Book Synopsis

"Complete with hot sex scenes, snarky double-entendres, slapstick humor, and quirky girlfriends, this comedic romp through modern-day dating checks all the romance boxes." —Kirkus Reviews

Willa Frank has one simple rule: never go on a date with anyone more than twice. Now that her business is providing the stability she’s always needed, she can’t afford distractions. Her two-date rule will protect her just fine…until she meets smokejumper Grady Billman.

After one date—one amazing, unforgettable date—Grady isn’t ready to call it quits, despite his own no-attachments policy, and he’s found a sneaky way around both their rules.

Throwing gutter balls with pitchers of beer? Not a real date (bowling doesn’t count).
Watching a band play at a local show? Not a real date (shared music taste is a coincidence).
Hiking? Not a real date (exercise is definitely exempt).

Willa’s admittedly having fun playing along. But with each non-date, Willa risks losing her much-needed focus. Especially when finding the balance between “all work” and “no play” feels impossible without the perfect shade of Grady.

    Willa’s upbringing was a rough one. There was never enough money for anything. The one thing she promised herself was that she would never live that life again. She’s worked hard to get her business going and profitable. So if she works seven days a week, so be it. Willa also has a rule about dating, a two-date rule, that is. She figures this way there will be no attachments, since she can’t work a relationship into her busy life. Well, that’s until she meets Grady, a smokejumper. Grady loves his life, being a smokejumper. Putting out fires is what all the men in his family have always done. During the winter months he works the west coast of the US, during the summers he goes to Australia. One thing for sure, he doesn’t have time for relationships, that is, until he meets Willa. Asking Willa out was a no brained, however, when she told him her two-date rule, he went along with it. Except that he had so much fun with her, that now he’s coming up with silly outings just so she can’t call them dates. When Willa loses out on a major deal for her business, she blames her relationship with Grady. Knowing that her business has to be the most important part of her life, Willa breaks up with him. Now she’s having second thoughts. Can she live her life without love. Really good book, truly enjoyable. I received a copy of this arc in exchange for an honest review.

    Great start to a new series. Willa Frank needs to control every aspect of her life to make up for a chaotic and tough childhood. She feels that she cannot have a relationship and do well at her job, so she has a two date rule. She has a meet-cute with Smokejumper Grady Billman at a strip club, where she mistakes him for a fireman stripper. After their first date is very successful, Grady and Willa, figure a way around her rule by getting together in non-date ways. I loved Grady, great guy, loving and caring. Willa was a little harder to warm up to. I kept thinking that she needed to get some therapy. Overall, an enjoyable read. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

    One thing I love about Tawna’s books is how she makes the characters so relatable. Both the main characters in Two-Date Rule have issues that hold them back and yet they both learn to work through them in order to be together and just be stronger people, in general. As usual with Tawna’s books I was laughing out loud multiple times and couldn’t help but love the characters. There were times when I wanted to smack Willa upside the head but then again I would do that to my best friend in this same situation, so once again, very relatable! Tawna is so good with the playful banter and witty remarks for her characters, yet she makes sure each character is still unique. I can’t ever put Tawna’s books down and was glad I got the opportunity to give my review, thanks to the publisher’s advanced reader copy.

    This was a great start to a new series. I really loved Grady and Willa. And their meet cute was perfect- perfectly hilarious and embarrassing for Willa. Both Grady and Willa did not want a serious relationship- home because of his job and her because of her childhood. They were complete opposites but were perfect for each other, they each needed what the other brought to the relationship. Willa had two great friends in, Kayla and Aislin, and they made her have a life outside of work. I also enjoyed Grady’s family and his fellow smokejumpers, mainly Tony. I was so happy that Willa was able to get answers regarding her childhood and that it helped her realize how good Grady was for her. And that Grady was able to start to look forward to a future with someone when he never did before. I really enjoyed this book and look forward to more in this series.

  • Great start to the series!

    This book starts with a hilarious case of mistaken identity. I loved the first interaction between Willa and Grady. Willa and Grady's story is a lot of hilarious but with their backgrounds, also a lot of angst. No-strings should have been easy for two people who avoid commitment like it's s some kind of disease but of course that's not the way their story goes. This is an awesome start to this new series and I can't wait for the next one!!
