Her books are my go-to comfort reads. Love Me Do transported me to California . . . I loved every minute' SOPHIE COUSENS The storyline can seem a bit childish at times but it’s all in good fun. There is a bit of miscommunication but it’s all due to the MCs trauma- which we find her battling throughout the book. Phoebe faces her demons in this wonderful, beautifully written story.

This book follows someone who has been through an emotional and mentally abusive relationship, who has now put walls up that are very hard to break down. After visiting her sister, meeting a new friend, meeting her sisters neighbor things take a wild turn. She tries to play matchmaker between her new friend and her sisters hot neighbor. She put other peoples feelings before hers, and with the help of Myrna Moore, she was able to realize it was time to put her wants and needs first. An adorable poolside read, full of golden retriever boyfriend energy, an idyllic sunny California setting, and rom-com/pithy one-liner energy!! Myrna, people, Myrna. Probably my favorite character outside of our female protagonist, Phoebe. Usually the old wise one trope is hit or miss for me, but this one absolutely served. Not only is our dear Ms. Moore a former actress, but she’s got the witty commentary and sarcastic nature I long for. She knows her self worth and she’s going to make sure you know yours too. I also just love rich people.I just wish the ending had been a little less rushed. So much happened at the end, and I think some of these events deserved a little more development- especially with the romance. Even though the romance wasn’t the main focus of the story, I was still hoping for a more passionate declaration of feelings. But if you’re looking for a story that’s more focused on friendships and self-growth, you may not mind that. Let’s talk Ren! I enjoyed how simple, down-to-earth and romantic he is. But he for sure needed to open his eyes up. Some things were so obvious that he should have noticed. A two-week holiday in LA proves to be life-changing for mild-mannered and lovelorn Brit, Pheobe Chapman. Phoebe and Ren were so cute together Manda it was fun seeing them interact and grow their connection throughout too. If you’re looking for a lighthearted summer or vacation read, look no further. I liked Phoebe´s character because I related to her on some level. She is kind, a romantic at heart and always wants the best for the people around her even if that means sacrificing part of herself for it. She always tried to do right by everybody and I loved the way how she valued her friendships and was there for everybody. I liked Ren, he is like a shy cinnamon roll; not your typical overprotective and possessive book boyfriend but a total cutie and such a softie and romantic.
