The Virgin Club: A Romantic Comedy Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 553 ratings

Emma Parker's anonymous diary blog is her safe haven for secret confessions – until a viral post turns her private life into office gossip.

Handling a hellish boss and a cramped studio in the city is one thing, but being the perpetual fifth wheel to her best friends and their newfound love interests? That's Emma's breaking point. In a bold—okay, desperate—move fueled by one too many appletinis, Emma transforms her frustration into a viral sensation with a blog post: the 'Lose My Virginity Challenge.' Suddenly, her once-quiet blog is the talk of the internet…and the office.

When Emma's co-worker crush, Logan finds out she is the annonymous blogger, Emma's besties come up with a brilliant plan to finally win over the untouchable Logan.

But then Emma's hot new billionaire boss, Alex, comes into the picture with plans of his own and a surprising secret she's totally unprepared for.

    I will admit that when I first read the blurb of this book, I was a little apprehensive. I thought perhaps it was going to be like some kind of reality show where all the girl does is try to sleep around or something like that. But this little voice in the back of my head kept telling me to give it a try. I am so glad that I did.

    It's not at all what I thought it was going to be. I was surprised to find myself relating to Emma so much, especially considering I am a generation older than she is, which I think helped me to really get into the story. Emma has her job that she goes to daily and does well at, two best friends, and seems to be doing okay on her own, only she is a big fail in the romance department. She is also a writer and has an anonymous blog that talks about a pact that she and her friends made in college - to remain virgins all the way through school. This is something that you almost never hear about anymore. Usually it seems like people are competing to see how early they can lose it, instead.

    So when Jada and Lauren move on to their respective serious relationships, and subsequently give up their V-cards, Emma is left being the last one standing. She decides to shift her blog's focus from being a single girl still trying to hold onto her virginity to vowing to give it up by the time she turns 24 in a few weeks. And suddenly she goes viral.

    People can't stop tuning in to see what kind of trouble Emma is going to get herself into today, especially when it involves her little love triangle that has developed between her, Logan - the new hottie at work, and Alex - the new boss. Even more intriguing is that Logan and Alex have their own past, making the game a little bit more exciting. And of course, she is still, in theory, anonymous, but you know she is going to get found out at some point.

    What I loved is that Emma ends up learning a lot about herself as she writes out her story. She is figuring out how to find what's real and good in a relationship and continues to realize that it's not all about sex. She learns a lot about trust and love as well as friendship and loyalty. She learns that blogging after enjoying a few appletinis may not be the smartest move (although it did let her be honest, which led to thousands of followers, and who hasn't done this at least once or five times before?). And I love that she learns to embrace herself as a super lovable klutz, which actually makes her even more endearing to me. (Says the woman who just recently sprained her ankle doing something stupid and trivial as well.)

    If you're looking for a lot of hot sex, don't bother. Or maybe you should try this book, just to try something different. I actually loved having a cleaner romance to read for a change. The men will still give you plenty of swoon-worthy moments in the romance department. And you won't be able to help but laugh at, but mostly with Emma, along the way. I was really reminded of beloved authors like Sophie Kinsella, Helen Fielding, Marian Keyes, and other great indies like Tawdra Kandle, Melissa Baldwin, and Becky Monson. Adding Kayley Wood to my list and definitely reading more of her work.

    I received a complimentary copy in exchange for my honest review.

    This book was very funny and entertaining. I was constantly laughing to myself as I was reading it. Emma was a great character and it was a lot of fun to see everything from her perspective. There were a lot of times where I could really relate to how she was feeling, such as being a 5th wheel with her friends and their significant others and her interactions with her manager and co-workers. I also liked that Emma was very sharp witted and said what she thought a lot of the times. I enjoyed reading about Emma’s relationship with her two best friends, especially loved reading their group texts with each other as they were all very hilarious. Also, throughout the book, there were two potential guys that she really liked and was crushing on; and the book kept me guessing on which guy was the right one for her, or if neither of them were. I liked how she had to really get to know both guys before figuring out if they were the right person or not. There were a lot of ups and downs for her and not just an instantly happy story. That seemed more realistic to me and I really enjoyed that in this book. I would definitely recommend this book for anyone looking for a fun read.

    This was an amazingly well-written story. I absolutely enjoyed everything about it. It was so good I had trouble putting it down and read it straight through in one sitting. This story is about girl Emma who many a year ago started a Blog because her and her friends were virgins and they didn't want to lose their virginity just to anybody. So they made a pact that they would stay virgins till they found the one. Now her two friends have found the loves of their lies and she is Left Behind the only virgin. When her Blog has viral after one too many appletinis. She blogs her plan to lose her virginity before her 24th birthday. But as things go she gets offers from other people on her blog to help her with her little problem but she has one particular person in mind. But little did she know he's not what she thinks he is and soon another man comes into her life and he just maybe the one she's been looking for all her life. But he has a little secret of his own so will she lose her virginity before her 24th birthday you'll have to read the book to find out. I can't wait to read more stories by kayley wood she has an amazing way with words and I can't wait to read more by her

    OK, so I will start off by saying I did enjoy this unique blog about wanting to lose your virginity but don't lose it novel and it has some twists I did not expect; however, I will not be continuing the series. Here's my notes (no more spoilers). The good: The book was in singular first person so you get to really see what the main character is thinking. There are lots of "what my grandma always says" quotes which her familiar and old school heart warming. Emma's family is very down to earth and real. The book was funny at times and I liked how it focused on the plot instead of using physical descriptions of characters (in fact this was the first book I've ever read that didn't describe the characters at all, in fact you can deduce their race but it was never discussed. The not so good: This book seems like it was written for teenagers because the characters acted like it. Especially the girls, even Logan at times. This would be fine if it wasn't intended for a mature audience. Also everything happened so quick; maybe it was how the book was laid out but I didn't have time to absorb stuff. Also when the discussion came about losing virginity, it was like immediate done that. Some parts of the book were very predictable. Lastly, the quote "what goes up comes crashing down" was used so repeatedly I wanted to use white out. LIke I said if this book was for young adults I would have rated it higher.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A happy surprise!
    Reviewed in Australia on March 20, 2019
    When someone you very much trust hands you a book and says they'd like for you to read it, you of course read it without question. Even if it is a genre of book that you don't frequently read. That said, when I started TVC I knew very little about the concept other than it was a romance story. I wasn't expecting to be so drawn in. Just a few chapters, I'd promised myself. Those few chapters quickly turned to consuming the whole book in one setting. The voice of Emma was refreshing. The innocent and naïve character we meet in the beginning grows as the story progresses, admitting to her mistakes, working out what is important to her, and gaining a whole new perspective on life. Of course, it wouldn't be a romance without a male lead, and in TVC we get two, and luckily our main character get her HEA with the one who doesn't remind the reader of one of the worst villains in romantic history. And what would a romance be without that special kind of female that we've all had the misfortune to meet at one point or another. Really though, I think the highest praise I can give this novel is that I am the most picky reader and this was a book I could not put down. I'd like to say that this could almost be a modern day take on a Pride and Prejudice retelling, but that might be giving too much away.

    A fun read.
    There were some parts that made me roll my eyes... Others were just the right amount of steamy.
    I felt the book could have ended a while back...the whole drama about outing Emma made it a bit of a potboiler... But ok..not bad

    I have previously read books written by this author under the name K.L Bryce and have loved those stories so definitely wanted to give these books ago. Loved everything about this book, I could see it all playing out like a film in my head. It was written so well. Onto the next book in the series.

    Reviewed in Italy on July 23, 2019
    Il libro è davvero carino, molto simpatico, fa immedesimare molto nelle vicende della protagonista e fare il tifo per lei alla fine è inevitabile! L'inglese è molto semplice, comprensibile ai più, la storia è romantica ma al tempo stesso divertente. I personaggi mi sono piaciuti, sono ben delineati e coerenti con loro stessi. Lo consiglio davvero!
