This was just as good as any Emily Henry for me-which is a good thing.  This probably comes in at #2 or #3 out of all her books.  The story begins with Daphne being dumped by her fiancé right before their wedding-for none other than his best friend, Petra.  This leads her to move in with Petra's ex, since they are both looking for roommates.  She soon learns a few things:  Miles is not who he appears to be, and Daphne isn't who she thought she was, either, because she had adapted herself to fit into her fiancé's world.  As usual, Emily Henry writes a sweet romance but also an emotional journey.  This one leans a little less on the romance than People We Meet on Vacation or Beach Read, and focuses a little more heavily on the other emotional aspects.
