This charming romance flips the Notting Hill script—Gabe Parker is the hunky Hollywood star, while Chani Horowitz is the every-day girl—and adds an extra dash of social-media-celeb-obsession fun.

Chani writes a profile of Gabe Parker, the Hollywood himbo who’s trying to nab the role of the new James Bond. Chani’s profile goes viral and is so intimate and engaging, readers are left wondering—did they or didn’t they? When Gabe runs off literally the next day and marries the hottest Hollywood starlet, most assume they didn’t.

Plagued by the success of the profile—and its assumption that all she can write are puff pieces—Chani is hesitant to write about Gabe ten years later…after his fall from Hollywood’s grace due to his divorce and several rehab stints. Yet it seems like the original chemistry is still alive. Now did they or didn’t they becomes will they or won’t they?

I really enjoyed this romance. It takes a familiar trope and shakes things up, focusing on Chani and Gabe’s individual growth, which we see as it switches between the past and present. Chani can at times seem too timid, yet the seeds of that discontent become clearer later in the story. Sussman’s writing is funny, heartfelt, and perfectly in tune with the gloss of celebrity culture and the humanity that can be found beneath the glitz. Pick this one up, you won’t regret it!
