I loved Only You! This book is a great mix of funny moments and emotional connection. Emme is a sweetheart and Nate is a tough no feelings guy with a marshmallow center. I enjoyed seeing their friendship progress into a relationship. I loved how Emme supported Nate and helped him grow and open up. It was fun getting to see Mia and Lucas and Coco and Nick from the Frenched series again too. I would definitely recommend this book!

This was a pretty cute opposites attract / instant family romance. I really liked the premise of a wedding planner and divorce attorney getting together. I'm not really a big fan of surprise babies in romance books and I was expecting the baby to come in close toward the end as sort of this big change up to the status quo. However, the baby came into the story pretty much right at the beginning so there was a lot of bonding over baby stuff which I couldn't really connect with but that is 100% a personal thing. I really liked Emme and Nate together and I liked how we got to see them as friends before they became romantically entangled. I also enjoyed Emme's relationships with her sisters and her business partner but I wish Nate had a friend or someone outside of the situation that we could have seen him with. This book also was a little on the side of love fixes everything, which I don't really love. Nate has some really deep emotional blocks and trauma from his childhood that I felt caused realistic issues in the relationship but then he seemingly moves on really quickly and gets over his fear of commitment as soon as he decides he doesn't want to lose Emme.

I really loved this story, even if I don’t often like the surprise baby trope. This time, it was really well written, and Nate and Emme were great together! I always like reading both sides of the story, it makes it all feel more complete!
I love James Bond, and it was great to have them bond (haha get it) over the movies! I was so happy that Emme was defending Skyfall and Daniel Craig’s 007, and I wanted to slap Nate for his opinions, so I knew I was in for a treat!
