He puts the "screw" in screwball comedy...BRYNNAt thirty-four, I’m reeling from a divorce. I don’t want to party or try to move on. I just want to stay home and post a new recipe on my blog: Brynn’s Dips and Balls.But my friends aren’t having it. Get out there again, they say. It will be fun, they say. I’m still taking a hard pass.Free designer cocktails, they say. And that’s a game-changer.Too bad my ex shows up with his new arm candy. That’s when I lose my mind. But when my besties dare me to leap on the first single man I see, they don't expect me to actually go through with it.TOMAll I need right now is some peace and quiet while my home renovation TV show is on hiatus. But when a curvy woman in a red wrap dress charges me like she’s a gymnast about to mount my high bar, all I can do is brace myself and catch her. What follows is the hottest experience of my adult life.I want a repeat, but my flying Cinderella disappears immediately afterward. She doesn’t leave a glass slipper, either—just a pair of panties with chocolate bunnies printed on them.But I will find her.

My Review:
Man Hands managed to be one of the most fun contemporary romance I've read all year. Not only does it feature a sexy main character that works as a home renovation tv personality but our heroine is a food blogger. Talk about # COUPLEGOALS.
I suffered through 2 swoons and got all teary-eyed on Chapter 36. It was so good in some parts and in others a bit too slow. I totally needed a few more swoon-worthy moments but other than that it was totally great.
Tom was fantastic. I loved that he was a manly man. And that he was in the home renovation business and ha his own tv show. Made me think about DIY or HGTV channels. And Brynn with her food blog and wanting more for herself with her passion for food. I just liked her a ton as a character. Which, with the books I've read, is pretty rare when I like a female lead in a romance novel.
I also loved that the fake engagement. That was fantastically done.
Their sexy meet-cute was too much (in a good way) and that the whole story with Brynn and Tom was bot sexy and cute.
They totally loved each other and the way they acted with each other made me fall for them.
