Review | Love Online by Penelope Ward --> 4 Stars
TITLE: Love Online AUTHOR: Penelope Ward
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
RELEASE DATE: August 27th, 2018
From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new,
sexy STANDALONE novel.
We met in the least likely of places. It started out innocently enough. I was “ScreenGod” and she was “Montana,” but of course, those weren’t our actual names, just the virtual cloaks we hid behind.
Logging in at night and talking to her was my escape—my sanctuary.
Her real name was Eden, I’d soon come to find out.
From the first time we connected online, I found myself transfixed.
She was an addiction.
At first, we knew nothing about each other’s real identities…and she was adamant that we keep things that way. Anonymity had no effect on our unstoppable chemistry, though. If anything, it allowed us to open up even more in ways we may not have otherwise.
Eden was funny, intelligent, gorgeous—everything I’d ever wanted in a woman.
But I couldn’t really have her.
I had accepted things would have to stay the way they were—until the day I found a clue that led me straight to her.
So I took a chance. And that was when our love story really began.

I always find myself fascinated by Penelope Ward’s plot twists. Love Online sounded so good when I first read the blurb, but it took a turn I wasn’t anticipating right from the start making this story even more interesting. The way the main hero and heroine meet was so unexpected and interesting.
"Love is supposed to feel like this - nonsensical, risky - even if the person makes the least sense logically."
Ryder and Eden’s unorthodox relationship was amazing! They meet online, but you feel the clear connection they slowly form every single time they interact. This book isn’t big on drama and that’s something I really enjoyed about it. It’s more about the beautiful growth of their sweet love story. They have some obstacles to overcome as in any relationship and they make their choices with maturity after some thinking.
"Life takes you in unexpected directions. There's good, and there's bad to that. Sometimes on a detour, you find what you need in the least likely of places. And then you wonder if that was the direction you were always meant to go."
I don’t want to tell you more about the story, because it’s best if you enter it blindly. Love Online is filled with emotions and is a lovely romance! It will surely make you swoon, but also chuckle from the amusing banters and blush with the sexy moments of passion between Ryder and Eden. It’s a very enjoyable read!
