This is the most non traditional rom com ever. Was it messy yes. Was it steamy…slow burn yes. Do you love the characters yes. Is it also a cautionary tale about giving your heart to mean men. Also yes. When I tell you this book breaks your heart to mend it back together. It does that. Also Roxy was it…fuck her total how do they say it across the pond. Slag. I knew when Brooke rated it 5 stars it would not disappoint.

I thought I had picked up a light, happy go lucky rom com and boy was I wrong! An extraordinary novel with highs, lows and everything in between for all of the characters. It is SO messy. I truly didn’t know how the story would end until the very last page. This does center around some heavy topics - loss of parents, psychological/emotional abuse. But it’s truly a beautiful story about fierce loyalty, friendship, and love.

Another 5⭐️ read by Mhairi McFarlane. Absolutely loved this one and of course I cried, as usual. Can’t get enough of everything she writes—the perfect blend of clever and heart-wrenchingly relatable. Cal and Harriet forever.
