Forget Me Not by Julie Soto
5.0
This book was PERFECT! It had everything I was looking for in a romance book: dual POV, enemies to lovers, slow burn, grumpy, the hurt/comfort trope, he falls first! Plus, I don't usually go for second chance romances BUT this one had a dual timeline so we got to watch our two main characters fall in love twice!
Forget Me Not follows two exes: Ama, a wedding planner who doesn't believe in marriage, and Elliot, a hopelessly romantic florist. When Ama and Elliot are given the opportunity to work on a huge wedding, with the promise of lots of exposure for both their businesses, they are forced to put their differences aside for the sake of their careers. But working together brings up lots of old feelings and memories that they would both rather leave in the past.
As I mentioned before, Forget Me Not has a dual timeline, with Ama's POV being used to tell us what's happening in the present and Elliot's POV recapping what went wrong in the past. The changing between both timelines kept me engaged for the entire book, and I felt that the author picked the perfect times to reveal things from the past in order to explain the repercussions in the present. I found it really easy to root for both Elliot and Ama, which meant I felt real pain when things went wrong for them. But I was also able to celebrate with them so easily when things went right.
This book was honestly an absolute pleasure to read and I loved every second of it! I would highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys contemporary romance and I am anxiously awaiting whatever Julie Soto comes out with next!
I recieved a digital ARC of this book from NetGalley and the publishers in return for an honest review. All of the opinions above are my own.
