Rom-Com isn't my normal genre, so I was surprised how much I enjoyed this sweet story! A slow burn flirty romance. Holly Curtis lands the story of a lifetime in NYC. When she discovers she'll be working with her long-time crush, they explore a second chance at love. But it quickly becomes obvious that he isn't at all like she remembered. And then there is her coworker who makes her laugh and clearly has a thing for her. Who will she choose? Full of humorous moments and laugh out loud lines, the tender moments and likeable characters made this story one to remember.

Enjoyable

This book was so warm and contained popular North and South areas which just drew you in by familiarity. Not many books keep u turning the pages most of the night, the characters are fully fleshed out. I recommend it to all ages
