Favourite Quote: “when you’re with the right person, being in love never feels like the bottom is going to fall out”

Tropes: forced proximity, miscommunication, roommates, second chance, love at first sight

I really loved this book! It was a mix of sweet and cute but it did have that funny best friend banter too! It was so enjoyable much like the first book, I did struggle to pick up who was who at points because I read book one ages ago…

Did I mention how much I love that the fmc is a reader?! I loveeee the way she was throwing tropes out there and searching for her second chance romance, I am not a fan of second chance romance so very happy it turned into a roommates, forced proximity. 

I loveeeeedddd the Epilogue in this book that is I would call a perfect perfect proposal !! I mean if I was giving ideas I would throw this book at my partner and say page for page this .. thisssss is what I like hahahahah

So this was one hell of a slow burn myyyy gaaawwwddddddd!! And a roommates situation?! So good I loved Angie! I found in parts it went so a fast! But others so slow!! 

I found the final third act break up a bit different it wasn’t very full on but it had elements that really could have gone further I would say it was more miss communication than a third act break up. And it was more of a soft one of those too, the face the turned around and said he fell at first sight.. butttt I loved all the Disney princesses and family members.

Will there be a book on the bestie Mel or??? We shall seeeee!! I would definitely read more of this authors books love love loved all the bookish references too.

3 ⭐ means I enjoyed this book. I had fun reading it. Would recommend if you like the tropes or author. For me it didn't hit the spot at the time.
