This one is cute and definitely included a few moments that made me giggle out loud and want to kick my feet. But it also dragged in a few spots which is why it's only 3.25 stars and not 4. 

Definitely worth picking up another Sarah Adams book!

emotional hopeful lighthearted mysterious reflective medium-paced

4.5

I didn’t intend to read this book, but I found it on vacation in the hotel library and couldn’t stop until I finished it.

A very wholesome love story between a Popstar and a Pie shop owner. Two worlds collide and that was, what I liked a lot. The mysterious side plot with the manager was even better then I thought.

 The banterrrrr!! This had me giggling and kicking my feet. She is a funny and easy to read writer and I loved the characters. Loved how the romance developed differently than other books I've read. The second half dragged a bit but I didn't mind cause I loved it so much.

Noah and Amelia have my heart.
I laughed and I cried so much during my reading.
It was a delicious rom-com and I have to read Practice Makes Perfect soon!
(Edit a few months after : I still think about the couple and I change the 4,5 rating to 5 stars)
