I’m so glad I finally read this. You have absolutely no idea. I genuinely loved everything about this book. I’ve been in a slump for the past few weeks, and I think this has cured my slump. I love Noah. So much. He deserves the world. This is one of the sweetest books I’ve read this year. Overall, I give it 4.75/5 stars, and I definitely recommend it.

A really cute rom com! I just wish we could have spent more time at the end wrapping things up. It felt a bit rushed.

Amelia and Noah couldn’t be cuter! I was kicking my feet sooo much while reading this one. Their flirty banter is so adorable. I love the way Amelia breaks Noah’s walls down and they way Noah immediately cares for her. Noah’s sisters are so fun and I can’t wait to read their stories!

Pies, flowers, and books…
If you love the Hannah Montana movie— that plot is this book!
A-list celebrity pop star, Amelia Ray Rose, accidentally on purpose finds herself in small town Rome, Kentucky. The entire town loves her and agrees to keep her secret that she is there for 3 weeks while her car is being repaired. She falls in love. Makes friends. And lives a wholesome, lowly life as a humble common girl who eats pancakes and plays Scrabble.
I actually really liked this book more than I thought I was going to! I have been a hater of romance novels lately because they have disappointed me with their boringness but I was surprisingly very invested in Noah and Amelia’s love story! I did not see the plot twist coming at the end, and I truly did not know how they were going to make their relationship work and how this story could have a happy ending with both characters sticking true to themselves.
I loved the chemistry between Amelia and Noah and felt that Adams did a great job of slowly building the bond between them instead of filling the plot with too much fluff and just throwing the “I love you!” bomb on us that so many romance authors do nowadays.
It’s losing a star from me because it was still a little too 3 cheese Mexican blend cheesy for me, but overall, I would recommend and this book may be what starts to change my mind about the friends to lovers trope…🤔

This book was everything I needed and more. I wanted to read something just cute, I didn’t need the spicy scenes, or the smut, I just wanted a cute love story and that’s exactly what this book was. The enemy to lovers plot??? I loved every second of it. Amelia aka rae rose was such a fun FMC I loved her banter with Noah. Noah was strong headed let me just say that. Finally having him open himself up to her was worth the wait. I loved how much he had to stay away from her because of the love he knew he had for her. I think their story was fun to read, the connection was clear, and their banter through out the book had me laughing out loud. I wish in certain moments they were able to be more accepting to each others attraction, I think that’s why it’s a 3 star read for me. It got a little repetitive about keeping away from other; and not giving into the feelings that are clearly there. but other then that I think this is was an overall really good read if you’re interested in something with little to no spicy (fade to black scenes)
