After four years with her boyfriend, Cadie McCaffrey is thinking of ending things. Convinced Will doesn't love her in the "forever" way she loves him, Cadie believes it's time for her to let him go before life passes her by. When a misunderstanding leads to a mistake, leaving her hurt, disappointed, and full of regret, she finally sends him packing.
But for Will, the end of their relationship is only the beginning of his quest to figure out how to be the man Cadie wanted him to be. With the dubious guidance of his former pro-athlete work friends and tactics drawn from Cadie's favorite romantic comedies, Will attempts to win her back. It's a foolproof plan. What could possibly go wrong?
Bethany Turner is back with more of the heart and humor readers love. Anyone who enjoys a good romance or binges romantic comedies on Netflix will devour this delightful story.
My Thoughts
After thoroughly enjoying Bethany Turner’s debut last year I have been anxiously awaiting this novel! And with her trademark humor and such an entertaining plot I knew it was gonna be a good one!
I have to start with Will. I loved his adorably clueless self so stinkin much! From the moment he walked onto the scene in the prologue he stole my heart. He wasn’t perfectly chiseled handsome but he had the perfect combination of imperfections that made him completely attractive. But he was one of those guys who has no clue how good-looking they are and that just made him cuter. He was trying so hard in his relationship with Cadie but their lack of communication was really their downfall. I felt so bad for the poor guy who really just didn’t have a clue what was going on.
I started off liking Cadie but through the second half I started to get a little frustrated with her and her reactions to Will (#TeamWill). But once again it came down to them not talking, she kept so many things bottled inside for so long that they festered into ugly wounds that poisoned her thoughts and actions. And even though I got annoyed for a bit I still cheered when they finally cleared the air and found each other again!
Will’s crash course on romcoms provided so much entertainment, especially when he got the other guys involved! They were all cracking me up so much!
Basically this book was exactly what I was hoping it would be, full of humor that made me laugh out loud and romance that made me melt a little! Definitely one I recommend!
