Spring is in the air and there is no better time to start this feel good romcom! The story of a florist, Kat, who is tired of selfish jerks on her way to finding the perfect relationship, I couldn’t stop myself from rooting for her every step of the way. Kat was smart, witty, and interesting from the very beginning just by being herself. However, the addition of an adorable hedgehog and absolute sweetheart of a grandmother never hurts!
One of my favorite moments of the book was the introduction of the immediately lovable, Mick O’Sullivan. He and his family were such a joy to read about and I really felt like I was actually attending one of their family parties with the vibrant descriptions. The O’Sullivan family also allowed for the perfect amount of tension when Mick’s perfect brother entered the equation.
From the moment they meet, their chemistry is evident. Through a series of adventures, Mick and Kat learn about who they really want to be and what they want from a relationship. I loved the elements that helped the characters learn about themselves, but some of the plot points felt forced, rather than given the chance to grow organically. This was especially apparent in some of the spicier scenes. It felt like some of the earlier spice was simply to add spice, rather than adding to the character development.
⅘ Stars for this wonderfully easy read!
