I am glad I finally picked up this book. TBH I’ve been avoiding it like the plague because of all the hype. 
That being said, I absolutely loved this. I find both of the main characters in this book very likable. Amelia is happy but not syrupy sweet. She’s a pop star but is actually a believable down-to earth person. Noah is slightly gruff but really a cinnamon roll. The small town southern setting was absolutely lovely. 

Even though When in Rome is a closed door romance, the chemistry just flipping works. Closed door does not mean we have to make room for Jesus, thank you very much. 😆Sarah Adams understands this and does the writing so very well. 
Dare I say it? I was more invested and interested than some steamy romances I’ve read. 

This was so easy to read and oddly relatable. I can’t wait for the next book following Annie. I hope every Walker sibling gets a book in this series!
