I loved that this is not typical romance yet still has a happy ending. Georgina is one of the strongest female characters I have ever read about and I loved her. Plus Lucas’ declaration of love is EVERYTHING!

If the public declarations of love in romantic comedies make you cringe, then this is the book for you! I honestly think the cartoonish cover does a disservice to the weighty subjects this book explores (grief, sexual assault, abusive romantic relationships). But then again the main character in this story consistently struggles to be taken seriously despite her fluffy outward appearance (her trademark is a pink faux fur coat). The writing is so incredibly charming and the audiobook really took the reading experience to the next level. This was my first Mhairi McFarlane book and it certainly won’t be my last. I already have another queued up!
