Loved this book!!
This was my first Elizabeth Hayley read and I absolutely adore them and their writing style! I'm very picky when it comes to third person writing but they nailed this! I will be reading more from them for sure. Misadventures with My Roommate was a fun and steamy read. I would definitely recommend reading the book if you want a quick spicy read.I absolutely adore Blake and Gavin! Blake is like my spirit animal in the way that she has zero filter and I absolutely loved every minute of it with this character. She tells everything how it is and I for one am a person who can always appreciate that in any character. I loved the humor that was created in this book, especially Blake's humor because it was so quirky at times that it had me chuckling uncontrollably.Gavin is definitely the level headed of the two and helps to level out Blake a bit, where as Blake definitely helps to bring out Gavin's fun side. Gavin finds himself opening up about his dreams of profession and Blake opens up about her darker past. Together these two help one another conquer fears or pursue dreams.I absolutely loved this roommates to lovers romance! It's another Misadventures 5 star for me!

A fun and witty couple
Blake is one of a kind and Gavin seems to complete her lunacy. This book made me laugh with all the lines that come out of Blake’s mouth. Thanks Elizabeth Hayley for bringing these fun, unconventional characters to life on the pages.

In Review: Misadventures with My Roommate by Elizabeth Hayley
Misadventures with My Roommate makes me wish I gave half stars. I liked this novella quite a bit, but I just can't give it four stars. There was too much story untold, too much character development that just didn't happen because it was a novella and not a full-length book. I'm sad, too, because I really was into Blake and Gavin's story. I should probably be happy with the format, but I'm just not sure it did their story justice.Blake was a bit of a tough nut to crack. It seemed almost like there was more under the surface than what was ever uncovered. I had a tough time deciding if she was totally sarcastic or if she really believed some of the things she said. She was a quirky character with zero filter and while that was refreshing at times, other times I felt like I was struggling to "get" her. Gavin was sweet and sexy and the perfect pairing for Blake. I thought his personality balanced hers nicely. Sparks flew between these two characters any time they were together and it was only a matter of time before they gave in. This novella did get a little heavier at one point, but I liked the added depth. I just wish there had been more time to explore it all.Overall Misadventures with My Roommate was a good read. I enjoy Elizabeth Hayley's writing style and am intrigued by their characters. I just wish there had been more story! Oh, it's worth adding I listened to the audiobook for this one and I loved the narrators. Sarah McEwan and Jacob Morgan did a fantastic job reading this one.

Loved Blake's take on life
Another great story for this series. It was so entertaining and hot between Blake and Gavin that you just don't know what to expect next. Blake Monroe has had a tough life growing up and is a little different from most people that she takes some getting use to. Blake's humor and lack of filter on things are just so funny and you never know what she will say!Blake meets Gavin Gibson at the coffee house that they both work. She immediately lets him know she's interested in him and Gavin finds her honesty and humor entertaining. When Blake finds out that Gavin needs to look for another place to live, she offers him a place in her apartment since her roommate abruptly moves out (she couldn't put up with Blake's quirkiness anymore). Gavin and Blake sharing an apartment together is entertaining to see because Blake isn't shy about being interested in Gavin for sex! She finally gets his attention when she straight out tells him what she wants. Blake is not shy about what she wants and she just wants a physical relationship with Gavin since she knows that eventually everyone gets tired of her and her outlook on life. Things between Blake and Gavin are great but then they started getting personal and telling each other about their past that they've never told any one else. Blake starts to freak out and Gavin knows he's falling for Blake but doesn't want to lose her. Each of them needs to work through their issues and figure out what they want from each other.Blake's openness is so entertaining to read about and makes the story so funny and romantic. Gavin's acceptance of Blake for who she is is refreshing since most people probably couldn't handle someone like Blake for a long period of time. They are each accepting of the other and that's a great for a lasting relationship!

Sweet, quirky, fun and sexy
I received an ARC from NetGalley for an honest review and I loved the book so much I bought it. This is my first book by Elizabeth Hayley and it won’t be my last. Misadventures with My Roommate was a fun and sexy read. I found myself laughing out loud to all the quirky, emotional, and clever interaction between the characters. I found Blake quirky, outspoken, while Gavin was sweet, charming, and sexy I recommend this book to everyone!

Fun and Exciting Romantic adventure!
Laugh out Loud quirky, quick whited, emotionally thrilling, action packed romantic adventure filled with passion, understanding and heartwarming good times.Blake Monroe is so not your average everyday anything.... she is quirky, outspoken, truthful to a fault and so unsure how to keep a relationship going. (or so she thinks) Gavin Gibson is sweet, charming, sexy and has an artistic soul that is not accepted by his family. He is also just the right kinda guy to slip under Blake's defenses and truly accept her as she is. (even adore her for her differences) They are so adorable and fun together and I also enjoyed their friends. Highly entertaining reading.

Not For Me
I know Blake is meant to be quirky and funny but I thought her irritating. She had the obligatory miserable childhood which explained her attitudes but I could only think how much I would have hated to have lived with her.I found Gavin potentially more interesting but his character was sketchily drawn. He was just the love interest with a parent problem thrown in .

Misadventures with My Roommate.5+*
Another fantastic book from the Misadventures series! Blake & Gavin's story is brilliant, I wasn't sure I was going to like it at the beginning as much as the others but I read on and was not disappointed...loved it! And so, another fabulous author to add to my list of new author's. Definitely recommend reading this book.

Good
It was a good read, but it just feels really unfinished, I think it could be been a bit longer and the story could have been continued i wasn't happy with the ending but great banter between the characters

Sexy & funny
This book was a very enjoyable read. Funny and emotional at times, with just enough character building to engage you and make you feel. Some steamy sex scenes, which are always good and why we read these types of books. Thumbs up
