It takes a lot for me to give a book five stars, but this one deserves it. This was a smart, engaging page turner that mixes the atmosphere of the movie Boiler Room with systems of social injustice that exist in the professional world and society at large. A fantastic debut. Bravo, Mateo. Bravo.

This was a cute YA novel. As a lover of books, I was immediately drawn to the main character, Becca and her love for all things books, especially romance books. If I were still a classroom teacher, this is a book that I would add to my classroom library and encourage students to read.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC. I have to say, I didn’t love this one. The cover is a bit misleading as I think this book is more about the three women than it is Jemima and Chance. At times, the plot seemed lost and the characters were annoying.

I wanted to read this one simply because I just finished a road trip to several NPs in Utah and I thought that was a unique approach to a romance novel. I’ve read every book from this author and there seems to be one common factor with each one...I never see myself in the book. Sarah’s stories are usually fun and light, but they never have much diversity and this continues to be something that I hope she can remedy in an organic way. I’m not sure if the misogyny and sexism are in connection to current social issues, but it did feel like overkill at times. All in all, like her other books, this one made me smile at times and the NP coverage in general is why I gave it this rating.
