Review: "Unwrapping Her Perfect Match" by Kat Latham (London Legends #3.5)


His nickname of "Little John" is a definite misnomer because there's certainly nothing little about John Sheldon. He may not be as famous as a few other members of the London Legends, the professional rugby team he plays for, but he certainly won't let that stop him from instigating a bet with his teammate Matt "Oggie" Ogden. Whoever receives the higher winning bid gets bragging rights and a bottle of whiskey. Now, all John needs to do is convince the statuesque goddess to bid on him instead of on their skipper.

Gwen Chambers is ready to bid on her sister's boyfriend in order to make sure that he doesn't end up with someone else. But when she meets John Sheldon and he tells her that if she bids on him, she'll have him all to herself for an entire day, to do whatever she pleases with him. Gwen bids five thousand quid on him and they have a memorable time together, sensing a connection she's never had with anyone else. However, what'll happen when finds out about the bet and a couple of other secrets that John is keeping from her?

Unwrapping Her Perfect Match is a holiday novella and the fourth release in the Kat Latham-authored London Legends series. Fans of the sports romance series will be familiar with John "Little John" Sheldon while Gwen Chambers was introduced in the second novel, Keeping It Close, as Tess Chambers's sister. With this being a novella, it is a shorter and quicker read, so things are paced faster than usual, which can sometimes lead to insta-love, something that was avoided here, though feelings do develop soon after.

Meeting that special someone at an auction isn't anything new in the romance genre but what happens after the auction is what makes Gwen and John's story unique. They say timing is everything and it seems as if everything that John could ever want comes at the same time...except there's a complication that often means something's got to give. Unwrapping Her Perfect Match is a story about possibilities and that it's just a matter of taking that necessary step to pursuing them. I'm giving this novella four stars. ♥
