If you like rom-com type books, then this is the book for you! I liked how the author did each chapter as the characters pov. I will say that this is a lengthy read but the ending was worth it!!

This book was very conceptually interesting! I really enjoyed the interweaving plots and the corporate world of dating apps was fascinating. The two lead characters each had great backstories and were complex in their own right. 
I’m typically not super into dual-POV books, but I appreciated the two perspectives this time! I liked the characters, but I didn’t love them, which is a reason for my rating. I was certainly rooting for them to get together. 
I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a unique contemporary romance!

I always find it interesting when a book can successfully combine romance and steamy sex scenes with serious topics like (in this case) an abusive ex and concussions in the NFL. This one succeeded.

This was definitely a cute and fun pick me up after reading a very tense book prior. 
Focusing on modern romance through dating apps with poc characters and a stranger/enemies to lovers & second chance romance. With a little bit of spice! (; 
I enjoyed seeing the romance build and I enjoyed seeing situations that call to having difficulties wanting a successful career versus wanting to commit and focus on someone romantically. While also seeing the impact previous relationships and situations has caused on people and how it affects their mindset entering new relationships. 
I definitely laughed at things Rhi and Lakshmi discussed and loved the way Samson cared deeply for family and loved ones. It was wholesome.
So, I would pick this book up if you want a pick me up book thats fun, chemically intense, and hopeful.
