My favourite romance trope has to be, and probably always will be enemies-to-lovers. The Layover was a top tier excellent example of this!

The protagonist, Ava, is funny and sparky. She is relatable and likeable and I found myself warming to her almost instantly. Her "antagonist", Jack, is an absolute sweetheart and the tension between them crackles from the getgo.

What is also a rarity for this book is the minor characters and the depth of thought in which which have been planned and executed- I honestly loved every single one of them right to the end of the novel.

It is also very easy to tell that Waldon is an experienced flight attendant, with a wealth of expertise regarding this on show in the little contextual details provided about Ava and her career.

Exactly what I needed to read this summer.
