Story
Sadie Wen is perfect on paper: school captain, valedictorian, and a "pleasure to have in class." It's not easy, but she has a trick to keep her model-student smile plastered on her face at all times: she channels all her frustrations into her email drafts. She'd never send them of course—she'd rather die than hurt anyone's feelings—but it's a relief to let loose on her power-hungry English teacher or a freeloading classmate taking credit for Sadie's work. All her most vehemently worded emails are directed at her infuriating cocaptain, Julius Gong.

Sweet story

This book reminds me of a high school kdrama. It was very sweet. It had a great enemy to romantic partner storyline.

Story
As a published novelist, Lila Rose has been writing about fictional weddings all her life. But disaster strikes on her own big day when she hears her philandering fiancé, Daniel, whispering sweet nothings to someone else. With her dream day shattered, all Lila wants to do is run and hide, so she decides to fly solo on her own honeymoon. When Daniel arrives in the resort with his new squeeze, Lila strikes up a ‘showmance’ with hot new movie star Freddie Bianchi. Freddie is perfect for the part, and Lila soon relaxes into her leading lady role.

Story
The happiest day of Payton Lambert's life was the day she graduated high school and watched Bald Knob, Kentucky, get smaller and smaller in her rearview mirror. She wanted more for her life than a tiny town where everyone knows your business and you can't find a decent cup of coffee for at least 40 miles. Twelve years later an unexpected phone call in the middle of the night has her packing up her life in Chicago and racing back home to the one person she ever regretted leaving behind.

She was unmarried, untouched, and almost 30, but novelist Amanda Briars wasn't about to greet her next birthday without making love to a man. When he appeared at her door, she believed he was her gift to herself, hired for one night of passion. Unforgettably handsome, irresistibly virile, he tempted her in ways she never thought possible . . . but something stopped him from completely fulfilling her dream.

Too modern
Reviewed: 06-26-19
Modern story set in Victorian England. No research and not believable. Just write a modern story rather than revise history. I miss actual historical romances.

Honestly I didn’t like the female lead the first third of the book, but the story and the male lead kept me hooked. It was a fun story and I liked all the secondary characters very much. This book would make the perfect romcom!

Just finished this book and was sad to have it end. Loved it! Almost like a fairytale but better.
The narrator did a fantastic job too. I listened to the book on audible.

Reviewed: 09-12-17
I really enjoy Jodi Taylor's authentic storytelling and dialog as well as her characters. I fell in love with her Nothing Girl and am reading my way through the rest of her books. The narrator got a bit too Whiny and nasally for my taste, but I still enjoyed the story.

I enjoyed this story and look forward to listening to it again. I enjoyed Brian Kilmeade's narration although I burst out laughing twice just as his emphasis on a couple words caught my funny bone. I'd recommend this book.
