book took me through a roller coaster of emotions from anger to YES GIRL YES to anger back to YES GIRL YES. The book takes on toxic masculinity full force while giving us a romance story at the same time. Long live sweatpants.
Why don't more people read Danielle Allen? She's witty and speaks to social issues and writes amazing and hot characters. This is my 3rd book by her and they have all been amazing.
5 "OMG, am I crying?" stars!
"Before you, I just existed. I didn't really live. I didn't really feel. I was going through the motions. And then I met you..." I stroked his face and gazed up at him. "And you brought me back to life."
This was me at 12:30am reading the end of this story...
Danielle Allen kindly provided me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review. I have to be completely honest and say that I freaking loved it!!
This is the story of young professional, Sahara, who has spent the last 10 years hating herself over a terrible tragedy she feels responsible for. In walks Ty "The Game Changer" Barker and emotionally damaged Sahara tries her best to avoid him...at first...
"I have to fight the desire to be around him, near him, on him. It would never work. Not after what I've done."
...but Ty is a super sexy business owner and entrepreneur who treats Sahara with patience and understanding. In no time, he is able to effortlessly steals Sahara's heart. (and mine, too!)
"His presence forced my head upward and once our eyes locked, everything I felt earlier- all the resistance and reasons why I should not pursue this, whatever it was- evaporated immediately."
Oh and things really do heat up after that!
"This is how a man is supposed to make you feel..."
But there are unfinished issues from Sahara's past that still need to be dealt with. For example, her feelings for her first love, Emanuel. Their "almost" relationship was cut short in the aftermath of the accident so many years ago. Their sudden reunion at a parole hearing for the drunk driver that destroyed their lives is unexpectedly intense. After 10 years of being apart, Emanuel doesn't want to stay away from her any longer.
"If I can't get over her. I have to try to have her."- Emanuel
If a girl is lucky she'll find one amazing guy who loves her, Sahara found two...
"Tyree Barker was my present, And Emanuel Mills is my unresolved past."
Decisions, Decisions...
I really loved this story, it took me by surprise. It was very well written, sexy, funny and heartbreaking. Danielle Allen is a new favorite of mine and I'll definitely be keeping an eye on her! I can't wait to read more of her work!

5 "I could not put it down" stars!
ARC provided by author in exchange for an honest review!
After reading Back to Life, I knew this story would only get better. In Back to Reality, Sahara is faced with a lot of tough choices. She needs to decide to take back her life and live it the way she wants, not the way she feels she deserves. She also must decide who she wants to share that new life with.
Her new love, Ty, is sex-on-stick wrapped with confidence and drive. Her first love, Emmanuel, is panty-dropping gorgeous with eyes that could claim your soul.
Uh, choose?! Well that's not exactly an easy thing to do!
Before she can choose, she needs to take a long hard look at herself. Holding on to ten years of guilt has done terrible things to her confidence.
"Everything is not always my fault."-Sahara
These words become her mantra because for so long she's blamed herself for things beyond her control and it needed to stop. She has to admit and accept some very hard facts about her herself in order to change and finally allow herself to be loved.
I loved that I could not predict how things would turn out in the end. I could easily see her with either guy. They both had qualities that made them equally irresistible. But...I did make a choice...and so did she!
"You're it for me. Even if the only reason you've come here is to break my heart and to tell me you want nothing to do with me anymore. That doesn't change anything on my end. You are the one." - Sahara
Yay! Let's just say that I got my wish!! It was an incredibly powerful moment! I felt that both Ty and Emmanuel were fairly represented and that the author treated them both with so much dignity and respect. No heartbroken guy hovering in the corner, thankfully! It just all made sense in the end and came together beautifully!
So to recap: I loved the plot, the characters, and the playlist. I devoured the life lessons on heart break and the renewal of spirit but my most favorite part was... ALL OF IT!
I'm a huge fan of Danielle Allen's and will read anything she writes!
