'Absolutely fantastic!... I cannot recommend this book enough!!' Stardust Book Reviews, 5 stars When Evelyn Dooley married her high-school sweetheart, James, she thought she was set for life. Now she's twenty-eight, single, and fleeing to Dublin from her hometown to avoid the gossip surrounding their break-up. And all because of a test-your-relationship board game. This was not in her five-year plan. Then a chance encounter with gorgeous musician Danny leads to an unlikely friendship, and soon the pair are running music nights together in one of the oldest pubs in Dublin. For the first time Evelyn is following her dreams rather than someone else's - and sparks are beginning to fly between her and Danny... But when her savings run out and home beckons, Evelyn has to choose. The safe, comfortable life she left behind, or a new adventure with Danny? Will Evelyn flee back to the familiarity of her ex, or reach for the stars and take a leap into the unknown? A laugh-out-loud, feel-good story of friendship, second chances, and romance, perfect for fans of Mhairi McFarlane, Lindsey Kelk and Marian Keyes.

A friend read this for a book club and recommended it, so here I am. About halfway through, it‘s super-predictable, I love the old barflies more than I care about the main character, and it‘s not particularly well-written, but it‘s cute enough (and short enough) that I don‘t mind as much as I might otherwise. And why not kick off the year with some mindless fluff? #imstillstanding #colleencoleman

I found this So boring! There was zero romantic tension, there was no moment where you questioned the main character‘s choice was going to be, the relationship was practically an instant love. There was never any build up and nothing ever seemed to happen, I had zero connection with any of the characters and I never cared about any of them.

I bought this book on a whim when Amazon had their Memorial Day sale, I have zero regrets about that! This isn't a all lovey dovey book, instead it is a story of a woman finding herself along love. There's laughter, love, and sadness in this book. If you like contemporary romance this is a book that I recommend trying out!!
