These characters have my heart πŸ’— Linda Holmes knows how to write realistic situations that show how lovable, sometimes quirky, and witty humans navigate this thing called life. 

Cecily is a podcast producer who takes pride being part of a team. Despite having her own ambitions to further her career, she feels the overwhelming need to do things that will benefit more people than just herself. When her boss dangles the opportunity to make her own pilot, she does what is asked of her even though that requires her to uncomfortably put herself and her dating life on display for all to hear.

The meet cutes, charm, and witty banter of Back After This were heartwarming and relatable. It’s the perfect lighthearted read that leaves you wanting more wholesome stories like this. 

Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing group for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
