Review: Just Right

Just Right book cover on blue background

Continuing on with some light-hearted novellas, A.M. Heath released Just Right a little earlier this year, which is a fun retelling of Goldilocks, complete with some unexpected houseguests. Though I read it a while back, its cute premise fits in with the Restful August Challenge theme!

Book Synopsis

Meeting just the right guy would have been easy … if she hadn’t dated his older brother first.

Georgia Quinn has two jobs, a decaying house, and a timid roommate. Everything changes when she discovers her roommate’s two brothers secretly staying in her house while she’s at work. If that isn’t bad enough, one brother is her ex-boyfriend and the other is her newest crush. And now they all want to stay with her.

Matthew Bruin finally meets the perfect girl for him … until he learns that she’s his brother’s ex. Stepping aside would be easier if Rex wasn’t asking for his help in winning Georgia back.

With the four of them living under one crumbling roof, there’s plenty that can go wrong, but is there anything that can go just right?

Book Thoughts

This was an adorable story between Georgia and Matthew where Georgia ends up with the brother that is just right for her. A comical and creative retelling of Goldilocks, this was a fun read that showed the dilemma between picking from good enough and the best. The antics that Georgia got herself into were quite funny, and Matthew’s responses were just as charming and thoughtful.

A.M. Heath has a knack for writing love triangles that don’t make readers cringe, which I truly appreciate. Rather than drawing out the suspense for long periods, the author instead uses it to help characters better understand who they are and who they want to be with. If you’re looking for a short novella that offers an adorable meet cute and a quirky family to boot, Just Right is the right book to pick up.
