Becca's bf is dead and her career is stuck. Fellow writer Riley invites her to the Irish countryside and she jumps at the chance. BUT Riley turns out to be a man and their pasts are both complicated....
A fun rom-com. I love Riley and Becca. Sweet story with lots of LOL scenes. Fun banter. Really enjoy it.
Thanks to the publisher for the arc.
As soon as I started this book I knew I loved it. It kept me hooked and I would definitely read more bynthe author in future releases.
Breea Keenan, just got herself a new fan! This is a book that had me smiling, crying, giggling like a loon at midnight. At times, even had me shedding a few heart-clenching tears. My emotions were all over the place because every word meant something, every emotion counted, and every sentence struck the right chord. Loved it very much.
Thank you Netgalley, Headline, and author Breea Keenan for providing an ARC in exchange for a review! I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
4.5 stars (rounded to 5)
I have to admit it: I’m a sucker for rom-coms and, just like our MMC Riley, I’m a hopeless romantic. This book was delightful, I laughed and I cried while reading it, it’s everything I could ask for from a book like this.
The premise is simple: Riley invites Becca to stay over at the charming Irish countryside after Becca’s life turned upside down. However, Riley, who Becca had always thought to be a fellow female writer, turns out to be a hot, six-foot tall Irish man. I find it hard to believe that Becca never suspected that her online friend wasn’t a woman or that Riley never pointed out that he was a man, but we’ll see past that small detail for the sake of love and Grand Gestures.
In addition, I’m used to reading rom-com set in the States and seeing this story unfold in a much familiar land felt so gratifying, as if a love story like this could actually happen to you too. The banter between our two main characters was hilarious and the build up to their relationship was executed perfectly well. I loved Ivy, Bridget and Ellie. They’re such charming characters, the cherry on top!
Plot Twist is a page-turner, charming book that I’m sure will captivate rom-com lovers when it comes out! And after discovering this is Keenan’s debut novel, I can’t only imagine how good her future novels are going to be… I can’t wait to read them!
