Just My Type by Falon Ballard

“I think I finally understand what Billy Crystal meant at the end of When Harry Met Sally. Because I know who I want to spend the rest of my life with, and I want the rest of my life to start right now.” 

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 

If you enjoyed LEASE ON LOVE, you’ll be sure to find some fun and joy with JUST MY TYPE. I loved the messy-ness of Lana and her feelings toward Seth. While the ups and downs and will they won’t they of the story makes you want to reach through the book and shove Lana and Seth into each others arms, Ballard gets them there eventually in a slow burn that is as teasing as it is beautifully crafted with a happy ending. 

Lana Parker thought she was getting engaged when her boyfriend of four years dumps her. It’s another relationship failed, and to make matters worse, her high school sweetheart shows up in LA and is now gunning for the writing job of her dreams. Seth and Lana are tasked with competing for their own column with The Los Angeles Chronicle. Lana has to complete tasks so she can be comfortably single, while Seth has his own list to get him relationship ready. In completing the tasks, Lana is forced to grapple with the past, her heartbreak, and whether or not the man she’s loved since she was fourteen will be in her future. 

I would have loved to read Seth’s POV. Readers see glimpses of it, but full chapters of how he feels about Lana and their competition would’ve been great. Readers can see his pining for her from Lana’s POV, but I want to read in this man’s own POV how bad he has it for her.
