In this book, we meet Gracie who is a 33-year-old woman with dreams of pursuing an art career. Gracie decides to forgo her dreams to run her deceased father's champagne shop. While trying to figure out the business, Gracie joins a blind dating app looking for companionship. On the app, she meets a man who she affectionately refers to as "sir". Gracie and the mystery sir engage in flirtatious banter daily. The mystery sir refers to Gracie as my dear lady Unbeknownst to both of them Gracie and sir whose actual name is Sebastian have online crushes on each other but offline they are arch enemies. Overall, this book was a cute, fluffy read. While this was cute I found both main characters' personalities to be a bit vanilla. I probably should not have read this being that I didn't like You've Got Mail and this is a modernized version of that. It is what it is. I read another book by this author which was titled You, Again. That book was better than this one. This book is painfully slow.

The blurb made this plot sound better than it was when reading it.

Charming
This book was incredible charming. Although it’s pretty obvious to the reader what’s going on between the characters it’s adorable to see them find out for themselves. Definitely a good read

It was a very cute read but there wasn't enough tension for me. I skimmed a lot in the end just to finally get to the Happy End.

It was a light and enjoyable read.
The author kept discussing how "real New Yorkers" act and stuff like that, random out of the blue statements to convince us that the characters were actual people and lived in New Yorkers.
Also I disliked the landlord redemption arc, like he's actually a good guy.
