I was very much anticipating this book since I loved Evvie Drakes Starts Over. I was excited to pick up Linda Holmes� newest release.
Unfortunately this one didn’t live up to my expectations. I was expecting a female character going through a hard time with a side of romance. That’s not what this is. This is very much a rom-com. Cecily was more feeling stuck than anything, but I had a hard time with decisions she was making. I felt like she didn’t make good decisions or she let other people decide for her and then she got upset about it. This also relied very heavily on convenience to help move the story along. It got to a point where I rolled my eyes and I was predicting what was going to happen. And I was correct. The chapter headers basically spoiled what was about to happen as well. I felt the chapters didn’t need titles.
Overall, I ended up not enjoying this one. I’m sad about it because I’ve loved her writing in the past.
Huge thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for a free early copy to read and review!
