This was such an adorable romance novel. The cover is really cute. I enjoyed every second of it reading the FMC try to find the MMC. I suspected pretty early on what was going on, but I still loved how the plot rolled out. 

The characters were really well flushed out. I really enjoyed the side characters and what they added to the plot. 

The pacing was steady. I think the dual POV worked out great for this story.

Banter and dialogue was really good. I really enjoyed the almost enemies to friends to lovers pipeline that this book followed. The dark humor involved was right up my alley and made me laugh out loud. 

Thank you NetGalley and Harper Collins UK, One More Chapter for an eARC of this book. All opinions are my own
