A very cute romance, with a lot of heart behind it and very *real* characters. Loved them and their chemistry together, and loved reading about a pair of authors bonding over writing.

2.5 stars, but I’ll round up to 3 because I’m on vacation and in a good mood. This book took for f*cking ever to develop a plot, some kind of conflict that the reader would actually care about. There were times I’d have to reread pages or paragraphs because I was so bored I forgot what I read and other times I’d forget what I read but just keep reading to get to the end. Once the plot did finally develop (almost 175 pages in), it did have my attention hence the 3 stars. Overall not impressed. I will try another EH book before I give her a total thumbs down.
