4 FORKING SWEET StarsReviews for The Do Over had been popping up all over my feed for the last few weeks so yesterday I decided to see what it was all about.I have to say, I really enjoy it. It was a funny, sweet and sexy. It is a story about an unexpected love connection.Lanie and Kyle are two very different people. Lanie is a successful lawyer and a bit socially inept. But that doesn’t stop her from putting a crazy plan of hers into action. See Lani has strong feelings for a coworker Brad, who happens to be dating her sister and is Kyle’s best friend. She thinks if she spends time with Kyle and gets inside information about Brad she will be better prepared to pick up the pieces when his relationship with her sister Cassie ends. I should mention, Cassie is a real bitch. If I could have jumped into the book I would have smacked her upside of her head.Kyle is a successful writer be he is also a player who jumps from one beautiful women to the other. He doesn't do relationships and his ego is quite inflated. When Lanie propositions him with her plan, his immediate response is to tell her she is crazy and there was no way in hell he would help her. But Lanie sweetens the deal with something he can't resist. Let the fun begin!Both Kyle and Lanie were funny. They made me laugh and roll my eyes (in a good way). I really don't want to say too much but I will say a lot of things happen between Lanie and Kyle. From a sexy scene involving a popsicle (yup…let your imagination go), to comfy nights watching the Bears and eating ice cream to a weekend trip to a cabin, you will just love these two.It is a fun ride but it wasn’t all smooth sailing for Lanie and Kyle. Feelings begin to change and lines are crossed. Both Lani and Kyle are not completely sure how to handle things. They both have secrets, each of them harboring some issues involving their families which only makes things more difficult. My heartstrings were tugged and Kyle...well he kind of let me down a bit. I wasn't sure how things were going to end up.Overall I enjoyed The Do-Over. It might have been a tiny bit predictable, and a few situations may leave you thinking….really? But add in the other characters like Lanie's sister Cassie and Brad, Kyle’s sister Rachael and work situations and you get a great balance of things. Definitely pick this book up and give it a try! I am definitely looking forward to reading more books by MK Schiller.
