it was okay. there are a lot of important moments that happen between the character off screen but only mentioned briefly, which was frustrating.

Lanie is the editor for elusive romance author Noa Calloway. No one has seen this author, and she never shows up for any book signings. Everything is done via email. So when Lanie is invited to work with and meet Noa, she's ecstatic. Noa’s books inspire Lanie like no other, but you know what they say…never meet your idols.
Really enjoyed this one!

authormirandajoy's review against another edition
This was such a sweet love story. Lanie is an editor for the elusive Noa Calloway—a famous romance author. They’ve emailed for 7 years, building a beautiful friendship… so imagine Lanie’s surprise when she discovers her favorite author/client and close friend is a he. A deliciously sexy, kind HE.
As Lanie tries to inspire him to complete his next book (which is already way past its deadline) she can’t help herself from falling. But does he feel the same?
I absolutely loved the uniqueness of this story and Lanie and Noah felt so natural together.

This is my first romance book I’ve read and reviewed and I tried to keep myself together as I read the last two chapters (and Chapter One of course!). This book is cheesy, and it’s in no way completely realistic. There’s flaws, like Lanie’s ability to call from Italy without needing a new card overseas. That was a fun ordeal I’ve gone through. But do we really read romance for the realism? I read this because I needed it. I needed something cheesy and cute and heartwarming. Something to give me a little bit of squealing giddiness.
This book did that! Seeing Lanie and Noa build their relationship from hatred, but not true hatred, only added to that giddiness because although I knew what was around the corner, sometimes you need that. It’s a safe book. A comfort kind of book. When she went to Italy I knew who would show up. Despite knowing, I was dying for it to happen anyway. When this comes out next year, I really hope those on the fence of this book end up reading it. Especially if you need something easy, fun, and absolutely comforting!
Thank you NetGalley for letting me review this!

this was one of the sweetest romance books i’ve read in a long time. i read it in two sittings.
the only thing i would change is less banter between the main character and her friends, and more of her and Noah. i didn’t want their story to end!
