Book Review: The Plus One Pact by Portia Macintosh

Updated: May 27, 2020

Disclaimer: I received a free copy of this book from Boldwood Books (via NetGalley) in exchange for an honest review.


Edition: ARC on Kindle

Genre: Romance/Women's Fiction


Synopsis: What if your plus one could be the one...? Cara has officially run out of men. Her most recent dates have gone from bad to worse, and when her dating app informs her there is no one left in her area to choose from, she is at a dead end. But with a summer of events ahead of her, she needs to find a solution, fast; someone to keep her company at the never-ending weddings, family gatherings and gender reveal parties that she can’t face going to alone. So when she meets handsome, confident, Millsy on a night out she may be in luck. They could not be more different in personality, but he too has a summer of events ahead and is desperate to get his family off his back about finding a ‘nice girl’. What if they made a pact to help each other out and be a plus one for the summer? Just as friends of course...? 


Shannon's Review: 3/5 stars

"The Plus One Pact" is a traditional, super cute, and easy to read romance. Cara finds herself in a dating rut, until she mets Millsy during a night out. They decide to be each other's plus ones for a summer full of events, but just as friends. This story felt like a slower burn than others I typically read, so for me this made it a littler hard to get invested in at first; however, the story did pick up and I enjoyed it. This book does have a lot of what I would call a lot of "inner dialogue" from the main character Cara. For me anyway this made it harder to read, I do feel like I adjusted to it as I continued reading. I really enjoyed Millsy's character, he was just really charming, funny, and down to earth. I like the friendship Cara and Millsy formed, it just seemed really genuine. Overall, a cute lighthearted romance book!
