My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Modern romance story that keeps the reader engaged about the life and intimate struggles of celebrity influencer Sophie Smith! Miss Smith allows you to be totally enveloped inside her head and see things through her eyes with her views on fame, self-expression, and life as a celebrity since she was 14. I truly enjoyed the perspective as it wasn’t one in which I have read often. Once I got started though I really had a hard time putting it down unless my eyes were drooping close. It was a pleasure to experience the paths that Sophie had to explore in order to reflect upon her own expectations. Do yourself a favor and take the stroll with the famous Sophie Smith! Though I struggled a little with the character talking to herself or to the reader (it seemed like both at times), the book is still something I would recommend for a modern romance!

This is my first book by this author and the first book in this series. I cannot wait to see what comes next! The storyline felt realistic, and I enjoyed getting to know G and Sophie more. I laughed a lot while reading. I wasn’t so sure of Sophie in the beginning, but she became easier to like throughout the book. If you’re looking for something sweet and funny, while also being realistic then this book is for you!

This is a fab four-star read. This is number one in the Mixed Emotions series and my first read by this author, but it won’t be the last, as I enjoyed the premise of the story and am eager to get my teeth into number two. It could have done with more polish, but overall, I enjoyed the story. The chemistry is good, but the romance was okay. Sophie irritated me a little at first, I just couldn’t get to grips with her at first, she left me cold, but then I warmed to her and I really liked her in the end.

(Un)Loved is the first book in the Mixed Emotions series is the start of a new series. This is my first book by this author, and I was unsure of what to expect. The story is a sweet, realistic read of love and timing. I enjoyed the characters and story. I felt the story was dragging or a bit slow at different points. This just might be me and my timing of reading this book. I want to read the next book in the series because I liked the storyline and characters. I also loved the llama. What a great character in the story.
I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

What happens when you meet the love of your life but your life isn’t where it needs to be? That is what happens with the main characters of this book. They are amazing and their lives are going where they want them to but is that enough? Does what they’re doing now affect what they want in the future? Can they work things out to get what they are wanting? These are the questions that I was constantly asking myself during this book. The characters have growth that you won’t see coming. There are is many bumps and bruises that they get along the way. This book had me crying, cursing, ranting, and swooning. I feel like I went on an emotional roller coaster. I wanted it to end then didn’t want it to end. I feel like I got whiplash with how things were constantly changing in this story. It almost gave me a book hangover. Not a lot of books can do that but this one did and the makes it a 5 star read. It is a witty, fun, romantic, steamy, soul crushing adventurous book. It constantly makes you wonder, is love enough. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking to be emotionally abused. Just kidding, kind of. It is a great read and you want be disappointed while reading it.

Sophie is a famous actress who has been in the industry since she was a child. She is extremely dedicated to her job which leaves her without many personal relationships. She has some major attraction for her now ex costar G. He offers to have her come to his family’s farm in France so she can take a break from her career.

There was so much potential for the story here but there was some things I didn’t care for. The drama was a bit much. Both Sophie and G had their own things to work through on the trip but everything was so quick. Realistically the problems they had to figure out wouldn’t be as quick to resolve so the timeline seemed to be much longer than it actually was. There was also a TON of back and forth in their relationship that was just too much for my taste.

The story was still enjoyable so I would definitely read something else from this author.

This story is so cute, so sweet and oh so sexy. Another first book for me by this new to me author and I cannot wait to read more by her. I actually laughed out loud at some of Sophie Smith’s antics. I love the way the author writes this book as if the main character, Sophie, is telling the story. Her side comments, like we are inside her head, are hilarious. Easily turned page after page. I also loved the other main character of G, I call my husband G, so funny. I loved “watching” how they grew throughout the entire story, as if that was the major reason for the story. Definitely worth taking a chance on this author.

Let me preface this by saying I am not a romance reader. Paranormal romance yes, reverse harem, yes, and fantasy romance also yes. But straight romance is TYPICALLY not my thing.

However, this was absolutely adorable. You could really feel Sophie and Guillaume’s emotions through the way of the writing. Also, G’s family? Oh my goodness could they be any more adorable?

I read this all in one sitting within a couple of hours. I truly enjoyed this. It was fun and all-around a great time.

(UN)Loved (Mixed Emotions Series) by Katy Hunter. This is such a fun romantic comedy read. Its the story of Gil an actor and Sophie an actress. They have been friends forever but when they find out they are both attracted to one another they decide to take it to the next level. When they decide to go to France together to meet Gil’s family the craziness begins. Sophie is a complete city girl but when she lands on the French farm of Gil’s parents she has to become a farm girl quickly. When Gil’s gorgeous ex girlfriend shows up it brings all of Sophie’s insecurities to the surface. Sophie is crazy about Gil but he’s very afraid of commitment. When a handsome Frenchman starts to hit on Sophie she is torn. Throw in a crazy Llama and you have a romantic comedy like no other. I can’t wait to read the next book to find out if Gil and Sophie make it!

I liked it but I was confused at the beginning, to the point I almost started over. Instead I kept reading (Un)loved. About two people who love each other but are so broken they can’t be together.
It’s sad and happy all at the same time. The author makes you feel for the two main characters.
Sophie and Gil are actors just finishing up a movie they filmed together. A film that made them both of them broke the number #1 rule. “Don’t fall in love with your co-star.” The love they have for one another is fierce, but both characters are emotionally broken which leads to a toxic relationship.
It’s all about navigating how they feel for one another while trying to figure out who they are as individuals.
Do they end up together?
What choices about life does each character make?
These are just some questions that come to mind while reading this book. Of course if you’re like me, you will be rooting for them, unfortunately their situation doesn’t make a relationship easy, if successful at all.
If you like getting involved with the character’s feeling like you’re in the story with them, I suggest you give this book a shot. Since that’s exactly how it makes one feel.

This is my first read by this author and it will not be my last. If the rest of the series is anything like this one, I will enjoy reading them all.
I really loved this authors writing style. It had me engaged and i could just picture each and every scene in my head as I was reading. And the characters in this, i loved them and the story was so realistic and not blown out of proportion, I could see this happening for anyone.

Great read and look forward to the rest of the series.

This is a fun, lighthearted romance which kept me happily turning the pages. Sophie never planned on falling in love with Gil, but whilst staying with his family and getting some French mountain air, she seems to be changing her mind. Unfortunately for actress and influencer Sophie, Gil has a bad case of commitment phobia. To complicate things further for Sophie, who is having an existential crisis, she also has to fend off a Frenchman and deal with her boyfriends very beautiful ex girlfriend. Oh, and she’s also dealing with a very grumpy llama, and being chased around the farm by angry goats! I found the main characters, Sophie and Gil a little hard to relate to in the beginning of the novel but I grew to love them as the storyline developed. Gil’s loving and liberated family were great and I enjoyed the interactions between them all. The grumpy llama brought humour to the story, as did the angry goats. The French mountain setting came to life through the descriptive narrative and made me feel immersed in the story. Overall, this was an enjoyable and entertaining read.

As much as I enjoyed this book I also found myself getting quite frustrated with Sophie and Gil I wanted them to just figure it all out and be happy, but good things happen or patience is a virtue or something like that.

Their time in France with his family and the animals was my favorite time, i know i giggled a few times.  I mean how can you go wrong when llamas and other animals are involved?

There are so many little things about this book that made me enjoy it.  Gil’s family definitely took a little piece of my heart with them.

Katy Hunter delivers a good one in the first book in the Mixed Emotions series, (Un)loved. The characters are well developed, although Gil seems a little too perfect (even with his fear of commitment) and Sophie is very dramatic (fitting though, since she is an actress). I like the change in scenery from France to L.A. although neither setting seemed to be the main focus in the story (France did get a little more read time as the more important scenes take place there). Overall, (Un)loved is a fairly quick, easy read. The love story here plays out a bit more realistically than most romance books, even though both characters are celebrities. I was impressed with Katy Hunter’s mix of characters as none of them were too similar to another. I would definitely read another book by Katy Hunter.

This was a 3.5 star read for me. I honestly really like the story, and I laughed more than once. It has the potential to be an amazing story I just couldn’t get that into it. The writing felt off to me. Not the story itself, but how it was executed. Is it supposed to be diary format? A journal/diary was introduced in the first chapter but it didn’t read like journal entries. And the timeline was so off I couldn’t tell where one scene ended and one began. Like I said above, I love the story itself and enjoyed the humor of the book. It was just off to me and this would 100% be a 5 star read to me if I could just make more sense of the time and how the scenes are executed. It felt a little rushed to me, may be what I’m trying to say. Either way I did enjoy this book and would read more from this author in the future!

This book is the first book of the series. It’s also the first book I’ve read by this author. I’m glad I picked it up! This book was such a cute read.

Sophie and Gil have finished up filming their movie. Boy do they have chemistry both on and off set. Sophie and Gil both have their obstacles to work through. Sophie is used to being alone and Gil is afraid of commitment. Will these two be able to make it work off set? Is that even what they want? Gil talks Sophie into taking a break and going to France with him and his family. Maybe this trip is just what they need to figure things out?

I couldn’t get enough of Gil’s family. They were so crazy but it was fun! This book was very well written and was such a good read. I didn’t want to put it down!

This is book one in the Mixed Emotions Series, and it can be read as a standalone. Sophie is an actress who has fallen in love with her co-star Gil. They start dating even though Gil has commitment issues. Sophie decides to take a break from acting and publicity and go home with Gil to his parents farm in the mountains. While there Sophie finds herself and is ready to make some major changes in her life, even if that means leaving Gil behind. This was a lovey story of a woman finding herself and not giving up on making herself happy, with or without the guy.

(Un)loved is Book One of 2 in the Mixed Emotions Series. In it we are introduced to Gil, an actor, and Sophie, an actress. They have worked on many movies sets together and spent time off-set together as friends, but their relationship has always been platonic. When they discover they have a mutual attraction to one another they decide to take their relationship to the next level.

When Gil invites Sophie to go to France with him to meet his parents she is thrilled. However, when she gets to the French countryside, she quickly must learn how to go from city girl to country girl as she is thrown into helping on the family farm. Sophie finds herself introduced to a cranky llama, sexually liberated parents, and goats that put the run on her. As if that isn’t enough, she doesn’t know where she stands in her relationship with Gil. She’s madly in love with him but he’s afraid of commitment. Then along comes Gil’s drop dead gorgeous ex-girlfriend which complicates things even farther. Will Gil ever be able to show Sophie his true feelings?

I loved the author’s writing style and often found myself chuckling out loud at some of the things Sophie said. Despite being a city girl and an actress Sophie is not stuck up. She is down to earth, funny, and genuine. She truly loves those around her. Gil is a nice guy but who has been burned by bad relationships in the past. Throughout the book I found myself hoping that Sophie would be the girl with the key to unlock Gil’s heart.

This is such a cute and adorable romance story. Gil and Sophie are the main characters and the story that unfolds is such a sweet one. The author’s writing style is so smooth and funny. She writes very detailed. You can easily connect enough to form mental imagery of the scenarios. Gil and Sophie’s romance makes me think of me and my husband. I was NOT looking for love and then he just showed up and we are best friends. I just really loved this story and the way the author captivated the budding romance.

This is the first book in the series and is 209 pages in length. This story follows Gil and Sophie. I must admit, I did kind of like Gil’s family LOL. These two just finished working on a movie together and Sophie is in desperate need of some R&R. Gil suggests going with his family to their farm in France. Gil seems to have commitment issues and Sophie is going to try to rectify that. But that Llama though!

(UN)Loved is the first book in the Mixed Emotions Series. This is a cute romance that pulled me in from the beginning and I had a hard time putting it down. This is a new to me author that I will definitely be checking out what other books she has written. The characters are fun and relatable and the storyline flowed so well I felt like apart of the story. This is a story about Sophie and Gil, both are movie stars and they were leading roles in a movie they just finished filming . Sophie finds herself wanting more but does Gil have commitment issues? These two have crazy chemistry between them on and off the set. Sophie is invited to go with him to France for a visit with his family. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. I can’t wait for the next book in this series.

This is my first read by this author and this book was fun! Two actors who start off as just costars, but what happens when love gets involved? Sophie didn’t plan on falling for Gil, it just happened. Will he return her love? Or friend zone her to keep things professional? This book was a fun read, but I do wish there was a little more drama to it, especially involving Emily. Good read!

Gil and Sophie just finished wrapping up their movie. These two have amazing chemistry on and off the set. Sophie is used to being alone and Gil is afraid of commitment. There are a lot of obstacles in the way of these two while trying to see if a relationship is what they want. There are a lot of great characters in this book. I loved Gil’s family and even some of the animals. There is good character growth in this story for both Sophie and Gil. Will Sophie decide what she wants to do? Will Gil work out his commitment issues? This story had funny moments, romance, twists and turns and was written in such a way that I was pulled right in. The author kept me entertained throughout the entire story. I enjoyed this author’s writing style. I recommend reading this story.

This book was a very cute read. This is my first book—to my knowledge—by Katy Hunter. But she is definitely one I will read again based on this book. Sofie and Gil. What can I say about this book? The connection is present from the beginning. This book has very realistic themes and it was a nice change for the high fantasy kick that I have been on. I loved seeing them together and how they progressed in their relationship. If you are looking for a cute realistic read this is definitely one you need to read.

Love this book! The story was perfectly imperfect. The characters were real and full of life. Sophie seems to have it all or is all she has not what she wants. Guillaume is her costar and gorgeous. The attraction is there, but would they give in. Are they even headed in the same direction? I can’t wait to read the book!
