Great little romcom, super great to read on holiday. It was light, easy and made me laugh out loud! Really loved it and would like to read more from the author.

This is a Beach Read romance for sure! Otherwise it is seriously going to give you beach holiday envy.
A grumpy/sunshine sort of enemies to lovers romance that is light and easy and so quick to read, it shows how well written it is.
Each having their own reasons for taking on a job that sends them abroad (to Bali no less) for a 3 month working holiday in a rundown bookshop these two characters take very different approaches to their working holiday but find ways of working together and discovering themselves and each other.

I received this book as an ARC from NetGalley for an honest review.

A fun bit of escapism that makes all of us voracious readers wish that such jobs existed, I’d be on the first plane to Thailand that’s for sure!

4/5 stars! The cover of this book was cute and reminded me of Emily Henry's Beach Reads bright colors, so I was excited to check it out. What I think was really special about this contemporary romance is that it focused on the individual character's personal growth as well as their romantic connection. I really enjoyed Jack and Clare and watching them grow together was really cute. There was surprising depth within this book and I'll be keeping an eye out for the author's next book.

I received an advance review copy for free through NetGalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily

*thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an early copy of this book in exchange for an honest review*

This was so much fun .Perfect enemies to lovers quick and easy read.laughed at the antics.would definitely recommend and will be reading this author in the future.

This was such a fun read! It was absolutely nothing like what I expected it to be but I still loved it nevertheless. I was hooked in from the start and ended up binging it in one sitting!! I loved that this book gave equal attention to the different aspects and relationships. The way it focused on Clare, her own goals and her relationship with herself on an equal footing with her relationship with Jack and the glimpses of himself. I felt like having flawed characters made this book an even special one and with the character development? it made me love the book even more. I definitely loved that it portrayed the bookstore in SUCH a special way, I could imagine it and everything in it so vividly. I loved the moments where Jack brought his walls down and his silent and unique love was exactly that: unique. Even though at times they both were mean to each other, their chemistry and friendship was something I cherished a lot. And of course, the side characters: Adam & Celestine, they were the perfect and beautiful addition to the story. But, yes, hands down, the love and progress I saw in Clare for herself and her love for books was my favourite part of it all.

tropes:
• enemies to lovers
• workplace romance
