I really enjoyed this!
I thought the ending was very cringe-worthy however, the rest of the story was great!

This story follows Sadie who gets involved with Sebastian a single father and owner of a NYC restaurant. He is trying to deal with his daughter, run a business and is grieving the loss of his wife.
Sadie at times is quite forward and acts on her attraction to Sebastian.
Her relationship with Bridie - Sebastian’s daughter is a well written authentic relationship and I loved this part of the story and Marmaduke the dog adds fun to the storyline.
There is a twist later on in the book which added an extra layer to this romance.
A good read and I listened to it on audiobook and the narrators were okay.

Really cute book and interesting meet cute. I appreciate how these authors represent healthy communication in a relationship. There’s no miscommunication trope anywhere to be seen and I love that. Both characters expressed their insecurities and worries really well.

I absolutely loved this book. The lack of a black moment in this book and the relationship just made me so happy. I kept thinking ' see you can write a book without an unnecessary black moment to make it interesting'
Here we follow Sadie who works for a magazine and writes a column on dating and lifestyle. One day in summer she receives a 'letter to Santa' which she usually runs during Christmas for the magazine. This letter is from a child named Birdie Maxwell. After numerous letters and gifts, Sadie begins to feel a bond between her and Birdie. Most especially her hot dad. Sadie finds out that Birdie is living with her widowed father.
One spontaneous accident leads to Sadie pretending to be the German dog trainer. *I will speed through the rest because I do not want to spoil it* Sebastian Maxwell finds out that Sadie is a fake and he kicks her out. However, this is just the beginning of a wonderful relationship and secrets.
