This is a very British book - think Bridget Jones' Diary - and that is going to be the perfect cup of tea for some readers.  But others not so much.  Let me explain  :)

The entire book is from Jenni's perspective as she goes thru a pretty major change in her life.  She's single and has a habit apparently of kissing a few frogs, which she still does while at the same time learning a bit about herself.  There's a lot of self-discovery and growth for Jenni, as well as quite a bit of assuming and misunderstanding.  But she comes out the other side better off ... and with a HEA for herself.  

Unfortunately, while we get a lot of her development and her missteps along the way, we don't actually get a lot of the romance aspect of her eventually finding Mr. Right.  While Mills delivers a great read, it isn't as much of a romance as some readers may like.  

So.  If you are looking for a humorous, heartfelt journey piece with a happy ending then Under the Cherry Tree is definitely for you.  If you are looking for a more traditional love story, maybe come back here once you are in the mood for something a little different.
