This book is so heartwarming and beautiful in a lot of ways!
London and Dahlia are both gorgeous characters with detailed and relatable backstories. I really loved the opposites attract quality to the book along with the rollercoaster of emotions that come with finding ‘the one’.
The characters personal journeys are obviously the most important aspect of the plot, but placing them in the setting of a reality tv cooking show was brilliant!
I know I’ve said this before, but Anita Kelly is one of my absolute favourite storytellers! They just strike the perfect balance between the wholesome falling in love feels and the angst/fear that comes along with them.
There’s also a bunch of adorable side characters that add such a wonderful layer to the already beautiful plot.
It’s sad that I only have one more book left in this series now, I could honestly read a thousand books about this gorgeous little friend group and their partners.
