An unsolicited dick pic is one thing. Setting up a guy you are flirting with so he sends one to an unsuspecting woman is just cruel. But, this is exactly what happens to Josh and it's Peyton's first meeting with him. Imagine their horror when they realize they are about to become business partners? I mean, The best thing about the internet is that no o bre even knows who you are...except when they do. I loved the play on words of the title, the humor and heat of the book and the general sense of fun throughout this book. Yes, they work for that happy ending (not a euphemism) but the journey is enjoyable overall. I liked the characters and that they didn't take themselves too seriously, that they allowed the absurdity of their first meeting to be funny and not a reason to avoid one another. I enjoyed and recommend this title.

Junk Mail has a charming and easily likeable guy at the center of the "junk." The heroine -just lukewarm on the likeability scale but her Gram is fun! Overall, the story wasn't sizzling, as expected - lots of mixed messages, not steamy ones. It was light on actual substance and kind of light on steaminess, in comparison to some of the author's other works. I was perplexed by the depth of feelings expressed when Josh sets about correcting a major faux pas. And the misstep made (with the help of his business partner) was so contrived, even an awkward teenager would've known better. I gave fate a chance & overlooked the unlikely premise that somehow in NYC, the two would cross paths & know it. There were too many other issues for me. Her product - not revolutionary, him & his partner's obtusiveness - not believable, their deep feelings - not evidenced. With the last few reads, the love stories seem rushed. I hope the author adds more layers to foster authenticity in upcoming projects.

A feel-good, forbidden romance filled with laughs, charm, and an overabundance of steam! Kendall Ryan gives readers another exemplary story with it’s originality and fresh and hilarious outlook on sexting gone wrong….or very, very right in this book. *wink* Josh and Peyton were adorable! Their insta-chemistry was perfect for the story line, given how complicated it makes their professional partnership. Their flirty interactions and sizzling attraction provide the plot its intrigue and fascination, allowing the reader to feel engaged with the forbidden quality and outcome of their relationship. But as fun and light-hearted as the overall tone of the story is, misunderstandings and miscommunication reveal that even the most effortless romances aren’t without its own complications. Junk Mail is sexy! It’s lively and comedic dialogue pairs perfectly with the witty and entertaining story line that makes this book a for-sure must read!
