Back After This is the story of Cecily Foster, a podcaster who agrees to produce a new series called Twenty Dates, with the help of expert matchmaker Eliza Cassidy. Cecily’s search for Mr. Right makes a big splash once the first episode debuts - but all anyone can talk about is how charming her waiter was! 

This story was so sweet and lighthearted! I loved how Cecily and  Will kept running into each other at the oddest possible times. As a lover of podcasts, I also adored all the audio jargon and overall insight into the process of making podcasts. This could’ve been just a tiny bit steamier, but I still really enjoyed the story, and would recommend it to fans of Emily Henry and Abby Jimenez. 4.5 stars!
