Many thanks to Forever (Grand Central Publishing) and NetGalley for the ARC of this book!
I’m SUPER late to review this ARC. This book came out last year and I finally read it. Now I’m mad at myself for taking so long to read it because it’s SO good! The Blum family and the Stark family grew up together. Molly and Jude, the younger ones, were once friends, but early on became enemies. They would prank each other and call each other names. So when they get stuck picking out a venue together for both of their parents’ anniversaries, Molly already knew it was going to be awful. But somewhere along the line they become friends. And when it comes time for the party, they each bring dates… that closely resemble each other. But are they good together?
This was a great rom-com, as you can see from what I said above, I wish I would have read it earlier! This book has some of my favorite tropes: enemies to friends to lovers and exact opposites. The families of these two seem like so much fun – families that I would love to be a part of. Are Molly and Jude sometimes childish with their pranks? Yes! But that is the FUN of the book!
But alas, the romance. Oh the romance. I really thought these two had great chemistry and it was so nice to see them finally get together. Though, there were some really hard moments and fighting for them to figure things out. Both said some hurtful things. But that’s reality. I know that I’ve said hurtful things in the heat of the moment. These two are no different.
So romance readers, check this one out if you haven’t already!
