This was a really fun and sweet book with an enthralling premise. I loved the chemistry between Lauren and Alex and couldn't get enough of them. I would highly recommend.

Olivia Dade has once again written a stellar romance.
I love her plus size characters as they feel so true to life, while also being just removed enough to give a compelling story!
The forced proximity trope worked especially well in this setting, and I loved the power dynamic and the way they played against each other.
It’s just a truly good romance and I’m excited to read more!

I must firstly apologise for the amount of time it has taken me to provide a review of this book, my health was rather bad for quite some time, something that had me in hospital on numerous occasions and simply didnt leave me with the time I once had to do what I love most.

Unfortunately that does mean I have missed the archive date for many of these books, so It would feel unjust throwing any review together without being able to pay attention to each novel properly.

However, I am now back to reading as before and look forward to sharing my honest reviews as always going forward. I thank you f0r the patience and understanding throughout x

2.5 but I'll round up to 3.

All the Feels is a decent read. I appreciate the fact that Lauren is a plus size character who is hugely likeable and her transformation throughout the book is heartwarming. Alex is a complex and loveable character. His integrity, compassion and determination to do the right thing make you root for him the whole way through the book. The text conversations between him and Marcus are quite funny as well as the ones with the Gods of the Gates cast. Overall, a decent read, just not the most memorable for me unfortunately.

I absolutely Loved this book.
The timeline for this starts about halfway through Spoiler Alert in case anyone is wondering.

The book starts with Alex, a fellow star on Gods of the Gate with Marcus, being given a minder after getting involved in a fight in a bar. The minder is Lauren (Wren), a very short fat woman who happens to be the cousin of the showrunner, who incidentally she hates.

Alex has ADHD and loves to talk, and eventually gets Wren to open up to him. She has to live in his guest house whilst she has the job and the two inevitably grow close.

This book made me laugh out loud on multiple occasions. I adore Wren and Alex and they're back and forth. Alex loves to talk and loves to prod Wren and wind her up, which I have very good experience with as my husband is exactly the same! He also finds my unusual face attractive for reasons unbeknownst to me, like Alex does with Wren.

These two definitely had miscommunication issues which were frustrating but my heart ached for them whenever things went wrong. They're both so sweet and just want the best for each other.
I felt there was some great character development in this book and I was very happy with the epilogue to see where they were in their lives. Even though what happened in Vegas seemed a bit fast, but hey, they're not getting any younger!

The formatting of this arc was a bit frustrating, as with Spoiler Alert, so I definitely want to get a copy of the fully formatted ebook.

I would love to see more of Alex and Wren but for now I'll be diving into Ship Wrecked to get my Olivia Dade fix!

Alex and Lauren are two very different people and they brought together by Alex need someone to 'mind' him to keep him out of trouble. They aren't just different personalities they are from different worlds, Alex is famous and Lauren works in a hospital.

I thought this was a sweet book and I am glad it had a happy ending. I'd recommend if anyone wants a cute lil romance with a hint of spice.

Firstly apologies it's taken me so long but thank you to the publisher and netgalley for this copy✨✨

Thanks to Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

I'm afraid I didn't love this book. I just couldn't feel the chemistry between Alex and Lauren. He's pretty mean to her and I just wasn't invested in them at all.

Olivia Dade is an author who I've heard a lot of love and I'm so glad I've finally picked up her books. It did take me a little while to get into this one but I am going to blame my reading mood and reading slump for that.

As, when I properly started to read this one, I fell in love with the writing and the characters. It is an amazing romance story that I thoroughly enjoyed.

I will certainly be picking up more books by Olivia Dade and highly recommend you give this one a read!

This book was so beautifully written
It is really refreshing to read books where the character is not perfect. The author kept this book so relevant and for the reader to be able to identify with the characters within the book.
The book is heartwarming and really does have exactly what the title says - all the feels!

Whilst I wasn't a huge fan of Spoiler Alert, I thought I would give this a go. It was definitely an improvement and an enjoyable read. It seems that most have a preferred book out of the two and for me this is the one.

This one was a lovely read. I really enjoyed reading this one. I just love this kind of books.
4 stars read for me

I´m going to be honest. I picked this book many times and put it back down again. I was just not feeling it at the beginning. But one day I decided to push through it and thank god I did, because this was a really cute book. I loved the fanfiction elements in the story, those references made me go back in time, so it was a plus for me. Alex and Lauren´s relationship was also nicely developed and I enjoyed all of their scenes together, specially certain tropes that appeared along the way. Overall, i recommend this book to anyone looking for a cutesy enjoyable read, full of fluffiness and feels.

Unfortunately All the Feels was not for me. Lauren and Alex chemistry just wasn't there for me and it was actually quite off putting how much of Alex's thoughts were about Laurens size. It just didn't do it for me this time i'm sorry to say!

This is my second Olivia Dade book and I loved it just as much as the first. Glorious characters, great writing, funny, sexy, and emotionally intelligent. Plus I always love reading fanfic in novels. Olivia Dade is fast becoming one of my favourite authors.

I'm not sure of the exact reason, but I preferred this book to Spoiler Alert. I found I connected more with the characters and didn't mind as much this time the Game of Thrones similarities.

However, I didn't love the fatphobia directed towards Lauren. It was constantly brought up and reminded, and I do feel it was a little overdone.

I am in love with Alex Woodroe and that is all. I don't really know what else to say. This book was such a delight to read! It's made me an Olivia Dade fan for life. I can't wait to read more of her work!

Firstly, I just want to point out that I absolutely love that Alex got to live the fanfic life of his dreams cause my boy deserves all the happiness and fluff in the world. Alex is an amazing character - charming and charismatic, but also dorky and annoying, kind and compassionate. He's just so beautiful all round and I love him so much!

Lauren is just as amazing. She's a fighter. Her determination and grit are commendable. I absolutely love how kind and thoughtful she is, though it pained me to see how she wasn't kind to herself many a time.

Lauren and Alex balanced each other out very well and their romance was absolutely gorgeous. I loved how they became friends first, how they started caring for each other deeply, and then romantic feelings developed. The entire arc was so well written and it made me root for them so bad.

This was the perfect romance read with the appropriate amount of banter, a scorching slow burn romance that brought a smile to my face!

As soon as I read Spoiler Alert I knew I had to read anything Olivia Dade wrote and this book did not disappoint.

I loved these characters and this story. You really got to know these characters before the romance started and I really appreciated that.

This book had me laughing and crying. It was such a good read and one I definitely recommend if you loved Spoiler Alert.

I really loved the other books by the author but somehow this one felt a bit flat overall. Not sure if it was the hero that I didn’t like or connect with this time, but I can’t say that I enjoyed it 100%

Very grateful to the publisher for my review copy

A fantastic follow up to Spoiler Alert. Dade is exceptionally talented and creates funny, sharp, and romantic stories that leave you feeling warm and fuzzy inside. I loved it.

All the Feels is the second book in a series that follows the actors of a Game of Thrones-esque TV show named Gods of the Gates, and the ordinary, non-famous women they fall in love with. This book follows Alex, an erratic and bighearted actor with ADHD, and Lauren, the woman whose job it is to keep him from getting into trouble.
