SIDE EFFECTS
Author: Lisa Suzanne
Genre: Contemporary Romance
SYNOPSIS:
She has been hurt. She has a past of lies, cheating, and pain. She has severe panic attacks when she’s in enclosed spaces, a side effect of a horrible accident caused by a man she thought she loved. Quinn Carpenter has a distinct type: bad boys with dark hair, dark eyes, and tattoos. Tyler, her friend with benefits, fits the bill perfectly. They have fun together and they both know that fun is where their relationship begins and ends.
Quinn’s life is exactly how she wants it until she meets Reed Porter, the typical pretty boy with blue eyes, blonde hair, and zero tattoos. He is the exact opposite of everything Quinn likes.
So why can’t she get the frustrating, preppy, blue-eyed Reed out of her head?
She isn’t interested in commitment. She doesn’t want a relationship. But Reed challenges her, he puts her in her place, and he makes her nervous. The confident Quinn is never nervous around men, so what is it about Reed that has her questioning everything? And what will be the side effects of attempting to juggle two men at the same time?

Ratings 5 stars
We first meet Quinn when she is getting into a elevator full of people, to go to the dentist. She has claustrophobia. She wants to find her forever since her friend Veronica gets married and had a baby. She goes to Strickers because that is where Ty works. Ty and Quinn are friends with benefits because Quinn has been hurt before in previous relationships. While at Strickers she meets Reed, who she calls preppy because he always wears khaki pants and a polo shirt. Reed isn't Quinn's type, she goes for bad boys. Quinn goes home for a family day and he is there with her brother Grant. While with her parents they played a game of cornhole. She was on Reed's team. She can't get Reed out of her head. This book is a standalone, this book falls into the romance category.
Quinn has claustrophobia, she walked in on her ex having sex with another woman. She is a high school teacher to freshmen and Seniors. Veronica is a teacher, friends with Quinn and Avery, has a baby girl. Jesse is Veronica's husband, Quinn's friend, works with Quinn. Avery is Quinn's and Veronica's friend. Goes out with Quinn all the time because they are both single, works with Quinn and Veronica. Tyler is a singer and a bartender, is nicknamed talented twisted Tyler. Quinn's friends with benefits. Reed works with Grant, Grant's roommate, has feelings for Quinn, used to play baseball. Grant used to play baseball, Quinn's brother and he is a man whore. I can relate to Quinn and Reed the most. All the characters are very likable.
I truly loved this book, I loved the story line of this book and that you could see how the characters grew and developed throughout the whole story. I really loved the authors style of writing. This is my first book by Lisa Suzanne and it definitely will not be my last. I truly loved that I couldn't put this book down and that I was so engrossed in this book.
