Penny Reid
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.Elizabeth 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. 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.Friends Without Benefits is book #2 in the Knitting in the City series. 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.

"3.5 stars - Nico was a sweetheart and Elizabeth was a bit of an a-hole."

"Elizabeth's sarcastic humor and outburst makes her one of the most relatable characters I have ever read! She was so on brand with my inner thoughts I had no problem slipping right into this romance and laughing my way to love. Penny Reids always writes amazing and corky female leads that I love. BUT Elizabeth could easily be my bestie soulmate! We are one and the same❤ I need every detail of her and Nico's life forever! "

"This, like the first book, had a repetitive dialog to the writing.... constant character repeating statements, and even one entire chapter repeated. This book did have more adult content in it, but not an absurd amount, it was very well balanced."

"I actually really like her Winston Brothers series more than her Knitting in the City. There are parts of the Winston Brothers books where I actually laughed out loud, and I think the characters are more developed/interesting (at least to me) than those in the Knotting on the City series. She does overlap characters from Knitting in the City series to the Winston Brothers."

"A quick read, sort of ruined by me reading Neanderthal Marries Human (1.5) before reading this book. It was hard for me to get into this one, but once I did, I was caught."
