Witty, great characters, and a beautiful story of moving past an unhealthy relationship. This book is more women's fiction than romcom, in my opinion, but the romance is there as well as the fun. As someone who escaped a verbally and emotionally abusive relationship in my early 20s, this was as much about affirmation as it was entertaining to read. Pick this book up and give it a go! I loved Harriet, Cal, Sam, and Lorna as characters. Great character development,they were genuine and fun. McFarlane tackles a tough topic using wit and a happily ever after.
