Theirs is so unique, and interesting, and sexy. This was not the case with Elizabeth and Nico. Usually when I know that a couple is going to end up together, I'm not as interested in their story. (For example, I remembered reading in BatM that Nico was famous, and that he crochets.) I started by reading Truth or Beard, then listened to Beauty and the Mustache (4), Neanderthal Seeks Human (1) and Neanderthal Marries Human (1.5) before reading Friends Without Benefits, so I already knew a little about Elizabeth and Nico.
I love Penny Reid's books, but I made the mistake of reading them out of order.
Each book is a standalone, full length (110k words), contemporary romantic comedy novel, and follows the misadventures and exploits of seven friends in Chicago, all members of the same knitting group. But when Elizabeth’s plans for benefits without friendship are disarmed by the irritatingly charismatic and chauvinistic Nico Manganiello-her former nemesis-she finds herself struggling to maintain the electric fence around her heart while avoiding a Nico charisma-electrocution or, worse, falling in love.įriends Without Benefits is book #2 in the Knitting in the City series. There are three things you need to know about Elizabeth Finney: 1) She suffers from severe sarcastic syndrome, especially when she's unnerved, 2) No one unnerves her like Nico Manganiello, and 3) She knows how to knit.Įlizabeth Finney is almost always right about everything: the musical merits of boy bands are undervalued by society, “benefits” with human Ken dolls are better without friendship, and the sun has set on her once-in-a-lifetime chance for true love.
