Poppy and Alex have been known each other for 12 years. For 11 of those they’ve been best friends. For & of those years they go on yearly summer vacations. They haven’t spoken for the last 2 years. This summer it’s their last chance to fall in love.

Eep! This one is feet kicking giggling falling in love perfection! One of my all time favourite movies is When Harry Met Sally and it gives a cross between that and One Day by David Nicholls for me! My favourite romances are friends to lovers and enemies to lovers so this slow burning falling in love tension was delectably perfect for me! I’ve been noticing a cute trend lately with romances where I can’t seem to not find ways that the sweet romantic gestures remind me of my partner. And this one was no different! Alex is nothing like my partner in personality. But hey, what’s a girl to do other than use romances to fall further in love also with her beloved?
