This was so cute! I laughed, I even cried at some points, and just thoroughly enjoyed Poppy (a chef) and Dallas (a professional hockey player).

I loved the meet-cute. I love him always reassuring her that she's worthy when she thinks she's not and she does the same for him. They share their secrets and their pain and just grow as close friends so fast and that really paved the way for their falling in love. They are just a natural fit!

I loved the side characters of Dallas's Grandma (who he's loving helping through hip surgery/recovery), she is so wise and funny. I'm glad that the hockey player wives she meets are so much nicer than Monica (mean girl never grew out of mean girl). I love how Poppy's family looks out for her. 

Such a cute book to read around Valentine's!
