Love is so much more than finding your perfect match and I think Sophie Cousens does such a good job of showcasing that in this novel. I put this book on hold on Libby ages ago and after pressing deliver later more times than I am willing to admit, I was finally able to check it out. IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT.
The chemistry between Laura and Ted was strong. Even when Ted was not 100% sure of his feelings for Laura, he never tried to string her along or be anything other than forthcoming about what he was feeling. I loved the ending. It was a Happy For Now ending that left me believing that Ted and Laura will stay together for the long haul even if things get difficult.

This book had a good storyline but it was dark. This would probably be great for high school and upper middle school. Some topics are a bit strong for lower middle school.
Content Warnings
Moderate: Death of parent, Abandonment
Minor: Sexual assault
slow-paced
This book was an interesting concept but it just dragged to me.

The Rom-Commers
I know I say this about EVERY book, but how will I move on from this. Taylor Swift had teardrops on her guitar and I had teardrops on my book.
Emma Wheeler is an aspiring screenwriter. She lives, breathes, and obsesses over rom-coms. She’s always looking for the best on screen kisses and searching for the most swoon worthy lines. But as the full-time caretaker for her ailing father, her screenwriting career is more dream than reality.
Charlie Yates is a successful screenwriter and he has the accolades to prove it. But Charlie can’t write a rom-com. In fact his most recent script, a rom-com, is so terrible it needs its own word.
Charlie doesn’t believe in love, not in movies and certainly not in real life. It’s up to Emma to make him believe that Hallmark didn’t make love up to sell cards.
Emma is so eldest daughter coded. From the way she is the sole caretaker of her dad, to the way she puts off all of her dreams, because she doesn’t believe the responsibility she has placed on her shoulders can be taken over from anyone else. But Charlie Yates never lets her carry that burden alone. Not even when he makes her wish she never met him.
