June has a failing scone and tea shop and was dumped by her long term boyfriend on tv and becomes a meme.

Levi moves back to his hometown after his long term girlfriend cheats on him with a movie star. .

June and Levi are childhood friends and after their super public breakups decide to fake date. Nothing could go wrong, right?

Emma Lord writes some funny books! I was hooked from the beginning and enjoyed how June and Levi grew.

This feels so silly to say but I requested this book and thought it was about a wife solving her husband's murder or something. I was so wrong and IM SO HAPPY I WAS.

Jessica Waite wrote a beautiful memoir about grief and losing her husband while raising her son. I found out that she is a local author and it was really interesting because I could picture all the places she described.

I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone going through the loss of someone or wanting to know how people can navigate it.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for a copy for review.
