What I loved:
- This was a true romantic comedy (emphasis on the comedy).
- Hibbert is a master of writing chemistry and spice. š¶
- The protagonistās struggle with fibromyalgia is written in a really authentic way, and I appreciated that the character was surrounded by supportive loved ones.
What didn't quite work for me:
- The pacing felt a little off. I felt like the enemies-to-lovers transition happened really quickly, and I would have loved to see their relationship evolve in a slower and more complex way.
- I also just wanted to see Chloe's other relationships developed out a bit more. It was clear that her sisters were an integral part of her life, but I felt like those relationships weren't given quite as much attention as they could have been.
Overall, I enjoyed this one & would happily read more of Talia Hibbert's books!
