""[She] writes with a singular wit, charm, and emotional complexity, every word just right, every page brimming with delicious tension."" — Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author of People We Meet on Vacation
International bestseller Mhairi McFarlane delivers a sharp, emotional new novel about a woman who calls off her engagement to ""the perfect man"" and moves in with a charming stranger who makes her question everything about her life, her past, and the secrets she's kept for far too long...
Harriet Hatley is the most in-demand wedding photographer in town, but she doesn’t believe in romance, loathes the idea of marriage, and thinks chocolate fountains are an abomination. Which is why, when her long-time partner proposes, she panics. Suddenly Harriet is single… and living down the hall from her ex. She needs a new apartment, like, yesterday.
Enter Cal Clarke, a hopeless romantic who just experienced his own wedding-related disaster. Harriet and Cal are like chalk and cheese, but as they go from strangers to roommates to friends, it becomes clear they’re both running from something. When Harriet’s most heavily guarded secret comes to light, her world implodes. And Cal, with his witty humor and gentle advice, is a surprising source of calm at the center of the storm.
With her career, friendships, and reputation on the line, Harriet must finally face her past in order to take control of her future. Because if she’s willing to stop playing it safe and risk everything to share her truth, real love and happiness may be waiting on the other side...

Så bra! En story som har en fast från början, utan att men vet exakt vad som ska hända. Runda karaktärer och precis lagom balans mellan romance-storylinen och huvudkaraktärens personliga storyline. Ibland kan jag tycka att man liksom vill skippa allt annat som händer och bara läsa/lyssna på när ”paret” interagerar, men här så var både romance delen och alla andra delar lika gripande!

McFarlane är bara så bra! Rekommenderar verkligen denna till den som gillar en feelgood böcker och chick-lit. Vem gillar inte kvinnor som står upp för varandra? Om uppläsaren, väldigt brittisk accent men jag vande mig väldigt fort och uppskattar verkligen dem små skillnaderna i tonläge och dialekt för olika karaktärer.

A 4 star ⭐️ book in its genre and 3.5 star ⭐️ overall. It’s the slow build and character development for me and a great book. Couldn’t stop listening
