Looking for a good book to cozy up with this holiday season? Well make it A Toast To The Good Times because not only will this bad boy warm you up, it will set you on fiyah!!! (don't worry, that will be my only attempt at a Boston accent)Oh Landry and Mila.... how I love thee let me count the ways. As a book geek myself I LOVE that Mila is into dorky stuff and wears "Team Darcy" underwear. Ha! And that even though Landry and Mila have been roommates and "just friends" for a while, there is SO much more there....Landry just needs to wake up and smell the coffee.  Just loved cute and adorable Mila! And Landry? Yes please and thank you. Yes... you will be eating this bartender up for breakfast. What's really neat is that even though it's all from the guy's POV, you can feel what Mila feels too. You see her be bold and attempt to open Landry's eyes to what she's got in the very beginning.... setting you up to root for them from the get go. And what does that say about the amazing writing that we can feel what Mila feels where we're hearing it from Landry's point of view?!?!The authors are crazy talented... that's what it says!! Liz + Steph = perfection. Seriously, what's not to like in their books? I used to hate when authors would team up to write a book together because sadly I would think one of those authors was lame, and you could hear which author wrote each part in the book and it just didn't work. Not so with Liz and Steph! It's like they share a brain... a super brain of awesomeness. Realistic male point of view, realistic broken characters, witty dialogue, and a passion between the characters that will have you GLUED to the book! That's what all of Liz and Steph's books are- the ones where you can.not.put.them.down.Now it may seem like I'm related to one of them or paid to write this, but I WISH!!! (read all my other reviews to see I didn't just create an account to sell this book ;) ) That would be a dream of mine- to meet all these cool authors and have margaritas! Set it up you awesome authors! No wait- never mind. Get back to writing... I need some more of your crack!If you've never read one of their books, then come over to the dark side. You'll never be the same. ;)Get this book, you'll be glad you did!!!!! Then get Lengths. And everything else they've written. And when you're done- get The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay. And then re-read Fall Guy from Liz and send her an email to pressure her to write the next book in the series. ;)Ah- and I LOVED the cover!!!
