This is a delightful romcom that has the same energy as 90s romcoms. Inspired by Sleepless in Seattle, it starts with a call to a romance radio show. The conversation ends up going viral and Lucie is persuaded into joining the radio program with Heartstrings host, Aiden, who is supposed to help her find the magic and romance she is looking for.

If you want to giggle and kick your feet, this is for you. If you want a good romcom, this is for you. If you want to like every single character, this is for you. I’ve been feeling a bit burned out on spice lately, but what was in this book was well written.

Overall, quite enjoyable and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a fun romance.
