The Teddy Bear Agreement

Author: @thepurplerose
Genre: Romance, Teen Fiction
Incomplete
Synopsis:
I was just about to push myself away and sneak out of the room when his arms tightened just a fraction more around my waist.

"Wait, not yet, I'm awake." Will's breath tickled my ear as he brought me closer and even threw one of his legs over mine. He backed us both away from the edge of the bed and I was pretty sure he was hitting the wall with his back.

"You'll make it harder for me to sneak out without waking you up." I whispered, my slight annoyance edging in my voice. The quick exhale of breath coming from his nose was a probable chuckle as he murmured back to me:

"That's the point."

Review:

The Teddy Bear Agreement.

The Teddy Bear Agreement.

Oh, The Teddy Bear Agreement. ( I made a shortcut on my iPod for that.)

Can I just say this story is fucking amazing? It's fucking amazing. I've fallen in love with you, you perfect book.

I gotta explain something before the characters. This plot. Because the synopsis makes it seem like something else...

It's cliché at parts but the base of the story is The Teddy Bear Agreement. This agreement and a couple others is the relationship between the two mains, Cassandra and William ( Cassie and Will respectively). The Teddy Bear Agreement is listed in the blurb of the story and it states that they are acting as each other's Teddy bear for the night. ( Not like that. Goodness).

The first few chapters are quite boring and slow and you might feel it's going a bit fast in places ( but really you'll want them to rush ) but rest assured it gets better when they make/start the agreement.

As far as plots go it's quite original for the most part, like no bad boy cliché ( Thank Jesus ) but other parts are cliché and you'll have to accept that.

The book is from Cassie's POV and she and Will are the protagonists. Cassie's just a bit dense. Real dense. And she just doesn't get it and you're practically throttling her through the screen to get it and she doesn't. She's smart, (She started College a semester early) she doesn't have many friends so there are only about five other characters, and she doesn't like to read which seems to contradict the first part of this statement but she doesn't.

Will is a nice guy. (BTW Will in Chapters 14/15 = me ) He's a health nut and goes jogging every morning, he loves to read fiction, he voluntarily cooks, he knows how to take care of women during that time of month, like why don't you exist in real life? Why are there no men like you for the rest of us?

Oren is quite an important side character. Maria is introduced midway and seems like a replacement for April, who's mentioned a lot and seems important but we don't actually see her. Michelle is just there and Dani seems real nice but we just met him like two chapters ago, so I can't judge him yet...

The synopsis is an extract from... A chapter later on in the book ( I can't find it) but it's there in the chapters she's updated so far. There are only six more to go before the book is completed, so you'll be able to read it in one stretch instead of week by week like me.

This is just one of those rare books that you just instantly fall in love with. I'm pretty sure it's Chicklit too, but the author only tagged Romance so meh.

Well that's that. It's really good and I suggest you read it right away before she changes the cover again.

The new plot twist was so unexpected but I still want to

Happy Reading,

Okay. Sorry for not updating I had exams and then I fell sick during the week of the God that is Zayn Malik's birthday and I felt cursed for not updating. Then on Saturday I stayed over at my aunts house for the night and she doesn't have internet and I went on a spontaneous road trip to the coast yesterday like ugh. I'll update again on Saturday, just need to get into a schedule again. 😄
