I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

I really liked this book! I thought it had a great plot and the writing was really good. I was immediately interested in the book because the description compared it to The Unhoneymooners (one of my favorite books) and The Hating Game (which we’ve recorded a podcast on). I really liked both of those books so I was pulled into this one. I must say that I love the kind of story where the characters hate each other, or just like in The Hating Game there’s only really one person who is hating. I just love when it’s all because of a miscommunication and this one was done really well. I thought the ending was really good as well but as usual I would have loved an epilogue. I feel like at times though it was almost a direct rip off of the books mentioned especially The Hating Game. Like sometimes it just felt identical but otherwise it was its own unique story. I did like the plot that they go on the cruise together though at times I was really confused as to why Walsh was with them. It wasn’t until the end that I understood Walsh’s part in the whole story, before that it was kind of like and why is she here? In general I thought there were some great side characters but at times I just didn’t understand their purpose at the moment they were mentioned. Overall I really liked Graeme (still don’t know how to actually pronounce the name) and Henley they were really cute and nice characters. I give this book 4 cups of tea!
