Someone Just Like You by Meredith Schorr

4.0

Enemies-to-lovers is one of my favourite romance tropes and this one did not disappoint. The characters are well-developed and likeable and the story is charming.

Molly Blum and Jude Stark are each the youngest of the three children in their families. At one time they were very close. Then, the two began a relationship filled with arguments and pranks despite the friendship between their parents.

The Blums and Starks are approaching anniversary milestones, and their children decide to combine these events by throwing them a party. Molly and Jude are assigned to work together to find the venue. Their childhood pranks continue and with the party fast approaching, their ability to choose a venue in time is fading.

Eventually, the two finally come together enough to start making a decision. What began as hostility towards one another becomes physical attraction. It is pointed out to them that they’ve been dating a series of doppelgangers for each other. Will the two finally let down their guards and let their relationship mature?

While the story is somewhat predictable, I enjoyed it nevertheless. There are some funny moments and some personal growth with these two characters. I recommend this book to those readers who enjoy romance.

I received an ARC of this book from the publisher, but the thoughts and opinions expressed here are my own.
