I finished this book so quickly I literally feel like I absorbed it, it was so good! Such a cute small town romance which I am a sucker for and although it’s very faced paced we also get some great character developments and hints at some future stories!! So excited to read more of this author!

struggled with the random bouts of "he struggled to not punch Character XYZ in the face" and hazel slapping him on the side of the head. There was also a strange comment about people with piercings early on that I didnt appreciate. overall I enjoyed the book a lot but it was hard to get into and i was told the smut was "filthy" and i didnt even blush reading it. the side characters and main character jeanie are very loveable and i look forward to the next one, hopefully it doesnt also include the things i disliked from this one. it truly had the vibe of a small town romance, and had a few sweet moments, it just included some very normalised little things that werent relevant to anything and that i didnt like.

Very atmospheric very autumnal I loved it. I finally picked up this book after seeing it for weeks on tiktok and it did not disappoint! If you’re after a cheesy, lighthearted romcom this is the one for you! Perfect for those of us who romanticise every season. One thing I will say is there is LOTS of sexual content so if that’s not something you like I would be careful. The characters are lovely if a little stereotypical gender wise and you really root for them. A cozy autumn read I’m glad I picked up!
