The Last Wingman by Daisy PrescottMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I received an ARC via the author in exchange for an honest review. This released today March 7, 2019. You can check out my release blitz post from earlier today for all the order links.
This is my first Daisy Prescott book, but it won't be my last. This is a complete standalone, however I want to go back and read the other 5 books in the series. You absolutely do not need to read the rest of the Wingmen books, but you will want to get to know all of the other characters. I know the rest of the series has just jumped to the top of my TBR.
I adored main characters Jonah and June. They were funny, awkward, and sweet. I really liked that this was told from Jonah's perspective. You don't see that much, books are typically told from the female lead's perspective or they alternate between the leads. Jonah is a bit of a hipster, he has tattoos, piercings, and puts off the bad boy vibe from the outside. On the inside he's a bit of an introvert, he loves books, random facts, video games, other nerdy stuff, and he is a sweetheart. June owns the local yarn shop, she is a total introvert, witty, a trivia wiz, and a bit standoffish. We come to find that June has judged Jonah by his exterior, but as she gets to know him she recognizes a kindred spirit as she finds out their exteriors may be opposite but they have more in common than she could ever realize. It takes June quite a while to get over her preconceived notions about Jonah, but when she does sparks fly.
I adored this slow burn romance. The characters were quirky, funny, and so relatable. I loved all the puns and references to pop culture especially Harry Potter. I loved that the characters were older. This is exactly the type of romance I like to read. It is set in a small town with unique characters, awesome side characters, and a setting you want to be transported to. I didn't want to book to end because I wanted to be apart of it.
