Perfect Match
They couldn't be more different, but wild-at-heart (and in bed) Rose and sweet-but-square Tyler have to make it through a romantic Valentine's weekend to win the prize at the end - all while proving they're certainly, definitely,really not the perfect match the dating app proclaims them to be... right?
Rose
I went to my bestie’s over-the-top Valentine’s Day event alone, and when the first person I meet is straight-laced Tyler, I know I’m leaving alone, too. He’s all buttoned-up with nary a tattoo in sight, and he does math…for fun. In other words, definitely not my type. But when a dating app proclaims him my Perfect Match and offers up a pot of prize money if we spend a romantic weekend together, complete with an all-expenses paid luxury hotel and couples activities galore, I don’t need love as a motivator–that money will help save my fledgling, and failing, graphic design business. Now Tyler is looking at me like I’m the perfect box of chocolates, talking about indulging in one last fling before he settles down. Suddenly, I’m thinking Mr. All-Wrong-For-Me might be the perfect Mr. Right-Now.
Tyler
I went to a Valentine’s Day singles’ event looking for love and left with Rose, whose vivacious attitude and sunset-hued hair sets her apart from every woman I’ve ever dated. Even if her curvy body stirs up a wilder side in me I’ve always kept under wraps, she’s definitely not what I’m looking for in a long-term partner… or so I thought. But somewhere between hiking with goats, getting our nails painted, and Rose’s lessons on new and inventive ways to share our heart-shaped bed, I’m wondering if she might be just what I never knew I always needed. But when she’s determined to part when our wild weekend is done, how can I convince her we might be a perfect match after all?

Thank you to the author for an ARC in exchange for an honest review
I would recommend if you're looking for (SPOILERS)
-m/f contemporary romance novella
-insta attraction
-chaos tattooed one
-straight laced glasses wearing one
-opposites attract
-so much sexual tension
-sex lessons
-just a hookup
-praise kink
GAH I loved this one. A fun premise of being set up by an algorithm I adored that Rose and Tyler picked each other first. This was a great execution of the sex lessons trope. These two had such amazing chemistry. But I think my favorite part was that they both loved/appreciated things about the other that they had felt was a negative quality, really saw each other despite taking place over a brief amount of time.
CONSENT is hot and this book is hotter because of it. The checking in, figuring out what they other want, Gosh I was sweating reading this one. Add in some voyeurism, sex in public, these two couldn't keep their hands off each other. This was sex at its finest building the intimacy between these two as they also got to know and trust each other. Every time Rose said good boy had me screaming.
Just an awesome read and I can't wait to read what Eliza comes up with next.

Perfect Match de Eliza MClaine serie Holiday nights libro 2
Argumento:
No podrían ser más diferentes, pero la salvaje de corazón (y en la cama) Rose y el dulce pero cuadrado Tyler tienen que pasar un romántico fin de semana de San Valentín para ganar el premio al final, todo mientras demuestran que son ciertamente, definitivamente, realmente no es la pareja perfecta que la aplicación de citas proclama que son ... ¿verdad?
Rose
Fui sola al exagerado evento del Día de San Valentín de mi mejor amiga, y cuando la primera persona que conozco es el heterosexual Tyler, sé que también me iré sola. Está muy arreglado y no tiene ningún tatuaje a la vista, y hace matemáticas... por diversión . En otras palabras, definitivamente no es mi tipo.
Pero cuando una aplicación de citas lo proclama mi pareja perfecta y ofrece un premio en metálico si pasamos un fin de semana romántico juntos, con un hotel de lujo con todos los gastos pagados y muchas actividades para parejas, no necesito el amor como motivador. ese dinero ayudará a salvar mi incipiente y fallido negocio de diseño gráfico. Ahora Tyler me mira como si fuera la caja perfecta de chocolates, hablando de permitirse una última aventura antes de calmarse. De repente, estoy pensando que el Sr. Todo-Mal-Para-Mí podría ser el Sr. Ahora mismo perfecto.
Tyler
Fui a un evento de solteros del Día de San Valentín en busca del amor y me fui con Rose, cuya actitud vivaz y cabello color atardecer la distinguen de todas las mujeres con las que he salido.
Incluso si su cuerpo curvilíneo despierta un lado más salvaje en mí que siempre he mantenido en secreto, definitivamente no es lo que busco en una pareja a largo plazo... o eso pensé. Pero en algún lugar entre caminar con cabras, pintarnos las uñas y las lecciones de Rose sobre formas nuevas e ingeniosas de compartir nuestra cama en forma de corazón, me pregunto si ella podría ser justo lo que nunca supe que siempre necesitaba. Pero cuando está decidida a separarse cuando termine nuestro fin de semana salvaje, ¿cómo puedo convencerla de que, después de todo, podríamos ser una pareja perfecta?
Mi humilde opinión:
Perfect Match puede que sea el mejor romance con temática del día de los enamorados que leí hasta ahora.
Al principio creí que iba a ser otra historia repetitiva de concurso de citas San Valentín/opuestos se atraen/proximidad forzada pero me sorprendió MUCHO.
La historia de amor de Rose y Tyler fue divertida, tierna, traviesa, caliente y hasta sentida. La autora me hizo creer en este amor en pocos capítulos. Me encantó leer el crecimiento de la relación de Rose y Tyler. Desde que se conocen quieren realmente ayudar al otro y se alentaban de forma positiva a creer en uno mismo y por supuesto a confiar que son dignos de amor. Ellos se mejoraban mutuamente y eso me pareció lindo.
Hay muchas escenas de sexo pero de las buenas y con pastel de chocolate incluido! La tensión sexual fue para abanicarse con dos manos. Me gustó cómo la autora escribió estás escenas candentes, todo era sobre disfrutar pero con respeto y consentimiento.
Amé a Rose y Tyler, son una perfecta pareja dispareja. Los dos distintos en estilo y carácter con sus imperfecciones que los hicieron entrañables para mí.
Creí que el final ya lo sabía pero Tyler y Rose me volvieron a sorprender haciendo lo inesperado y yo estaba sonriendo de la emoción cuando se dan cuenta de sus sentimientos y hacen algo al respecto. El capítulo a meses después me dejó con todas las buenas sensaciones y el Sr. Spectacular se muda con ellos! Rose es la mejor!
Este es un librito de esos al que seguramente voy a volver y una autora de la que espero leer más.

Sixteen (technically 17) words to describe the 16 chapters (technically 17 including the epilogue) of this little novella. Yes, there’s a lot of sex but underneath it all, it’s actually more sweet than smut. Was a fun read.

4.5 rounded up
January 30, 2023
4.5⭐️ I loved Eliza’s Christmas novella, Santa Baby, and couldn’t wait to read Perfect Match, her Valentine’s Day themed spicy romance.
What to Expect:
Opposites Attract
Forced Proximity
“Teach Me”
Slow Burn
Public Displays of… Affection
I’m a total simp for a buttoned up, straight-laced hero, and Tyler was all that and more. I loved that he was an enthusiastic “student” who just needed some confidence in himself to break out of his shell, and Rose was the perfect partner to help him explore. I devoured this spicy novella quicker than the cake pictured in the background (this is the ”Seriously Big Chocolate Cake” from Cap City Diner in Columbus, OH).
Thank you Eliza for the advanced copy!

This was cute, from shy, reserved Tyler to bold and messy Rose, it was hot and fun and quick and I enjoyed the both of them brought something to the table, it wasn’t just Rose drawing Tyler out of his shell and helping him be more confident. He saw beyond her mess and helped her learn to love herself.

Some authors just know how to write a novella, and Eliza McLane is one of those authors. I adored the first novella in this duology, Santa, Baby, and Perfect Match is such a phenomenal follow up. This story of Rose and Tyler, opposites in every way except for the ones that matter, had me in a chokehold from the first chapter. I love these two. Like LOVE them. There is so much steam and spice in this Valentine's Day story, but it's also so full of heart and yearning and trust that I got a little weepy when it was over. The pacing is spectacular for this one-sitting read with McLane's trademark emotional depth and crisp, gorgeous prose. The steam was top notch and the scene in the restaurant with the chocolate cake will live rent free in my mind for the rest of my life.
January 19, 2023
Steamy, smart, and supremely tender, Perfect Match is chock full of delicious tropes—opposites attract! Sex lessons! Men who wear glasses!—to create a novella made for devouring in one sitting. As always, Eliza McLane masterfully weaves true intimacy into every sentence, building a foundation of respect, kindness, and love between her lead characters for a truly emotionally fulfilling experience. It’s impossible not to leave a little piece of your heart within the pages of her books when you’re finished, and Perfect Match is no exception.

Rose was a little annoying imo. It was short and cute. If you have a consent kink this is def your jam.

A light hearted Valentine's Day read. I thought Rose and Tyler had good chemistry.
Buttttt I did find everything else fairly unbelievable. I swear, contemporary romances really force me to suspend belief, more so than any other romance genre. I just can't buy it. While Rose and Tyler did have chemistry, I didn't think they had anything else going for them and I don't really see them as a couple. I also thought the plot was pretty dumb. However, I do think I'm the wrong demographic for this book, so it's likely a bit of a me issue. I found myself skimming paragraphs, even tho this is very short and only spans a weekend. Idk, if you're looking for a very low stakes V-day book that you can read in a day and is nicely steamy, then I would recommend this because it was fun enough, just nothing amazing 🤷♀️

This is a hot little novella full of consent, sex lessons, praise kink (his), and learning to appreciate the things about yourself that you thought were flaws.
Rose is a tattooed chaos girlie who likes one night stands and doesn't believe in love, and Tyler is a straightlaced accountant who is looking for forever. They shouldn't work, but when a dating algorithm matches them and gives them a luxury weekend together to test their compatibility, they agree. The weekend quickly shows how compatible they are, at least physically, but the emotional connection and vulnerability comes a bit slower. Despite the tight timeline, the pacing of this novella was excellent, it never felt rushed, and I believed the HEA by the end.

Such a delightful and hot novella. The characters complement each other perfectly. I loved their banter and even with such a short amount of pages it felt a bit like a slow burn. Which made their falling for each other believable, even if everything happens during just a weekend. Appreciated the epilogue 6 months later that give us a glimpse to their couple dynamic. Also, always love to see some bi representation.
It'll become a futur comfy reread for sure and I definitely want to read more from this author, starting with Santa, Baby: A Very Merry Novella next Christmas season for sure.

I would firstly just like to say a very big thank you to the author who very kindly forwarded me an arc copy of her book, for my kindle, in return for my honest review.
I randomly came across this author and loved the sound of this book. When i was given the chance to read an early copy i jumped at the chance and was extremely excited and trust me I was NOT disappointed.
I just couldn’t stop reading this book and finished it all in one day over two sittings! After each chapter the story just kept pulling me in and i had to read more to find out what was happening next!
I absolutely loved the two main characters, Rose and Tyler, the chemistry between them was amazing. I loved how completely opposite they are - Tyler is prim and proper, straight laced, vanilla and very down to earth. Rose is a firecracker who speaks her mind first and thinks later, has brightly coloured hair, tattoos and knows what she wants.
I loved how there was already an attraction between Tyler and Rose right from when they first laid eyes on each other.
Even though the sauce levels in this book are hot hot hot the way it is written is just so lovely and sweet - it’s just amazing and really made my heart very happy!
Perfect Match has the most amazing perfect ending and the epilogue was even better. I will definitely be coming back for more from this author and i absolutely cannot wait…….

Meh. 2.5 stars. There were some really cute parts of this novella, but there were also some phrases/wording that were just ick or laughable. The story itself was perfect. It was the writing that irked me, and the first couple chapters had a handful of grammatical errors.
Would have DNF’ed if not for reading with a group of friends.

Look, I tried with this book. I really really did. EVERYONE I know seems to love it, and it really does sound right up my alley. But HOLY CRAP the not like other girls energy is off the charts here. Rose is uninterested in love! So edgy! Bleh.

OMG this was soo bloody sweet!! Like literally one of the sweetest things I’ve read!!
Firstly this has got to be one of the best written examples of showing how you regularly check in and ask for consent with someone, especially at the beginning!! Like literally it kept making my heart feel gooey!!
These two were such an amazing example of opposite attract!! Like they couldn’t have been anymore different yet they worked so well together!!!
It really was so so cute!!

@twiceuponabook convinced me to buy this one when it was on sale, and I'm glad I did! A steamy, Valentine's Day, app/algorithm matching romance? Sign me up! Perfect for those looking for a buttoned-up accountant hero, a colorful, tattooed heroine, and a weekend away turned more.

eliza mclane knocks it out of the park again with perfect match 🔥 i squirmed. i smiled. i sighed. a spicy valentines novella that leaves you fulfilled

Perfect Match is perfectly sexy. A scorching hot take on opposites attract, Tyler and Rosie will tug at your heartstrings while setting you on fire. A satiating fix for your romance sweet tooth- and after you read this, you will SURELY be craving sweets. You'll see ;)
My favorite thing about Eliza's writing, besides the spice, is how genuinely nice her characters are, no matter what they are navigating. They may not always see eye-to-eye, but they aren't slinging barbs. It's a special kind of sexy!
Note: I am friends and CP's with the author, but my review would be the same either way!

In case you missed Santa, Baby a few months ago, here’s your next chance to get on the amazing ride that is Eliza McLane’s smutty holiday novella series! This time she brings us an opposites-attract, forced proximity Valentines weekend getaway complete with teach me vibes, “it’s just sex” (lol), public shenanigans, and all of the heat and sweetness that I’ve come to expect when I pick up one of her books.
My favorite thing about this was the slow burn despite the fact that it’s a novella. Somehow Eliza manages to really build the relationship and intimacy between her characters in a short amount of time, which just makes the spice even more satisfying. The caring that develops between Rose and Tyler was so lovely to watch; I adored how they really appreciated each other and made the other one better for it. The chocolate cake scene wasn’t the only sweet treat in these pages!
I loved this little novella – the heat (temperature) and warmth (emotion) it exudes are off the charts and I’m so excited for Eliza’s next story! If you’re looking for some sweet and steamy fun for Valentine’s day, don’t miss this one!

Another great novella by Eliza! I loved this one so much that I read it in one sitting. Tyler and Rose are total opposites, especially when it comes to relationships. I love nerdy heroes sooo much, and it was so good to see him unravel thanks to Rose. Also, it’s unusal to see the guy being the one who’s looking for romance and is eager to fall in love, and I enjoyed every moment. The steam was as good as in SANTA, BABY. My favorite steamy reads are the ones that manage to be cute as well, and this one has the perfect balance. I really recommend Eliza’s novellas! I’m always ready for more!
