Thank you Netgalley for this ARC.
The Pizza Man by Eddy Twice is a quirky and charming story that combines humor and heart. The book follows the life of a pizza delivery man whose encounters with various customers lead to unexpected moments of connection and self-discovery. Twice’s writing is lighthearted and filled with wit, creating a fun and easy read. The characters are relatable, and the storyline offers a mix of comedy and emotional depth. Overall, it’s a delightful, feel-good book that’s perfect for anyone looking for a light yet meaningful read.

I really enjoyed this book. I adore Willow and King, the spice was spicing and I was living for it.
I cannot wait to read more from Bree

Insanely cute read, so cute it was “cheesy”!
A nice quick read with the perfect amount of romance and humour!

I really enjoyed reading this book. The plot is written very well and the characters have amazing chemistry between them. Definitely a recommend
.

Very slow burn between two characters, one who is overlooked and disregarded at her job, and the other who is a trust fund baby running from his family's name and money.
I liked the pov's switching, but I overall just couldn't connect to the characters enough. The slow burn itself felt a bit too slow, but I understand why it was written as such.

The plot, the setting, the side characters were charming..and charm me it did. I loved how these two came together and then gre and helped one another just to be themselves whilst falling for eachother and who they really were.
This was a bright and fun read. Cozy. Warm. And just the right type of book for those times you just want a lovely book to make you giggle and smirk with the wit added in.

Rounded up, should really be 3.5 stars.
The story is beautiful and a quick and easy read. Actually, it took me 2 days, and I didn't want to put it down. I like the build up, how they finally gotten together even though it can totally be interpret as creeper stalking. But Joe doesn't want to be known as a spoilt billionaire's kid, trying to break out on his own. Bella kinda given up on love but maybe this guy can be true. Bella can stand on her own, and she has her own set of baggage. The money thing never really came up between the two, even though both parents were next to each other in the hospital.
Their misunderstanding was dumb, but Joe's sisters cleared it up quickly. I love both of their support systems to help balance things out. I will say, the point of clarity for the two to clear the air was anti-climatic, and maybe alot of people's lives are that way. But for a novel, it was a little bleep.
Like I said, the story on the build up was well done and beautiful where two people came together in the most destined way. The conflict came with a price, and it felt like the focus was more on Joe's said than Bella's side. Neither good nor bad, just unbalanced view. But darn it, I wanted to know what happened, so stayed up way too late just to finish the book.

Joe is a trust fund baby trying to make his own way. Bella works a corporate job with a very rigid schedule. This was a sweet and romantic book that managed to captivate my attention very quickly.

I had trouble with all the different characters in this book. I struggled with keeping track of everyone, however, Bella and Joe were good together, and the spice was nice.

Such a really cute and quick read. The slow burn romance was very well done, and I just loved the characters themselves - so charming and fun. The humor was also off the charts and more than once did I find myself laughing and giggling - completely loving the scenes.
Thank you so much to NetGalley and Victoria Editing for this e-arc in exchange for my honest review!

The Pizza Man is a wonderful novel that is ideal for a quick, feel-good read since it combines lighthearted charm with beautiful romance. As a dedicated worker in the advertising industry, Bella never imagines that Joe, a pizza delivery man with a secret ambition and a carefree attitude, will completely upend her world.
Bella and Joe's connection feels natural, with some touching and occasionally even humorous moments, despite the story's lighthearted tone. If you enjoy straightforward romances with a dash of heart, this is a good book.

A cute little story, a very lighthearted and quick ish read. Really likeable characters. Thanks for early access to this book.

Steamy start turns sweet and cute.
Enjoyable quick read.
Joe had opened his own business with a mission to make the best pizza in town.
Bella works for a commercial company. She gets over looked by her coworkers.
Fun flirty cute story. 4/5
Could have used a tad bit more character development but I did enjoy the story.

I am sorry for the honest review that I’m about to write.
I have a lot to say about this story. First thing that I noticed as I got into the story, how repetitive it was between monologues and phone calls. I was about 20% of the story and the plot between the couples hasn't even progressed anything. Maybe it’s normal at some point, I did give it time but it got to me when the only thing I read were monologues and phone calls. Just imagine you’re watching a movie that only has phone calls and all the characters introduced through that call, that just felt weird. Thank god as the story progressed, the phone calls lessened but it was still there. And the story progress felt stagnant, short ups and downs, no gripping worth ending for each chapter. It felt flat most of the time and didn't excite me at all. I kept positive until the end but nothing could help the disappointment.
Most of the conversations and interactions felt too awkward to me. Made me wonder, am I the one lacking in communication skills? Or maybe the difference in the way we speak in our languages is different to each other? I felt the awkwardness of the conversation but the characters were chill about it, so maybe I’m the problem? And another thing to point out in one of the plots, I was so weird out, how can you call your best friend during a date when she literally just chatted that she was on the date at that time? Several times, persistently, and that’s rude to me even though it’s only a story. Dude, you can ask the details through text, or wait until she is done with her date first. Chill girl, it’s your friend's first date, give her privacy, will you?
The sense of time in the story made me confused. Especially the hospital scene. With the POV going back and forth between both main characters, it confused me which day and time are we in again? It felt like 2 or 3 days had passed but something illogical to me as the story progressed. Sometimes, there’s lacking information about the setting when or where is happening at the moment. Or maybe it’s just me not focusing enough on the story. Talking about the hospital scene, (spoiler alert) who in the right mind gives an old person that’s a father figure to you, and someone you love at that a drug? Maybe she’s high but why does he take it too????? Maybe he’s so depressed that he took the drug too because if she forced it onto him doesn't that make it an attempted murder??
And the biggest thing to point out about the story, is the inconsistency of the synopsis with the whole story. A pizza guy? I’m sure he’s a billionaire son in disguise and it’s an eatery which sold not only pizza as I understood from the story (I might be wrong). Technically he is not Bella’s client but the company's client. They only passed by each other by chance. And the transaction was short, nothing much of the plot having him as a client. More to him set as billionaire’s son. Imagine changing him with another occupation, the story still can progress the same. Nothing important for him being a pizza man/chef at this point. In short, the premise present in the synopsis felt irrelevant. I was hoping maybe they would bond at his restaurant at one point but surprisingly they went to another restaurant or ate at home. Then, I don't think Bella had conflicts mentioned in the synopsis. The only conflict between the main characters is just the clear stands of their relationship. Man just had to say “I love you and will you be my girlfriend?” That's it. It's not like Bella conflicted choosing either Joe or her job or whatever it can be. This story already has an interesting setting & premise (the reason I started reading in the first place) but it wasn’t used to its full potential and that’s just disappointing me more.
Overall, I think this story needs a couple more rounds of editing before it can be published. I hope this review helps in a way.

P/s; Bella's blonde. Might have to recheck the front cover.

This is a true slow burn between 2 unexpected characters. However the characters are relatable. Bella & Joe have a realistic romance and made me LOL for real several times. Would recommend!

I went into this as I do with many books going by the cover which is much different on
Netgalley. It is a sweet secret UK Billionaire romance.
I just couldn't find a realistic connection between the MC's. I felt there was a lack in the building of their relationship, too much was concentrated on their past and present life issues. I did like the plot but I just wanted more which is why I gave it a 3.5 and rounded up.

This is a lovely story, but I was unfortunately not able to connect with the female main character. I would enjoy reading more from this author.

A great read, the story of Bella and Joe. After a few chance e counters they meet properly, but nothing goes as planned when work and family causes issu
es. I liked how it was told from both points of view.

I really wasn't a fan of this book, I wanted to be but it fell flat for me! I loved the premise of the pizza guy and the ad agency girl but the chemistry/spark just didn't connect for me personally.
The momentum felt really slow and I wasn't crazy about the pacing either, it felt like a lot of set up and ultimately not the best payoff. Also some plot points were quickly skimmed over while others felt like they were more dragged out. For instance, when we find out Bella is a virgin that's a detail that is swept over so fast that I felt I didn't get to know Bella's thoughts or feelings on being a virgin at her age. I also found Bella and Joe's voices in their POVs awfully similar to each other which made it feel like I was getting to know one person rather than two distinctive characters.
Also this could be just me, but I found it really jarring that I didn't know where Calitain was haha. Like throughout I had no idea where this location was that kept being referred to and there was no adjacent geographical information to help fill in the gaps. Not knowing where this was set made it harder for me to attach to Bella and Joe and their story.
Overall, a cute romance in principle but just not it for me.

That was an amazing romcom romance, I adored it,
I loved the tension between the caracters.
Everything was read in one sitting. Hooked from the start.
