I liked how fleshed out the characters were, I liked how laugh out loud funny it was, I liked the second chance romance aspect, I liked the pumpkin patch scene, and although it makes my heart hurt (and I hope it gets resolved later on if this turns into a series) I like the realistic aspect of what happened with Sofi. I liked the heart and culture and FOOD behind this book. Really enjoyable read!

It was good especially for a debut novel. I liked the plot of this a lot. I loved how much diversity and culture was in this book from both sides. Liam and Kamilah's relationship was interesting to see how they had went from childhood friends to really not speaking and then eventually coming together again. They were really cute. The way Liam was always secretly in love with her was adorable. I loved their grandparents despite what they did. They were truly the glue of the book. I loved how at the end we kind of get a glimpse at potential future stories. Overall, this was really good.

It was good! It was cute! It was… like every other romance book I’ve read. I definitely love that they have known each other all their lives but the guy is not like able to me. Other than that, it feels like every other romance I’ve read. Good, not great. In romance, you have to stand apart more and be memorable! A good beach read.

4- I enjoyed the book, engagement of convenience, the distillery and restaurant, friends to lovers, grumpy/ sunshine tropes worked.
Where it lost me was the 3rd act break was really brutal and honestly, I don’t know how they come back from it. In addition, I think it I was not a social worker in healthcare I would have enjoyed the plot with the grandpas more but seeing as I have to get families to respect health wishes all the time it was too close to home.
It was still enjoyable overall.
