“I think friendship is at the base of the best love stories.”
I read this book for the first time more than a year ago as an ARC received from Letizia.
Now the book will be published by Gallery Books and I was lucky enough to receive an ARC of this version.
Ian and Amelie meet at a wedding but she is “engaged” so they become good friends.
Amelie has great character development, becoming more confident and standing up for herself after being mistreated.
Ian, as described by Amelie, is “more than hot. He’s sensitive, smart, talented, hilarious”. Plus he has such a dirty mouth. I fell in love with him all over again and I wish he was real.
This book made me laugh, cry and laugh while crying.
There are so many things I liked about it:
- there is a dual timeline - we gradually find out parts of what happended in the last year
- this is a strangers to friends to rivals to lovers
- slow burn, but worth it
- he falls first
- more than a rom-com
- the text exchanges between them are hilarious (cheese lines and unpopular opinions)
- the ending and connection to the first book (Desserts for Stresses People)
I recomand this book and look forward to the next ones in the series!
Thank you again Gallery Books and Netgalley for the ARC. Opinions expressed in this review are my own.
