ARC Review: Love Not Qualified by Maeve Hazel

Publication Date: August 6, 2024

I enjoyed reading Love Not Qualified! Haelyn goes through a major and beautiful journey throughout this book as she learns how to love and respect herself no matter the situation in front of her. Tristan transforms from a cold, almost rude boss to someone who is willing to show the love he wished he once had. Watching these transformations was a truly beautiful thing to see!

It took these characters a long time to realize how suited they are for one another, and I was along for the ride. I loved the plot line of a dating app and the way that it affected the growing dynamic between Haelyn and Tristan. There’s also the role of Tristan’s wealth in contrast to Haelyn’s, and we see him become far more generous and kind as the story progresses.

I’m so glad the characters figured themselves out and wound up happy together. The story had lots of ups and downs, but it’s always worth it at the end for the HEA!

I voluntarily reviewed a free advance copy of this book provided by the author. The opinions expressed are my own.
