Pack your bags because it's time for a road trip. And this one will be unlike any other because Cassidy and Luke just met. Everything might not go as planned but you will laugh at the unexpected bumps in the road and swoon at the palpable sexual tension. So, find a comfy spot with your favorite snacks and enjoy the ride!

Planes, Trains, and All the Feels follow Cassidy and Luke as they both try to make it home. Cassidy is on a time crunch to make it to her sister's wedding, and Luke is going home to see his mother and sister. Now, that their flight makes an emergency landing and no more flights are taking off, they agree to split the last rental car. It should be a smooth ride but that wouldn't be exciting now would it?

What's so fun about their road trip is that Cassidy and Luke are polar opposites. Cassidy is bubbly and can make a new friend wherever she goes while Luke likes to stick to his structure. They didn't get off on the right foot but are putting their differences aside for this adventure. It really does give me all the feels to see them grow together and experience life in a new way. Their chemistry is just perfect and I couldn't help but smile. And yes, I did get frustrated at times only because they felt like they weren't good enough for each other. I wanted to shake them and help them see that it's just fear getting in the way of something great.

Livy Hart writes an adventurous rom-com about two opposites finding love. These characters are special and I enjoyed reading this book so much!

Planes, Trains, and All the Feels was such a wild ride! Cassidy is trying to fly home in time to help her sister with her wedding. Luke suspects there’s something his sister isn’t telling him about their Mom’s health and is making an impromptu trip to get answers. If only it were as simple as just hopping on a flight.

This book really kept me on my toes. Just when you think things are going to work out, something happens. There were times I laughed and times my jaw dropped. Cassidy and Luke’s dynamic is a trip in itself.

If you’re looking for a witty, unpredictable read that reminds us not to take everything so seriously, you’ll want to add Planes, Trains, and All the Feels to your TBR and set your preorder up now!

A big thank you to Entangled Publishing for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of this book. The review expresses my own personal opinion.

PT&ATF was exactly what I hoped it would be: a light hearted story of two strangers who find themselves travelling across the country, fighting murphy's law, and their feelings for each other. It was so refreshing to read a RomCom that was actually funny! Not only that, but Livy wrote an enemies to lovers trope where I could actually believe the early hate days because she took care to incorporate speckles of human kindness and relatability.

My only qualm was the entire premise of the book was based on the idea that in a town of 50,000 Luke & Cassidy couldn't find a hotel, rental car, etc. which started them on their journey.. As someone from a town about that size - while it is no metropolis - it certainly has many options for sleep and transportation. This pulled me out of the story for a minute, but I was quickly drawn back in.

Thank you to Entangled Publishing and Netgalley for sending me an e-ARC of this book to read and review! I absolutely loved this. From the banter to the swooniness to the overall fun of a travel experience, there were so many good things. Cassidy was a sunshine and I adored her and related to her vulnerabilities. Luke was uptight at first and he had his reasons, but man he is good. He's got a dirty mouth and I couldn't get enough of that. The spice was great here and I felt like it was done at such a good point in the book. Also I loved the commentary from Berkeley and Will, the two best friends here (speaking of we better get their book!). So many scenes stuck out to me and I love the whole concept of getting to know someone through your transportation experiences. I had so much fun reading this and would definitely read more from Hart!

If you love a hot and humorous rom com, look no further than Planes, Trains, and All the Feels. Livy Hart takes a not so cute first impression and turns it into a fabulous, steamy road trip adventure that I couldn’t put down.

4.5/5 stars

Cassidy is desperate to make her flight on her way to her sister’s LA wedding. When Luke steals her airport parking spot, she gets out of her car to yell at him. Luke is seemingly unfazed, and blows her off in an attempt to catch his own flight. The reader will be shocked to find out they end up sitting across the aisle from each other on their flight west. But when the plane is forced to make an emergency landing, the two opposites team up to make to LA as soon as possible. Naturally, a few mishaps occur along the way, along with an increasing attraction. Will they make it in time for the wedding? And what on earth will they do with all these feelings?

I love a good road trip romance, especially when the main characters are on page together almost the entire time. Cassidy and Luke are forced to deal with each other as the delays pile up, and their hilarious bickering is a treat. It’s also a chance for their palpable chemistry to fill each each scene.

Aside from the travel stresses, they each have to deal with with their own dysfunctional families. While the extroverted Cassidy and introverted Luke initially appear to be complete opposites, their family obligations are one of their many similarities.

If you love a road trip romance with characters who can’t keep their hands to themselves, read Planes, Trains, and All the Feels. This opposites attract book was my first by Livy Hart and I can’t wait to read more. She creates great characters, adds an entertaining premise, and combines them for a fun, hot romance.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advance copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I may be mildly obsessed with Livy now. Oh who am I kidding, I'm absolutely obsessed. This book was so good. Accidentall road trip from hell that leads to romance with so many beautiful moments of foot in mouth situations, sweetnes and spice(ohhhh the spice is so goooooood). Between Sam and now Luke i can safely say Livy writes some prime quality book boyfriend material. And her heroines are amazing too. But what I love the most is that while this is a romance book, at it's core this is a book about the love we have for the important people in our lives and the lengths we would go to for them.
I would also like to point out that I would like to drag Francesca up and down LA.
5 starts!! ❤️❤️

Have you ever taken a trip only to have EVERYTHING go incredibly wrong?

Cassidy and Luke are trying to get from
North Carolina to California - separately. Both are running incredibly late due to the snow, first he takes her parking spot, then he doesn’t hold the door of the shuttle and causes her to miss it. Then the plane gets a crack and has to land in Missouri. Then the train is not only late but it’s also the speedy Amtrak they expected.

And somehow in the midst of all this chaos, a friendship & love is formed in one of the best meet cutes & Grump/Sunshine, Strangers-to-Lovers (which both may be my absolute favorite romance tropes) story I’ve read so far this year. Their banter, their chemistry, their connection… it’s just that good.

However, I was screaming at them to stop thinking that they weren’t enough for the other and just admit their feelings. And the third act breakup - wrecked me. But Livy Hart knows how to bring two characters back together with a beautiful grand gesture.

Livy Hart may become an auto-buy author for me if she keeps producing books like this.

Thank you to Entangled Publishing for the Netgalley widget for this ARC, in exchange for my honest & unbiased review.

I 110% absolutely LOVED this book!

Thank you to Riki at Entangled Insiders for the ARC to review prior to publishing and I am sorry I couldn't wait for the read along but it was just too good.

Cassidy just reminds me of, well me. Everything always goes wrong in such amazing fashion. From losing her parking space to missing her shuttle bus. Planes, Trains and all the Feels really does take you on a hilarious journey across the country.

Cass is a funny self deprecating 26 year old Dancer who has no idea how infuriating she is to Will. The stuffy uptight Actuary from Raleigh, NC. Both are heading to CA to visit family and face problem after problem on the road trip of a lifetime.

10/10 this book has laughs, tears, sassy best friends and horrible mothers. Most of all it has two people who dislike each other slowly r realising they are each others person. With a side of snark and spice.
