This was a fun rom-com with a lot of depth!
First off, the title is perfect because it sums up the book so well. Two friends, Theo and Evie, get married so Evie (who has a chronic illness) can get good health benefits and together they qualify for Theo‘s rent controlled apartment.

Took a little walk after lunch around Marion, IA and stopped into the Marion Chocolate Shop (their caramels are so good 😋) and the HEA Book Boutique - a romance themed book store. First time I‘ve visited and it‘s very cute. I got myself the tagged book and a T-shirt that says “I closed my book to be here”
Two knights with different world views are enemies in real life and friends and partners in a popular role playing game. There is a lot to take in but it was a fun way to receive it.
This was such a fun and sweet romantic comedy!
This is my first book by the author, Amy Lea, so going in I didn‘t have any expectations. After reading this, I can tell why so many people love her books. Her writing style is so engaging that it made the book go by so quickly!
I loved the premise and it was executed so well.

This was a fun story. The character, Saoirse, was both funny and snarky. This was a great romance book. It was both sweet and funny. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This was such a fun romance set in NYC!
This was my first book by Alex Aster, so going into it I had no set expectations. I was pleasantly impressed!
Immediately, I was drawn in by the author‘s writing style. It was easy, effortless, and genuinely funny.
As for the two main characters, Elle and Parker, I liked Parker way more than I liked Elle.
