I want to live in this book. Emily Henry will now always be able to count on me to buy whatever she writes, 100%. No miscommunication trope with the male MC, TOP TIER banter, intelligent MC, and well written atmosphere.
Nora is a literary agent, and an amazing one. She is great at what she does. She doesn't have time to focus on much else, mostly because she considers herself a realist. We meet Charlie, the surlie editor who doesn't seem to jive with her about what turns into her career changing client and her best selling book. Cut to Nora's baby sister, pregnant with baby #3 and she need a vacation. She wants to visit the hometown setting of the book from the bestseller of Nora's top client. They need the time together.
I was NOT expecting it to be that deep. I laughed, and I damn near cried. I love that it was equally about Nora and her sister healing their miscommunications and relationship, and not just about the romantic side. I loved the focus on healing properly from the past. This book hit me right in the heart. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
