I love romantic books, and Happy ending.
But this was just too lovely, too sweet, too rosa for me. Perfekt people, in their tiny perfekt world.
Also the Plot is rather unrealistic, even for a romance.
And I still don't Unterstand why and how would leave Someone the loved Girl after many years behind. And also did She hadn't even known his Adresse after many years together?

It was lovely to return the the Ever After Agency to see their next case. I liked that not only did we get to see a new case but got updates on Poppy too. 
This is a second chance romance with a little bit of enimies to lovers vibes too. I loved that the set up with the case so different from book 1 and definitely gave an interesting spin. I enjoyed that part of the book took part in Paris and the additional side characters that were involved. I liked both of our love interests in this and the background story to their original relationship. There are some hilarious moments and good banter in this. Sandy Barker really did a good job at building the story up and it didn't feel too rushed. Overall I think this was a good romance and I look forward for future books in the series. 

Thank you to Netgalley, Boldwood books, and Sandy Barker for an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

After fashion design school and 4 years of loving each other, Leo leaves London and Elle behind without a single word. Elle spends the next 10 years trying to find the right man for her, but none measure up to Leo. Her meddling sister, Cassie, hires Ever After Agency to help reconnect the lovers right before Fashion Week. Leo and Elle are not privy to the match making though. From the minute we see Leo and Elle together, their connection and love is palpable even if Elle hasn’t quite agreed yet. Leo does some grade A groveling and makes swoon-worthy plays to win back Elle, which works in Cassie’s favor. I quite enjoyed this one and would recommend it.
