Mix Tape by Jane Sanderson
4.0

I really enjoyed this, but have some misgivings about it
Spoilerbeing a love story between two people who are married/committed to other people. Granted it tries to get around that by making Ali's husband Michael a bit of a dick who she was never suited to, but Rob's partner Katelin doesn't deserve it. Is her unhappiness worth Rob and Ali's happiness, even if she isn't a main character? Idk, I just don't find it easy to get behind a story that to some extent is idealising cheating, and I doubt much good usually comes of people looking up/rekindling contact with their long ago exes, unless both are single
