This is Emily Henry’s best book yet!
I adored the characters, the setting, the banter, everyone was just so perfect. And the best part: it’s enemies to lovers with NO miscommunication trope!
I was so excited when I saw the setting was a fictional little town near my real city of Asheville! (Petition for Emily Henry to make an appearance at one of our bookstores please 🙋🏼♀️).
This was a sweet story about finding yourself and letting go. It’s a romance but also features a strong relationship between sisters and the bonds that hold them together. Libby and Nora saw their childhood in completely different ways and it affected both of their future relationships. While Libby clung to the security of her husband and children, Nora cut herself off from close relationships and refused to put herself in vulnerable situations.
I love the way the story played out in the end. Emily Henry has a way of writing enemies to lovers with the most hilarious banter and I was cheering these characters on every step of the way.
My ONLY gripe was that Libby called Nora “sissy” and she sounded like a 3 year old every time she said it in the audiobook. Speaking of the audiobook, Julia Whelan narrates and I 100% recommend that format!
I will buy anything Emily Henry writes and I can’t wait to see what’s next from her.
