The Charm Offensive was written especially for me and you’ll never be able to convince me otherwise. This is the hill I will die on. Okay, okay. Fine. If you love The Bachelor/Bachelorette, reality TV, romance and Happily-Ever-After love stories, this novel is for you, too. I’m learning to share my toys. It’s a work in progress.

Alison Cochran seems to have sifted through the corners of my soul, distilled the contents down, and compiled all portions into a perfect love story. The Charm Offensive is everything I want in a romantic comedy: witty banter dialogue, awkward but mostly realistic scenarios, seriously flirting, and tension.

The Charm Offensive also has so many elements I didn’t know I needed until I read them: personal growth, mental health awareness, self care, exhibiting how to overcome internal struggle and how to choose ourselves at the end of the day. A love story doesn’t have to be a romantic love story (although this one has it!), it can be platonic love and self-love, too, and matter just as much, if not more.

I loved this novel and will be recommending it to every single person I know from now on.
