Great series, really enjoying 2 of my favourites writing together.

Speed Dating (Preston's Mill book 2) by Noelle Adams and Samantha ChaseAnother great book by two great authors. I don't know how they do it but they are a great team. I love both of their styles of writing. They are great authors.In Speed Dating we are introduced to Isabelle Jace. They are best friends. Isabelle want's the "perfect man" and Jase has been in love with Isabelle since he first met her years ago. The more Isabelle goes out on dates the more she compares the dates to Jace. Jace is stuck in the "best friend zone".I really enjoyed reading this story. This story was a very sweet romance about two friends coming together. I love the best friends falling in love stories. This was a perfectly written romance. I felt that it was a realistically written romance. What better romance than that of two best friends. I found myself reading this book entirely. I could not put it down it was that good. I really loved the dynamics of this story. I thought the book was written perfectly and was wishing that it didn't have to end.Does Jace ever tell Isabelle how he feels? Does Isabelle ever realize that her "perfect man" is and always has been right in front of her? Read this story to find out.I give this story 5 stars. I highly recommend this story. Samantha Chase and Noelle Adams are amazing authors and you won't be disappointed.

Authors Samantha Chase and Noelle Adams come together again to bring us Speed Dating which is the second book of the Preston Mill series. Samantha and Noelle work so well together in bringing us great stories every time that it proves the saying "Two Heads are Better than One".Isabella owns a hair salon in the small town Preston and as she confides in her clients that she would love to find her dream guy,get married,and start a family they take it upon themselves to set up a profile on an online dating site for her. Isabella is excited about the idea and can't wait to share the news with her best friend Jace.Jace fell in love with Isabella the first time he met her years before when she was dating his friend. Isabella and Jace became best friends and Jace kept his real feelings for her a secret for all these years out of fear of losing her completely if he told her the truth.When Isabella tells Jace about the dating site he try's to be a supportive best friend but the thought of her dating other men is tearing him up inside. Isabella goes on a dating spree and after each date she goes right to Jace to tell him how bad the date was. As Isabella uses Jace as a shoulder to cry on her feelings begin to grow for Jace.As feelings are revealed and lies are discovered will Jace and Isabella be able to have a future together ? Will Isabella finely see that her dream guy has been there all along ?There are some typos in the book as other reviewers have stated but I think the book as a whole is worth overlooking those small errors. It's a cute and quick book that anyone would enjoy. But don't just take my word for it.....read it for yourself !

I LOVE “small town” and “best friend” romance, and when two of my favorite authors, Samantha Chase and Noelle Adams get together and write about characters in Preston's Mill? Well, WOW! JUST WOW!!!Jace and Isabella (Bella) have been best friends since high school. But, what Bella does not know, Jace has loved Bella from the very beginning, and will take ANYthing Bella will give him, and if it is just friendship, he will accept that. He does not want to lose her. But, lose her he will if he does not step up and say something.Bella has watched her three sisters either marry or get engaged, and she is a little envious of this. She wants that for herself, as well, desperately. She joins an internet dating site. After each date she goes on, Bella ends up as Jace’s house to tell him about her dates to complain about how boring, or gropey the guy was and in her mind, she starts to compare them to Jace. She starts to see that Jace is actually what she has been looking for all along. Can she take the chance of losing her best friend if she takes that step? Then after the night of the Speed Dating, that ki….. stop! No spoilers from me.I loved the way Jace and Bella FINALLY see each other, or rather Bella sees what was right in front of her all along.My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE part: The proposal!!!Thank you, Ms. Adams, and Ms. Chase for ALL the hours of reading enjoyment you give to your readers. Kudos Ladies, you definitely have another winner with Speed Dating in my opinion! 😊Thank you for reading my review.

I ended up writing this review because I was disappointed in this particular part of the series. I felt that the main female character was unreasonable and frankly a bit of a brat. That is not pleasant reading and usually these authors do quite well so I was surprised at how I had to struggle through the story. I was pretty sure of a happy ending but I am not at all sure she deserved it! I enjoyed the first book in the series and look forward to the next one as this seemed to be a bit of a departure. Sometimes it happens I guess...

A super sweet friends to lovers tale. Jace was adorable. I haven't read the other in the series. Might purchase.My only hang up was some weird editing. There would be the start of a phrase and it would stop and repeat. Also, there were quite a few erroneous words (like using "herself" instead of "himself," or homophones not corrected, or just cut off words). It really interrupted the flow. And this was a purchased copy, not an ARC.
