After an expected proposal from her much older boyfriend of 8 years turns into her being dumped, Hollyn moves in with her brother and her brother's best friend, Dax. Dax has loved Hollyn since before he was a teenager and with Hollyn back and sharing the apartment he lives in, he finds his old feelings re-surfacing. Dax has entered a reality florist competition and recruits Hollyn as his assistant; between working together and sharing an apartment, Hollyn is starting to see Dax for who he really is.

This was an AMAZING read! I loved it all. It was a quick read, the characters were well developed and lovable - I could not put it down. There are so many laughable moments, TONS of flirtation, and still a good deal of drama. PERFECT rom com- Would highly recommend.

Ooh, ooH, ooh! This book was a firecracker! This story by Aimee brown is equal parts bold, clever and original. Hilarious—oh my God is it HILARIOUS! I think I was on page two when I laughed into my coffee and had to set my cup down. I fell in love with Hollyn and Dax, and even the side characters, Mercy and River especially, and I was delighted to read that they are getting their own books (insert field mouse scream here)! I’ll make sure not to drink coffee and read next time.

I was approved for this book in the morning and closed it hours later for the first time on the last page. I don’t think I’ve ever read a romcom that was able to blend comedy and romance with layered and complex characters before. Add to that a plot that is fresh and original and you’ve got yourself a firecracker. One bright, not to be missed firecracker. Thank you NetGalley, Boldwood and author Aimee Brown for gifting me this book in exchange for an honest review.
