Daphne's life changes drastically when her fiance leaves her for his childhood best friend. She ends up rooming with his new girlfriends ex boyfriend Miles. They decide to fake date to get back at them but this story isn't really about that. It's about Daphne who has a life of people disappointing her and making her feel unwanted. It's about Miles hiding secrets behind a carefree happy friendly exterior. It's about finding your place and what you will compromise for and what you never will. It was good but some parts just didn't hit me as hard as I wanted it to. If you are a fan of Emily Henry you'll probably enjoy this anyway.
