She read

Molly split with her high school sweetheart, Seth, breaking his heart, just before they were to leave for college. Seth, a divorce attorney in Chicago, believes in soulmates. Molly is a rom com screenwriter in LA, ironic since she always seems to sabotage her romantic relationships. They unexpectedly meet up at their 15th HS reunion and a spark is reignited, but just for one night, although Seth makes a bet they will be together for their 20th reunion.  They play on and off again with their relationship over the ensuing months, with Seth even getting engaged to someone else. Yet, they can’t seem to forget each other.  Who will win the bet?

Romance novels are not my typical go tos, but I loved this book.  Witty, entertaining, fast moving, I recommend this read to rom com fans as well as though wanting to dip into this genre. It is told in dual POVs, alternating between Molly and Seth.  As a Floridian, I was impressed by how much Doyle  really “gets” Florida.  Lots of good humor here! My only hesitation with the book is that Seth is almost too good to be true…but, after all, it is fiction!

Thanks to #NetGalley and @flatiron_books for the DRC.
