I have a hard time finding rom-coms that actually make me laugh, but If All Else Sails by Emma St. Clair is one of those rare finds. This is the first book I've read by this author and I could not stop laughing. I'm thrilled to be sharing this novel with you today!
Plot Summary
Wyatt may be a hot, famous hockey player, but in Josie's mind he's a jerk jock who takes pleasure in insulting her. So when her brother, who's also Wyatt's agent, incentivizes her to help Wyatt after an injury, she begrudgingly agrees to be his nurse for a month. After all, she can survive his comments for a month, right?
Wyatt's had a crush on Josie ever since he met her, but his foot-in-mouth disease has made it hard to get close to her. As part of her nursing duties, she accompanies him on a sailing trip that's significant to him and he sees this as his chance to win her heart. As they sail along the coastline to Georgia, can they untangle all the feelings and attraction that's simmering below the surface?

Personal Thoughts
I enjoyed this book so much! Not only were the characters hysterical and their banter entertaining, the writing style itself is witty with sass. While Wyatt came off as reticent and grouchy with no communication abilities, he was a softie underneath and I loved how this was unearthed throughout the story. Josie was just pure fun! Her snarky comments were the best and her spunk made the story shine. The strong chemistry between the two made me keep reading. Overall, I loved the story and still open it up so I can read a few scenes.
