A four-star read to take a punt on. I honestly didn’t know what to think about when I picked this one up, as the blurb was what hooked me it just intrigued me to a point that I had to know more. I don’t know what it was about this one that made me chuckle, there was just something about it. The writing style will take a little to get used to, but I promise once you do then you will enjoy it the directness of Frank is shocking but fun. Some of the characters you will adore like Mikey you will love but some not so much, but I will leave it to you to decide.

Man this book was perfect. Frank was a typical guy to me with a very nonchalant personality. But inside he was a big softie. I really enjoyed the authors sense of humor. Mikey and Frank were so perfect for each other. They have what I use to have with my ex. Their relationship was fun and easy. Don’t get me wrong there were moments that it was rocky. But they made it work and that is all that matters. Mikey had a unique personality. Most women are not so blunt and open as she is. She was so comfortable and confident with who she is that she wasn’t too afraid to let Frank in. Frank on the other hand was level 10 clingy which surprised me because it didn’t fit his personality that he portrayed. Overall I couldn’t get enough of this couple. They were funny and loving but they also learned and grew with each other. I will definitely be reading more from this author if she infuses the same lightness and joy in all her books.

F*cking Frank was a great 5 star read and book one in the Smirk Series.
I was pulled in right away and was LOL so many times. I absolutely love Frank and his (no pun intended) frankness. He tells it like it is and has no filters.
People suck, or most people do. But the most important lesson was to choose your friends carefully and do not trust easily. – Frank
When Frank and the band go to the winery for their summer gig, they meet Mikey. And oh my gosh if she isn’t made for Frank no one is, these two were like twins on everything. Mikey is like a female Frank to a tee and when she sees something she wants she’s not shy about it. These two are sassy, strong, straight forward and so much more. I loved them.
Can they keep things professional or will they give into their attraction? Has Frank finally found THE ONE?
There is so much more to this great read. All of the secondary characters were great, I look forward to reading more from this series. This read was so refreshing and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have a friend very similar to Frank so it felt like I was reading his story. Jen has once again given me another great story to read, I’m excited to read the rest of the series.

F*cking Frank is Book 1 in the Smirk Series from author Jen Luerssen. This was my first read from this author and boy, oh boy was it a brilliant introduction in this author’s writing style and series. From the moment you open this book or even when you read this book’s synopsis you are physically laughing out loud, from start until the very end! This was a light-hearted comedy romance that keeps you captivated until the end. It was a smooth flowing easy read, that was a pleasure to read!
I loved the similarities in each character from the clothes, to the tattoos, and attitudes yet both of them are there own individual person. The connection that our main characters Frank & Mikey had was off the charts, and it was made even better by their interactions together and banter they would have. Throughout the book I was rooting for them, they had something special that I hoped they could pursue.
Another thing that stands out in this read is the secondary characters, all of them stand out in their own way, and the interactions they have with Frank really help push the story along. But now for the part that stands out most to me, I love reading books that are from POVs, but I have never read one from a males POV for the entire read. It has got to be the best way to tell this story, if it was told any other way I don’t think it would be as great as what it was. It felt as though I was having a conversation with Frank, it was as though it was directed at me, and it made this read even better!
If you are looking for a read that makes you laugh, has romance and has a hot guy and an amazing female then this is the book for you, do not miss it!

F*cking Frank by Jen Luerssen is the first book in the Smirk series. This book will have you laughing all the way through. Even the blurb had me chuckling to myself so I knew I would enjoy the book. I loved the fact that it was told from Frank’s POV. I have only ever read one other book like that in the romantic comedy genre and it is sub a refreshing take. I think that is why I also found it so funny – I can just imagine so many guys thinking the way Frank does. This was a fantastic book and one I can highly recommend.

F*cking Frank is the first book in Jen Luerssen’s Smirk Series. The book is a steamy hot romance, that I only recommend to those over the age of 18, because it sure is erotic. The story is about Frank, a down right prick at the best of times, and a man that could give the Grinch a run for his money. All the man wants to do is make sweet music and surf the perfect wave. Until her meets his doppelgänger in female form, Mikey. She is his identical twin from another bin. The similarities at first turn them on in a narcissistic kind of way, before they begin to get uncanny and slightly unsettling. I found the story overall to be very engaging and entertaining. It was well written and the two main characters were believable, they just weren’t my cup of tea. I think it was because they were so believable that I couldn’t relate to them or feel empathetic of their situation. They became real people in my head, that I knew I would never associate with, because of how they treat their friends and interact with other people. I still thought the story was very entertaining and an enjoyable read, but for once I could not sympathize with a main character; purely based on my own personal preferences. I still recommend the book to friends who enjoy characters like Frank, that have very dry humor and break the fourth wall. Overall I gave F*cking Frank 3/5 stars.

F*cking Frank by Jen Luerssen is book 1 In the Smirk Series. I have never read any of this authors work but cannot wait to read the next book. I want to see how Joe is going to fall in love just like Frank has. Frank is a grumpy guy that doesn’t really like people and hates small talk. Frank plays bass in a band called Lia and The Licks. Franks friend Sebastian offers the group a summer job playing at the winery so once they all agree, they head up there and even have a place to stay. When Frank meets Mikey, it’s insane how much they have in common. They are pretty much inseparable from the day they meet. What will happen when the summer is over and real life choices get in the way.
This was a great book from beginning to end. I loved the loyalty between friends and the chemistry between Mikey and Frank was off the charts.

I really like finding new authors. This was such a refreshing read for me. I like to read various genres and I really liked how the author winds the story around the characters. It’s quite nice to have a unique character base.
I really like how the author made the character realistic as sometimes in books they just are too fake. Frank is so realatable. There is so much to be said for asterisk. The author really had me hooked on this book and I was glad to have a break from my normal steamy romances. This book really was a breath of fresh air for me. It wasn’t superficial it was a really great down to earth read and I will be reading it over and over.

OMG! This book was a riot! From the moment I read the blurb and laughed out loud to the very last page this was hilarious and a great escape. I have not had the the pleasure of reading anything from Jen Luerssen before picking up F*cking Frank but I have to tell you I will be stalking, er I mean following faithfully lol, her from now on! I hate to seem a bit too repetitive but if you happen to not read the little blurbs before you read the reviews or not at all I just have to include it in the review. This was what sold me on this book, and I loved it! ************************************************************************************************************* I’m F*cking Frank (yeah there’s an asterisk, worked for that kids book, didn’t it?) and this book is about me and Mikey. You’d probably rather be in Mikey’s head since she’s not as much of an asshole, but unfortunately, the author finds me more interesting. Mikey and I were literally separated at birth, and when we get back together, it’s pretty great. She could do way better, but who am I to set her standards? I make music, she makes wine. Together we mostly argue and f*ck (jeez, even here an asterisk?), so you know, we’re perfect for each other. At least I think we are, she wants to keep it casual and like a jerk I fell in love.
She and I f*ck a lot, hopefully it’s enough for you pervs. I mean, Myself? I like a good paranormal with maybe two or three powerful demigods or shifters going at it, but you do you.
Where was I? Yeah, so buy this book if you like my abs and that vee thing Mikey swoons over. You could get the ebook version or you could buy the paperback and show my abs off like nature intended.
“Hey Carol, what are you reading?” I ask.
“Um, War and Peace,” you say and I know you are lying your face off, Carol. You like romance, own that shit!
So go ahead, buy this book, read it in three hours, and move on to the next one that will be undervalued by snobs with no joy in their life.
********************************************************************* And.. This book is just that. A direct POV novel told by Frank. He is one blunt and sarcastic man, and I loved the way he caught me off guard even when I thought that I had gotten used to him as a character. This book is also really interactive and directly refers to the you the reader often, which was a fun and new twist, one I have rarely seen in novels. I loved the steam level and the underlying lesson that came from the romance part. Overall this book was the perfect rom-com, mostly steamy comedy to spend the afternoon laughing with. I can’t wait to get my hands on the next one in the series, and other books by Hen Luerssen! Thanks for a great read and lots of laughs!

F*cking Frank is the first book in the Smirk series by Jen Luerssen. This romantic comedy had me hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until the last. I love hat this book was told in Frank’s point of view. This book had me laughing out loud, which makes it a great book for me, and tearing up at times. It also had some steamy hot love scenes. Frank and Mikey have great chemistry and the story has me rooting for them throughout the story. This is the first book I have read by Ms. Luerssen and I’m looking forward to reading many more in the future.

F*cking Frank (Smirk Series Book 1) by Jen Luerssen is a romantic comedy and it is one of the most funniest stories I have read. Jen hit the mark when she wrote this book, it is told in a male point of view and her dialogue and humour was spot on. I found myself laughing out loud and getting funny looks when I did so, but I didn’t care because I was so engrossed in the lives of these wacky characters. It was also sexy and steamy and there were some tender moments that made you go ah. The story feels so realistic as we follow these crazy friends, who are family, through their lives, with all their quirks and sexy smexy innuendos, teasing and mateship, love and flaws, hope and wonder.
I seriously look forward to reading more of these characters in this series, as one book is not enough. Good job Jen!

F*cking Frank is a hilarious and addictive tale about two people who are almost the same and is book one in the Smirk series by Jen Luerssen.
Frank meets Mikey and it is like they are cut from the same cloth.The likeness between the two is uncanny and makes for seriously unputdownable reading. It was captivating, so ridiculously funny, which had me hoping I could read extra slow, just to savour the moments with these two. I was borderline needing therapy after this, as I laughed like I was crazy and loved like I never would again. It was so entertaining that I cannot get into another book right now.
As this is my first time reading Jen Luerssen’s work, I was stunned at how immersed I became in it. It was instant. Reading F*cking Frank was an unforgettable experience and I desperately await the next book in the Smirk series. 5 stars.

Jen Luerssen’s F*cking Frank (Smirk Series Book 1) is ripping roar of a romantic comedy. From the start, the author will have you laughing until your sides are about ready to split and still continue on. Frank is a no filter kind of guy, but can anything set him off kilter? Watching how Frank moves this this story was amusing, touching and also extremely entertaining. The story includes a full cast of characters that work well together even though some of their personalities are off the chart. Jen Luerssen makes this story work in all the right ways!

F*cking Frank (Smirk Series Book 1) By Jen Luerssen 5 Stars
With a title like F*cking Frank I was expecting something good. What I got was so much more. From the uniqueness of the story being told from Frank’s POV to the interaction between him and Mikey, this book had it all. Colorful banter and steamy scenes between the two main characters only enhance the book. The flow of the story is easy and engaging. Emotions cross the gamut so be prepared for the roller coaster. And Jen Luerssen doesn’t stop there! The blurb only gives you a peek of what this book could be but trust me it is just the tip of the iceberg. And when you have sunk into like the Titanic, you will not come up for air until the end! As a first-time reader for this author I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed the writing style. I will definitely be looking for more from this author and am intrigued to see what comes next in this series!

F*cking Frank (Smirk Series Book 1) by Jen Luerssen
4 Stars
This is my first read by this author and I sincerely enjoyed it, there were many parts that made me smile and there were some that had me wondering what would happen and how these two people could make anything work.
It was a unique story and I liked how it was all in Frank’s point of view, that was different and I enjoyed that and I did kind of like the times it felt like he was talking directly to me.
The secondary characters were a lot of fun and the interaction between them all made me laugh. I think Frank’s best friend Joe was my favorite of the whole book and I hope he will get his own story.
I did enjoy the story although at times it felt predictable it was still a fun read and I would definitely recommend it.

This was my first read by This author, and I will be reading more from her. The story was easy to read but i did feel some was just drawn out that didn’t add to the story other than character interactions. I did like the characters and they were unique i their own ways and I did find this an easy but also funny read it did have some seriousness along the way. While i didn’t absolutely love this story, doesnt mean others won’t.

This was my first read by Jen Luerssen, so I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect when I began. I didn’t know if I would enjoy the story because I don’t normally enjoy over-the-top and very direct humour that the blurb alluded to. But as I was looking for something a little different from what I had been reading of late, a palate cleanse of sorts, so I took the chance and wandered in. What I found was everything I had expected it to be- a somewhat bawdy romantic comedy with a very cheeky overtone- lots of swearing, flirting, innuendos, sarcasm, and teasing…. but, surprisingly, it also had a deeper and more emotive storyline than I had expected, which balanced out the comedy- and I have to say I enjoyed the book much more than I had expected to. The story is told almost entirely from Frank’s POV, even addressing the reader directly at times- which took me a little while to get used to. All the characters are quite zany, fully developed individuals with their own quirks, flaws, and personalities. Each one contributed to the storyline, and help set the tone and mood. I particularly liked Joe and Lia. So, If you like outrageous romantic comedies with strong, quirky characters, and want to know what happens when a grumpy musician meets a smart, independent winemaker- then this is definitely the story for you!

This book is so enjoyable. I loved it! I picked this up because with that title how could it not be a wickedly good read. Turns out Frank has not much of a filter. He is brash and basically says what he thinks regardless of who it’s too. Male, female, boss or friend…he holds nothing back. He is known for being a grump and never smiling or laughing plus he has no boundaries. So when he meets his doppelgänger but as a woman. Well his life is about to change.
I love the secondary characters especially Joe. His best friend. He teases him mercilessly….and I even laughed and made the “OH” face a few times with the things he said. He also is there when he needs him and gives him good advice. Lia is another who comes up with the whackiest things to irritate her bestie, Frankenburger or Frank and Beans or any other name she can think of. As well as her Swear Words! OMG! I love it! Such a great idea to make her memorable! When all the friends get together it’s funny but when they try “roast”Frank in front of his girl….hilarious!
This is a good solid book that even had me worrying about Frank a few times. It’s actually a fun read and the time sped by fairly quickly. I enjoy how Frank is telling the story but at times also talking to the reader. The characters were all Whack-a-Doodles but that’s what made me like them. Each is quirky in their own way. This is the first in the series and I can’t help but wonder about Joe….is he next???

This is the first book I’ve read by this author and I have to say that I am so glad I found it. I knew from the blurb I was in for a great read but I was truly blown away with how much I loved this book. I couldn’t put it down until I reached the end so I read it in one sitting. It has everything I look for in my favorite romance stories. It’s a bit different with us getting the story from Frank’s point of view, which is a nice change. I laughed out loud more than once and was making sure my fan was close by often. The characters are complex and believable, you can’t help but connect with them. It’s well written and a must read! Can’t wait to see where the author takes readers next! Giving this story a five star review and highly recommend it.

Book 1 in the Smirk Series is a funny romantic comedy told from the male’s point of view. Set in wine country, it’s the story of two people who are similar and appreciate each other. A lovely change of pace for the rom-com.
The dialog between Frank and Mikey is laugh out loud funny. My husband got mad a couple of times because I guffawed while he was trying to sleep. I tried to disguise it as an awkward sneeze, but he saw right through me.
While this is a rom-com, it had a complexity and a sophistication about it. There are a lot of characters and they are all developed and important to moving the story along. The backdrop of the winery was a nice setting and I appreciated the nuances between the grapes and the characters. (i.e. fungus-nasty ex)
It was a quick and easy read and I flew right through it from beginning to end. This is the first time I’ve read this author and I am following so I can be sure and get the next installment of the series.

This wonderful story by Jen Luerssen is a romantic comedy. It is a book that I enjoyed reading. It hooked me in from the very beginning and I didn’t want to put it down until I had read the last page. It had me with a smile on my face and in some cases laughing out loud. Some conversations I read had me falling off the couch laughing and holding my side. The innuendos come at a fast pace in this story. I enjoyed reading about Frank and Mikey. Frank is a musician. He is not shy about that he is grumpy and seems to always fall for the wrong woman. Then he meets Mikey. Mikey is a winemaker. She is smart, strong, and independent. These two have more in common than a lot of couples. It seems more like fate than coincidence that they find each other. These two are attracted to each other and there is a connection between them. Will they keep things between them casual or will emerging feelings lead to something more? What does the future hold for Frank and Mikey? Read this book to find out. I loved the bantering back and forth that goes on between Frank, Mikey, and the other characters that you are introduced to. There is playful bantering, flirting, and even dirty talking. Steamy scenes are included in this book that will have the temperature in the room rising. This is a wonderfully written story that has some amazing and interesting characters. Recommended reading.

This is my first book by this author, I enjoyed it from beginning to the end. This story took me on on a roller coaster of emotions from laughter to feeling compassion. I enjoyed the way this story is told in the pov of Frank and how he told it. I love the characters and their chemistry in this book. They are strong, creative, sassy and of course I can’t forget the steamy parts! The plot was fun and easy flowing, I read this in one sitting. I highly recommend reading this book!

Brilliant story! I loved that the book was told from Frank’s POV it made it really different to read. There were some great moments in this story and the two main characters Frank and Mikey definitely made it for me. I loved how I was crying with laughter one minute and then crying with emotion the next. The author kept me engaged the whole way through and I never wanted it to end. When I first read the blurb I already had an idea in my mind what Frank would be like but I think because of how the author decided to write this story I really understood him more. I loved the banter between the two of them and there was definitely a lot of sexual chemistry and tension between them! This is the second book that I have read by this author that I have loved and I cannot wait to read more from her again in the future. I highly recommend F*cking Frank – it is a fantastic read with brilliant characters and plenty of laugh out loud moments!

I’m F*cking Frank (yeah there’s an asterisk, worked for that kids book, didn’t it?) and this book is about me and Mikey. You’d probably rather be in Mikey’s head since she’s not as much of an asshole, but unfortunately, the author finds me more interesting.
Mikey and I were literally separated at birth, and when we get back together, it’s pretty great. She could do way better, but who am I to set her standards? I make music, she makes wine. Together we mostly argue and f*ck (jeez, even here an asterisk?), so you know, we’re perfect for each other. At least I think we are, she wants to keep it casual and like a jerk I fell in love.
She and I f*ck a lot, hopefully it’s enough for you pervs. I mean, Myself? I like a good paranormal with maybe two or three powerful demigods or shifters going at it, but you do you. Where was I? Yeah, so buy this book if you like my abs and that vee thing Mikey swoons over. You could get the ebook version or you could buy the paperback and show my abs off like nature intended.
“Hey Carol, what are you reading?” I ask.
“Um, War and Peace,” you say and I know you are lying your face off, Carol. You like romance, own that shit!
So go ahead, buy this book, read it in three hours, and move on to the next one that will be undervalued by snobs with no joy in their life.
Jen Luerssen grew up in New Jersey and then lived for 20 years in the San Francisco Bay area. She has held various jobs in her adult life. Some examples are nanny, waitress, receptionist, dispatcher, caterer, and finally teacher. She spent 10 years teaching 4th and 5th graders, until she finally felt the call to write. It’s been plaguing her thoughts and dreams for years, and those thoughts finally fought their way out.
Jen loves to read, obsessively. She has an unhealthy attachment to her Kindle and is rarely seen without it. She’ll read anything, but especially loves good smut or a post-apocalyptic young adult book.
After “retiring” from teaching, Jen sat down and wrote a book and then another and another and it was the most fun she’s ever had working. She is self-published even though she’s not sure how it works and hopes that people like her funny stories.
Jen is back in her native New Jersey and lives with her husband, daughter, and dog, enjoying suburban life.
