It’s not just that Roman is the kind of man every woman would kill to have and that every man should strive to be.

It’s not just that the characters are bomb, are always professional and always have just the right amount of swag. I just want to give a little insight into WHY I enjoy her books so much. I know I’m supposed to be reviewing the book and I am instead gushing about how awesome of an author Christina is…but to be honest, there’s only so many times I can rave about her books being good. Yet time and time again, Christina does it and in a way that makes it seem effortless. But to write a story that is realistic, that has the ability to stress you out because it is so easy to relate or put yourself in the characters shoes, but STILL make it fun and entertaining to read, that’s not easy to do. To get away from reality and this baffling thing we call life. I think it's a testament to how great of an author Christina is because I feel like the majority of us read books to escape. Realistic enough that many people reading this story might have been or ARE in the very same position as them. It’s a book that will having you stopping and thinking about what you would do if you were in some of the situations the characters end up in because the story is authentic enough that you COULD ask yourself these questions.
A Crazy Thing Called Love is a realistic and believable book. Too many times, you read romance novels (new adult or just contemporary) and the stories seem so far fetched or out of reach that you can’t really LOSE yourself in the story. I love that Christina’s books always feel real. "A Crazy Little Thing Called Love" follows Roman and Simone on their journey as they try and figure out what they mean to one another and if their feelings for each other can trump the baggage they just can't seem to shake. But trust me…this book wouldn’t be receiving the rating it has if that were the case because that's BORING/ The stars have aligned for Simone and Roman to have a whirlwind romance filled with passion and happiness but everyone has baggage. With a set-up like that, you would expect this book to be all rainbows and sunshine, chocolate chips and candy canes, Ben and Jerrys…you get where I’m going with this. (That was cheesy, I know, but ask me if I care!) Thanks to Romans friend being a major jackass and forgetting his wifes birthday, Roman and Simone cross paths and are thrown on a journey toward this Crazy Little Thing Called Love. Right across the street is Romans Coffee Shop “Urban Grind” which is the typical place for coffee connoisseurs by day and a nice hang out spot by night. Simone owns her own flower shop “Posh Petals” that she started on her own, runs on her own and has developed, grown and garnered success from, on her own.

She just knows how to write good stories with awesome characters in relationships that make you envious if you aren’t in a relationship of your own and jealous if you are because I can PROMISE you, it’s nothing like what the characters’ relationship is like.įollowing the trend of Black Excellence that Christina loves to follow and that I have NO problem reading EVERY. I’m starting to think 'cute' is Christina C Jones’ superpowers. Simone and Roman were cute, this story was cute, their relationship was cute. I always say that to characters when they’re being annoyingly adorable in the books that I’m reading because I’m crazy and talk to fictional characters…I need help! Lol.
