no but fr following Nora and Libby to Sunshine Falls to sort out their own sibling relationship (amongst other things), coincidentally finding Nora's editorial rival
I do however wish the last chapter (not epilogue) was expanded on with one more inbetween chapter just for the sake of the pacing.

Another lovely escapist novel by Emily Henry. I’ll never not read her stories. The laughs, the tears, the witty and flirty banter between characters. It is everything I want and need from novels.

I liked this book for a lot of the reasons I like all of Emily Henry's books: there's travel; the sub-plot revolves deals with grief in an authentic way that resonates a lot with me; the protagonists have sizzling chemistry. However, I do wonder how long it will take for Henry to write some people of color into her books. Like, is she nervous about writing outside her own experience? Can she not get some beta readers? These are my more generous interpretations of why there are no people of color in the book; I hope she remedies this issue in the next book. Also, for me personally, sickeningly-sweet or close sister relationships feel inauthentic and I thus find them rather off-putting (especially Libby called Nora "Sissy" - gag), but maybe others are totally here for this.
