Ever since then she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s had to be content with settling for \u00e2\u20ac\u0153less\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. Having seen what other men are like, Darcy is certain that Tom Valeska is the man for her. There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just one catch. Tom doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t like her. In fact, she\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s 99% sure of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But times are changing, and Darcy is determined to lock Tom down for good. No matter the cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Review:<\/strong> <em>99% Mine<\/em> is a fun, amusing, and cute romance novel centred around Darcy, who has spent her life being in the background, never able to leave the shadow of her twin brother. We meet Tom, who has forever been caught between the squabbling twins. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a chew toy caught between two ferocious beasts, neither of which seem to be in any mood to let go. In spite of the constant bickering, Darcy knows she can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t let Tom slip away this time. She has to fight for him. She has to have 99% of him. Can she do it? Or will he forever remain her perfect man, destined to never be together?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This book is both witty and hilarious at times. I thoroughly enjoyed this light-hearted take on romance and the very relatable trials of having a twin brother always interfering!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, if this doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t quench your thirst I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d highly recommend you check out <em>The Hating Game<\/em> by Sally Thorne.
