Reread this after reread TPYMOV. Though I enjoyed it, I wish the zingers and witty banter were between Daphne and Mikes instead of mainly from Daphne or Julia or Ashley.
Again, emotional baggage I was not super invested in.
Tropes: Fake relationship, roommates to lovers

Another Emily Henry book completely devoured and I’m left in a book haze. I absolutely loved this book— the trope was fun and the characters had some emotional baggage they worked out. I loved getting lost in this world!

My favorite Emily Henry book I’ve read so far!! I really enjoyed Miles’ character and how much of an open heart he had towards Daphne from the beginning. I think the only thing keeping it from being a 5 star read for me was that there were some bits that felt slightly too tropey, which probably has more to do with the fact I’ve read more romcoms lately than I typically do. Also I would have loved to see Peter’s life be completely ruined a bit more, that guy sucks.
LOVED THIS BOOK. 5+++ stars.
This is now in my top two Emily Henry books (along with Book Lovers).
Daphne thinks she has everything worked out. A job she loves (children’s librarian), the perfect fiancée and a beautiful home. Things all come crashing down when she is dumped right before the wedding and has no place to go.
She ends up moving in with Miles who happens to be the ex-boyfriend of the woman that Daphne’s husband left her for. Over time they slowly develop a friendship and in the ultimate act of revenge decide they should “fake date” to get back at their exes.
This book is so much more than just Miles and Daphne’s love story. It’s also about the journey they both go on and ultimately Daphne has to decide what is most important to her in life.
The ending was perfection.
