This is a cute and quirky romance with two unique and interesting main characters. The whole premise is quite original while still involving tried and true romance tropes. It’s a fun read. It did take me a bit to feel like I had a real handle on what was happening, but once I got there it was very engaging. Drew, still grieving three years after the death of his girlfriend, had a longtime fear of elevators, but when he ended up in a situation where he felt he had to ride one, a cryptic message from a disembodied voice inside led him to keep returning and a friendship, and then more, developed. Crippled by social anxiety and bad past relationships, Hannah was using covert technology in the elevator to catch their morally questionable CEO in the act. What she didn’t expect was how the anonymity would facilitate a romantic relationship. The romance was slow-burn. Very in keeping with where the characters were coming from. It was sweet how it unfolded gradually and how patient Drew was. The characters were layered and complex. The secondary characters provided a lot of extra entertainment and assistance. The CEO storyline added some extra intrigue to the story and upped the stakes. I enjoyed the small secondary romance in the story too. This is a fade-to-black romance with moderate/strong innuendo. There is strong harsh language throughout, especially from the female main character.

Chrissie Harrison’s book lightened my spirit's entirely. It's one of those books that if you are feeling a little down or you just need some breathing space and something to make you laugh. It'd definitely be this novel. I actually adored how every inch of this book made me smile. It's uplifting and hilarious. Chrissie managed to blend humour and emotional depth together, a story which shows how personal fears, deep grief and love can all co-exist in one book of a journey in healing and self acceptance. While the comedy side of things keep the book light and engaging. The author doesn't shy away from incorporating heavier themes, making this an immersive read.
There was a very unique plot which I found quite interesting and pulled me to this novel in the first place. The protagonist grapples with a phobia of lifts, which served as both a source of comedy and also a deep personal struggle. Rather than treating it as a mere quirk, it also covers the exposure therapy for Drew because he was forced to go inside, which...no spoilers, ends up being the best thing that happened to him. The fear is explored really well making it an integral part of the characters development. The way Harrison weaved this into this story ensures the readers not only laugh at the misadventures but also empathise with their anxieties. Another great bit of the novel was the chapter names. E.g. (Floor 1, Floor 2, Floor 3). I knew it was going to be a great read from the opening sentence. "Drew arrived at his office without killing anyone." The banter between even the secondary characters was brilliant, they could have all had a spin-off novel of their own.
Floored doesn't hesitate to address weightier themes such as grief and the loss of a spouse. The author approaches these topics with sensitivity and the natural growth in coping with these feelings, additionally allowing the emotional weight of the characters experiences to resonate. When I look for books to review I always look for characters that are realistic and deeply relatable. This book gives you exactly that, both Hannah and Drew both feel authentic with their flaws and struggles making them all the more human. Even in moments of tension or sadness, the book never loses its sense of hope and playfulness. Amy, (Hannah's best friend) was one of my favourites, their friendship felt real and it was wholesome.
For readers who love romantic comedies with substance, Floored is a must-read. It proves that a book can be both hilariously entertaining and deeply moving, without one aspect overshadowing the other. My final verdict is, that it's a charming, heartfelt, and a laugh out loud rom-com. Chrissie Harrison has crafted a story that is a relatable as it is delightful, making Floored a standout in the genre.
