I had a good time reading this book. It was cute. I loved the dynamics between Connor and Fizzy - from their first glance at each other to their first meetings to their developing romantic relationship. I liked the DNADuo and the reality show.

Some reasons being:
⢠Fizzy being 37. She acts and talks much more like the typical CLo heroine who is usually in the 26-30 age range. Gave serious Clare from The Bachelorette vibes. Maybe that was the point idk.
⢠The premise was intriguing, another take on the buzzy reality TV dating show. I felt like it was misleading in its plot as, really, the actual contestants on the show arenât given much to do in the story. They have little to actually do with Fizzy. As the show itself is what brings Connor and Fizzy together, I expected there to be more tension and back-and-forth with the other men to up the ante with Connor.
⢠WHERE WAS THE BUILDUP, THE PROLONGED JEALOUSY, THE TENSIONNNNN?!?! It irked me that there never really was much struggle between Connor and the contestants, and that it honestly didnât take much for him and Fizzy to get together. It made the story less fulfilling and passionate to me. I wanted more from the contestants vs Connor. Instead itâs like the contestants are there for no reason. Like what was the point of having the show if the other men werenât gonna add much to the âwho will she chooseâ aspect.
It was cute and I liked the ending. Just found the chemistry and magic wasnât there.

I ADORE Fizzy. So much. Sheâs one of my favourite female characters so far in romance. Sheâs just so unapologetically herself. Itâs refreshing having late thirty year olds finding love đ
The whole âI want you but canât have youâ thing has always been a hit with me, but add in Connor having to watch Fizzy date numerous men in their work environment. Top tier đĽ
I adored their banter, they just seemed to click without having to change. I was DESPERATE for them to get together and it really didnât disappoint. Such a cute couple đĽ°
Not a fan of the random miscommunication bump, but I can forgive it. I also wouldâve liked a bit more from the dating show, because it was the perfect set up. Low key want a book featuring season 2 with Isaac please đ
Great summer holiday read âď¸
