A great connection. An impulsive act. A really fun meet cute romance with terrific chemistry, witty conversations, and some steamy fun. The story does have some angst, but it's pretty low, making this engaging romance a great bit of escapism, especially with the busy holidays coming up. Both Miles and Nora are likable characters that you can't help but want good things for, and if those good things happen to involve them being a couple, so much the better. I will say that it is totally not fair of Serena Bell to mention Sweet Caroline because - well, it's Sweet Caroline, and now I've been singing it in my head for the past two days! That aside, or maybe even that included, After Midnight is a thoroughly charming romance that left me with a smile.

That awkward phone conversation had me in stitches. So much more realistic than those perfectly worded ones you usually read. I feel like I got a bit lost here and there as the characters would ramble off in their own thoughts during most things which is completely realistic but utterly confusing at times. All round sweet. Makes me want to go out on New Years.

I found it a little boring (thinking about it that’s probably partly because it’s insta-lust and they don’t really get to know one another) and I really didn’t like that the friend gave her the hero’s address and then she shows up at his door.
