I was provided an advanced reading copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
If you're into second chance romance novels then this one is pretty great. June is a struggling actress in Los Angeles when she gets a mysterious email, turns out she co-owns a multi-million dollar brownstone with her former roomate back in New York City. The chapters jump back and forth through time (both progressing linearly, no sideways jumps and no multiverse) as we learn about our romantic leads. The supporting characters have depth without being too involved though check the tags, depending on how you feel about your family members.
I devoured this book in less than a day and would absolutely read anything else this author publishes! Here are my notes from reading, in alphabetical order to prevent spoilers:
before dinner?!, boner, cackled, chills, COWARD, CROSS THE THRESHOLD, dead I have ascended, fuck yes it does, good pacing and plausibility, jumping around in time is tough, but this is compelling, least favorite trope, mmmmm forced proximity, my heart the pacing is phenom, oblivious pining, omg, ouch bby why does this feel so real, relatable female main character, scandalous ankle touching, sobbing quietly to myself, spectacular banter, sweet home alabama vibes, swoon, ughhhhhh, WHAT
Really hope you enjoy this book as much as I did!
