Description

After getting canned from her dream job this morning and played in spectacular fashion by her boyfriend this afternoon, Savannah “Savvy” Valentine is having a truly awful day. Which is why she’s currently drowning her sorrows in whiskey and self-pity in a shabby bar along the route to Las Vegas.
In light of today’s double whammy, Savvy isn’t sure why she’s still heading in the direction of her five-year high school reunion. The only reason she’d wanted to attend the reunion in Vegas in the first place was to show the captain of the football team, the guy who took her virginity and then promptly rejected her, that the captain of the math team grew up to have all enviable hot things: hot body, hot boyfriend, and hot career. Now, the only “hot” thing about Savvy Valentine is her mess.
But when a gorgeous stranger with sandy hair, a leather jacket, and motorcycle helmet walks into the bar, Savvy’s awful day suddenly looks a whole lot brighter. The man is perfection. Sexy and mysterious. And he’s heading to Las Vegas, too.
Can one wild night with a sexy stranger in the middle of nowhere lead a girl to fall desperately and deeply in love in Las Vegas? Savvy Valentine is about to find out.
Misadventures is a romantic series of spicy standalone novels, each written or co-written by some of the best names in romance. The stories are scandalous, refreshing, and, of course, incredibly sexy. They’re the perfect bedside read, a ‘quick blush’ for the reader who loves a page-turning romance.

    When street smarts and book smarts mix, the result is beautiful. Aidan and Savvy came from very different backgrounds but came together to complete each other. Definitely some unexpected twists and turns in this one. Lauren Rowe has done it again.

    I love a Lauren Rowe book; she has never disappointed me! She always has the perfect combination of humor, heat & heart, & this book is no exception. I laughed out loud on the very first page and throughout the book! Then Aiden & Savvy together added the heat which continued throughout the book & made me hot & bothered! Lastly, the heart - I felt so much emotion for Savvy & Aiden, for their journey & I was rooting for them the whole time. Even the ending made me cry & smile at the same time! I fell in love in with this Rebound & so will you!

    You just can't go wrong with Lauren Rowe! I love the Misadventure series!
Misadventures on the Rebound is the story of Savvy and Aiden. Their chemistry is on fire! Wickedly white hot!
Savvy is a math nerd trying to improve herself. Wanting to show everyone at her high school reunion she is doing amazing things with her life!  When things in her life don't go so well, she still travels home...(Las Vegas!?! Yes please!) And at a pit stop at a bar she meets Aiden.
Oh Aiden! What a backstory this man has! He is has been handed a bad hand in life.  He wants to do better, start with a clean slate. But that's just not in the cards! And so their adventure starts! Loan sharks, birthday parties, algorithms and so much more.  You get the swoons, you get the smexy times, you will get all the feels and more!  Ms. Rowe never lets you down! Get this story, enjoy the hijinxs!

    Where do I begin with this review? As always when reading a favorite author, I wonder, where did it begin? Where did my love for their writing occur? Was it recommended by an Amazon bot that thought I would like the book, did a friend suggest it, or did the author reach out? It feels like a lifetime ago that I found Lauren Rowe as an author, and yet, according to Goodreads was only three years. Well, many stories later, I'm still a huge fan of Lauren's writing and books. This, is her latest release, a part of the Misadventures Series, and is just as refreshing and wonderful as ever. This story begins with Savvy and how the twist of the universe, fate, or whatever gives her the big finger. Contrary to her name, she is a hot mess just trying to survive in a world that wants to drown her. I loved the personality that Lauren gave Savvy. I mean there were so many times that she could wallow, and while she had her moments to come to grips with what happened, she flipped fate the finger and kept on moving forward. Savvy had a quirkiness about her that was easy to like. She was fun and spontaneous but cautious and guarded at the same time. The entire time I read the story, I felt Savvy grow and become the awesomest version of herself. Aiden was a guy who needed fate to give him a little luck. He has a past but doesn't want to have it repeating itself. His journey lands him smack in the middle of Savvy's curse to the fates and need to leap out of her norm. What Aiden didn't expect was how Savvy's not so savvy ways penetrated his heart. Lauren made you feel Aiden's internal struggle. Each time he wanted to go one way but went the opposite, you felt what he was feeling. I'm not quite sure I've read a character like Aiden before. None come to mind, and that made him uniquely original to me. Watching how he helped Savvy become more than savvy showed him growing into more. He has a heart of gold and the action that follows him will have you laughing, but at the same time what he does for Savvy, will have your heart melting. It was such a fun fast paced story to read. I couldn't put it down and consumed this in three hours. It was light-hearted with some drama but overall just gave you laughs, heart mushiness, and cheers for the ending. Lauren did an excellent job on the plot, arc, and flow of the story. I didn't feel like I was left in the dark about any little nugget of information she fed us. It's one of the things I enjoy immensely about her work. I definitely recommend this book if you like contemporary romances with some fun antics and a whole lot of heart. 5 pirouetting pointe shoes from this blogger.
