This has to be one of the zaniest, most charmingly funny and entertaining romance novels I've read in a long time. I think we romance readers have come to take romance a little too seriously - the angsty plot, the broken characters, turmoil and raging hormones.Worst Week Ever has none of that. Instead, it offers characters that are a bit over the top going through situations that are a bit unbelievable at times but never dull. This book goes from one bizarre moment to the next, carrying the reader on a great adventure that is full of laughs. It was extremely entertaining and I had a hard time putting the book down.The male protag is the quintessential 'billionaire' from family money, complete with servants, a penthouse and a Long Island Estate. He has some anger issues, but he's written in a way that makes his outlandish toddler-resembling behaviour endearing. He also has a big heart underneath all the rough edges.The female protag is about the only one who can see that heart. She just has to get through the worst and craziest week of her life to get to it.The book offers a HFN ending and I am looking forward to continuing the stories of all the characters that Liza has brought to life for this series.While I loved the entertainment and laughs, I felt like there weren't any moments of pause to let the reader catch their breath and get a deeper look at the characters. Sometimes it felt like I was stuck on a rocket-powered merry-go-round.Oh, and I have to say that Tiny and Tall are AWESOME!
