The premise was fine and the conflict/relationship was more or less believable. The main character’s attitude of not being good enough while doing the most was grating by the end. And the “when you know you know” mentality felt overdone by the end as well, with every couple being so incredibly in love that they just knew at first glance they’d found the one. Not a bad book but not gonna reread. 

Cute and I loved how it touched on how grief can change not only yourself but your loved ones around you.

It was like crazy rich Asians except they’re white and it was way worse. The whole thing was anticlimactic but at least it made the drive go by quickly.

Sophie Sullivan is an author who I turn to when I need to break out of a slump and want a fun, sweet romance. 

Can’t Help Falling in Love is a Hallmark movie in book form. If you want a quick read, a swoon-worthy cinnamon roll hero, a close mother/daughter relationship, and a feel good story set in the Autumn season, this book will be satisfying. 

Thank you to St. Martin’s Griffin and Netgalley for the e-ARC in exchange for my honest review. 

I lovedddd this sweet fall read. While I does really address some hard topics. It’s real & still made me feel happy while reading. The author did such a great job with this. Highly recommend if you are looking for a good fall read. 🥰
