Cute but also had much more graphic sex than I would have guessed. Also her editor should have swapped out half the "chortle"s in the book. It felt like each character was chortling every few minutes.

I honestly read this book with expectation of a full blown romance, and I am pleasantly surprised and satisfied with what I got! This is the first book I've read from Emily Henry and I do believe that this is a pretty good book to start with.

First of all, I did not expect to be heavy emotional scenes from the characters, much more for the plot twist because... what in the world?! I thought we were just competing for a book and now there are hidden family tree connections that got revealed? Not that I'm complaining for I actually liked that there were more than just romance, made me cry a bit for margaret and cosmo
