solomiya's Reviews > Once More with Feeling

Elissa Sussman is now two for two on delivering lighthearted yet emotional celebrity romances. It says a lot that I really love her books because second chance is one of my least favorite tropes. But I love how Sussman doesn’t bog down her stories by rehashing the past too much and making it as painful as possible. She keeps the ‘Then’ chapters short and sweet and focuses on the present and untangling the character’s histories with each other.

The romance was sweet and the friendships were awesome. I’m only dropping one star because I wanted Cal to fight for her more. Yes, most of what happened between them was Kathleen’s fault but he was just a little too passive for me.

Thank you to NetGalley and Random House for an ARC of this book!
