It Had to Be Him by Adib Khorram
4.5

I absolutely loved this one!
 
The romance is really cute - two former classmates find themselves randomly running into each other in Italy 20 years after graduation, and their reconciliation quickly turns romantic. Within the romance we have a single dad, both bi and gay rep, first sexual experiences, and so much more. I immediately connected with both characters, and couldn’t help myself from cheering them on!
 
Beyond the romance, the setting was immaculate. We go all over northern Italy, see lots of delicious food and wine, and explore so many picturesque places. The author did such a great job describing everything, I’m influenced to book my next trip!
 
Give this one a read - perfect mood-setter before a trip to Europe, or a great M/M romance for anytime. 
 
I was provided a complimentary ARC from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for my honest review.
