rooney is an artist thatโ€™s trying to catch a big break. jack works for nasa. while on a business trip to new york, he meets rooney & they have a magical night. rooney gets jackโ€™s number so they can continue to keep in touch, but she has a digit wrong & canโ€™t contact jack when she tries. years later rooney & jack meet again by chance, but itโ€™s complicated, because theyโ€™re meeting for work

โ€”

this book was so cute! i loved the chemistry between rooney & jack. the way they met in new york was so cute & fun. i love that rooney showed him around to some of her favorite places for the night. iโ€™m glad they eventually found their way back to each other and were able to work it out, despite it being complicated at first

rooney really struggled with the fact that her mom delivered her in the museum & the fact that it went viral. we did out the specific reason that sheโ€™s so upset about the video & it makes so much sense. i love that rooney dealt with her feelings throughout the book & worked to overcome them, realizing that she nor her mother did anything wrong to cause what happened to happen

this was my favorite book of january. i have lunar love & yin yang love song on my tbr also. iโ€™m excited to read them eventually!
