I feel like I say this every time an Emily Henry book drops, but I truly mean it when I say this is by far my all time favorite EH book out of all 5 of her adult romances. It had humor, just the right amount of smut, and such a beautiful found family all set in a small town in Michigan.

As always, her banter is unmatched and I always fall in love with her MMCs - Miles is no exception here, but he is the standard. I adored his sister, loved Daphne's new friends she makes at the library and all over town. Fake dating is not normally something I'm into in romance books but I was feeling so angry for both Daphne and Miles that the evil part of my brain loved watching their exes fall apart and even encouraged it. 

Dammit now I have to wait for her next one...this always happens. Ugh!
