While this is a short read, I really enjoyed reading No Strings Attached. Sorry if this is a spoiler for anyone, but it is truly a good read. Tony and Gabe are so fun. I think the way Renee drew their friendship closer was beautifully executed. I can only imagine how hard it must be to be IN love with your best friend and not be able to tell them. When Tony moves in with Gabe things start to heat up a little, Renee brings them together tastefully, not overpowering. This is a quick read but the beginning to a wonderful friendship and love story. Although Gabe thinks she just wants to be friends with benefits, I find myself wondering if Tony can take it. He expresses to her that he wants more, yet Gabe is persistent. Does she realize she really is in love with Tony... How long will this last? Does Gabe fall for Tony, is it a happily ever after?!?! Guess I know my next read as I patiently wait for Stray(part2). Good Job!

I got to beg Renee Swann for a copy of No Strings Attached for an honest review. No actually she thought I would enjoy her short story and asked if I would give an honest review. I am really glad I was able to...
I am not a huge novella fan. I personally think they are just too short and sometimes just don't give enough for a story, but No String Attached gave me better opinion of novellas.
This is a super short and super cute book about 2 friends that are attracted to each other, but just aren't sure if they want to take the plunge and transfer their friendship into something more. It really was a good story about how a relationship can start or just keep it as friends.
I highly recommend this for a short and super cute read. Tease, book .5 in the start of this series gives the book in Tony's side.

I don't even know what to think about this. It was short but felt eternal. And halfway through, out of left field a completely different story happens with totally different people. What?? It came back to Tony and Gabby at the end but by then I was just skimming to get through it.
And don't get my started on the spelling and editing mistakes. Painful.

Wow, I don't usually slam a book, because I am In fact hard to please. However, this book was not worth the .99 I spent. It was hard to follow, super short, underdeveloped characters and basically not well done. I will say that this book could have been good, just was not executed well
