Woah. Okay. This book was amazing. It was so fascinating to read about Alison and Adam. We follow Alison who agrees to play the grieving girlfriend of her ex who died suddenly and no one knew that he had broken up with her weeks prior. She then is forced to spend time with her ex's best friend. Hear me out, I know it's complicated but it plays out very well. This book deals with really deep topics. We deal with overall grief as well cancer more specifically BRCA breast cancer gene. We do have talks about double mastectomy (throughout the book) so if you are sensitive to those topics maybe skip this one. This book was so beautifully written. It reminded me a whole lot of Katherine Center books embracing romantic comedic banter and swoony moments but also dealing with heavy topics. This is not a sad book but embracing life to the fullest finding yourself and of course falling in love :) The icing on the cake, there was just a sprinkle of language. *chef's kiss
I truly loved Adam. What an amazing MMC. He made the book so fun and his grumpy nature complimented Alison’s sunshine. Ahhh this is probably one of my favorite romance couples. This book is fade to black. Also can I say, Alison had one amazing friend group which I am hoping get their own happily ever afters :)
The fact that I read this in two sittings and could not put it down. This book is single POV which was a nice

Wow! I loved everything about this one. It was sweet, funny, and emotional with a great cast of characters and hits on the themes of loss and grief. Adam and Alison were just like Kristoff and Ana in my head. The writing felt fresh and I was immediately drawn in. LOVE the chapter titles, and I feel like more books need them!
