Review: The Finn Factor - Rachel Bailey - September 2015

What do you do if you haven't managed to get past one date over a period of just over a year ? Prior to this, Scarlett was in short- long term relationships but the past year she has gone through a major dryspell and one night along with her best friend, she decides to draw a chart and work out what is wrong with her and she comes to the conclusion - that she must be a horrible and bad kisser. Enter best friend and roommate Finn - he is the "real" reason why none of the guys last longer than one or two dates aka The Finn Factor. But , he's not ready to tell Scarlett that it's all his fault, so he decides to step in and help her kiss - this turns out to be a bad mistake as the two of them have major kissing chemistry - like fireworks passion. Over the next few chapters , we read as the two try and ignore their feelings for one another by dating others - it's as clear as day to everyone else that Finn and Scarlet should be together .The thing though is that these two are best friends and Scarlet is worried that if they try something and it turns bad that they would never speak to each other again and she doesn't want to ever lose him from her life. Can Finn prove to Scarlet that he loves her and would never let that happen and that he is willing to be her "forever guy" ?

I have to admit I really liked the character of Finn in this book as in a way it reminded me of my best guy friend as his emotions are hard to read as well and he finds it hard to get close to anyone in the romantic way and I really did feel for Finn as he lost his parents when he was 18 and became an instant dad/guardian to his two younger sisters.
