My favorite Christina Lauren book.  Such a likeable FMC and I was so rooting for her! Connor is a perfect book boyfriend.

A slow start for me, but I pushed through and there was enough character growth that I wanted to see it to the end. It doesn't poke fun at the romance genre as much as I had hoped, and it still has a few of my pet peeves for romance novels in it.

Also made for me?

She’s a writer, he’s a producer. He needs a reality tv show.

Reality show romance meets slow-burn, behind-the-scenes longing
• Reverse roles: the woman is the one unsure about love and commitment, while the man is the steady, emotionally in-touch partner
• Fizzy is an absolute delight—funny, raunchy, self-aware, and emotionally complex
• Connor is sweet, respectful, and slowly unravels in the best way


Notable Themes
• The tension between real love and performative romance
• Finding love when you thought you missed your shot
• Being seen and loved for who you really are—even the messy, unsure parts


The finale confession
Fizzy is in the middle of her own “grand gesture” moment. But in typical Fizzy style, it’s big, unfiltered, and ends with both of them shedding the act and choosing each other. No cameras. No edits. Just truth.

he interrupts the show’s finale to confess his love for Fizzy on camera, leading to a genuine and unscripted moment between them.

Their connection is further solidified when they discover they have a high compatibility score on the DNA-based matchmaking app featured in the story, humorously referred to as a “Titanium level” match
