I had so much fun reading this book, it made me want to become a fashion designer, book a trip to Paris, and wear a pair of comfy heels. Unfortunately, only two out of the three of those are possible.
One of my favourite aspects of this book is the way that it is also told from the point of view of Poppy who is trying to get Elle and Leo together. I think having an outside perspective made the book such a refreshing read. Delving into the lives of Poppy’s friends like Shaz and Jass only made the book more fulfilling because it felt like every character truly had their own world. This attention to detail, which isn’t something that I feel like romance books often do very well, truly pulled me into this book.
I was also pleasantly surprised by how much I adored the domesticity of Poppy and Tristan’s relationship. I enjoyed getting to see their dynamic and how they supported each other. With all the uncertainty between Elle and Leo and their coupling, it was nice to be able to retreat into the safety of Poppy’s rock-solid relationship during her chapters.
Leo’s confidence and adorably charming personality had me hooked on his character. Despite his douchey first reconnecting meeting with Elle, he was undeniably attractive in the way that he tried to revive their relationship through flirtatious banter and supportive actions.
Thank you to Netgalley, Sandy Barker, and Boldwood Books for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. I loved this book and I can’t wait to pick up Poppy’s romance story Match Me If You Can while I wait for the third book in the Ever After Agency series.
Five out of five stars
