This was fine. It's nothing special but it's also not terrible. The characters are pretty standard (her sunshiney, him grumpy), plenty of tropes, no major surprises except maybe how spicy some of the scenes were. (IMO, the spiciness level did not match the tone of the rest of the book) I didn't hate it, but I also didn't love it. Pretty middle of the road for me.

Cassidy is on her way home to help with upcoming wedding of her sister. But it looks like whole word is against her. First someone steals her parking space, then the plane make emergency landing and last rental car is taken by someone else. One good thing is that someone is willing to share car ride with her.
This is first book by Livy Hart I read and I have to say I'm adding her to my authors to read list. I loved storyline and characters in this book. So happy I give it a chance.

I loved this book so much - Cassidy and Luke are two strangers who have a meet-awkward while trying to fly across the country, and end up travelling together when bad weather grounds their plane. Luke is the perfect buttoned up hero, and Cassidy is exactly the type of heroine needed to get him to open up. This book was lighthearted and had great banter, but still dealt with emotional issues (Cassidy and Luke both have strained relationships with their mothers). This was such an enjoyable reading experience, and it has definitely guaranteed I will be keeping an eye out for whatever Livy Hart writes next.

Trains, Planes, and All the Feels by Livy Hart

Like the movie this title is a play on, this is about two weary travelers trying to make it home while encountering every travel delay that they could possibly imagine. They also start out really not liking each other. Cassidy is a dancer/choreographer trying to make it home for her sister’s wedding and Luke is an actuary going home to help take care of his sick mother.

After the first major travel delay, they team up to get home, and enter a tentative truce. As the trip goes on, their attraction to and understanding of each other grows.

This is a cute book, but if you’re coming into it expecting the same tone as the movie, it’s not that. It’s a contemporary romance, but it’s not a rom-com, so I wouldn’t necessarily anticipate that. The trip itself felt a little slow getting started, and the end of the ⅓ mark, I wasn’t sure if I was going to finish. There just wasn’t enough happening (other than two people traveling together and talking to each other) to feel compelling enough to want to know what was going to happen next. However, I’m really glad I kept going because it did get a little bit spicy towards the end, and I enjoyed it. It also felt like we were being set up for a sequel/another book in the same universe with Will and Berkley, and I’d be willing to tune in for that. Overall, there were some slow parts but I really enjoyed this!

Thank you to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing LLC for ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was one of the best Rom-Coms I've read so far this year. I simply adored this! It kept me up late til I finishes this.

THIS ONE! I felt all the feels, forreal. God, I'm obsessed with this one, and I'm so happy to have been given a copy. This is one that I could read over and over again. Strangers to lovers, forced proximity, road trips, and extreme dislike at first? Needed it immediately and loved it WHOLLY. This book was so funny and so cute. I highly recommend this one.

3.5 stars

This is going to be the perfect read for summer. Cute, fun, and a fast read that you will fly through while laughing at the craziness that is US travel.

It was a riot to see how these two handled all the ups and downs of their trip. Complete strangers flying to the same destination but in the blink of an eye the trip turns into a disaster. From flying to driving to taking a train these two experienced it all.

With tropes of opposites attract, misunderstanding meet cute, forced prox, road trips, and insta love you’re bound to enjoy this cutesy meet cute. My only real complaint was how insta love this was. I think it would’ve been even more enjoyable with a bit of time for the characters to really connect but overall I still would recommend this to everyone this summer.

This book was such a fun book. The wit, puns, overall banter was just unmatched. Like an episode of Gilmore Girls meets Sophie Kinsella, but less chaotic and with a grumpy MMC. It doesn’t get better than that. One of my favorites quotes and prime example of the colorful banter is “We co-exist in silence long enough that an inkling of color threatens the cloudy horizon. It is the La Croix flavor of sunrise, an almost imperceptible taste.”

It was funny and emotional and you were just rooting for the characters from the get go. It was also a little bit suspenseful, because you were just wondering what on Earth was going to go wrong for them next. It did lose me a little bit about halfway through, because the slow burn seemed to be a little too slow, combined with them traveling for what seemed like forever. But I was right back in it when the spice hit hehehe.

Now we just need a sequel for Berkeley and Will’s story…right????

this was adorable! thoroughly enjoyable and characters that just hit the spot.
I enjoyed the road trip vibes and the build up of the chemistry.

After a disastrous meet-cute in an airport parking lot, Luke and Cassidy find themselves in another pickle--their plane had to make an emergency landing in the middle of nowhere and their replacement flight was canceled. Both are desperate to get back on the road, but only Luke is able to snag a rental car. Guilty over their first interaction, Luke offers Cassidry a ride that she has no choice but to accept. Together the two find themselves on an unexpected journey across the country.

I'm absolutely obsessed with this! The banter was A+ and Luke and Cassidy had great chemistry (the spice was on point!!). I loved how well-developed the characters were. Their backstories connected perfectly with their actions and reactions and that is one of my favorite things! I completely understood why they did or said certain things because we get a good understanding of where they are coming from. I will say, however, that the road trip mishaps were ridiculously over the top (and some were borderline unbelievable), but this all added to the lighter, fun parts of the story. Also, if the next book isn't about Berkeley and Will, I will riot.

Planes, Trains, and All the Feels is a fun read that draws you in and doesn't let you go.

From the first chapter, I was laughing with (not at!) Cassidy and Luke as they begin their cross country trek together.

From her frustration at him stealing her parking spot to their getting stuck in Missouri (Im from MO and feel their pain!) it is easy to get caught in their journey from friendship to more.

This was the perfect book to read while I was on my vacation. I laughed and smiled my way through their journey.

Cassidy loses her parking space, has the shuttle leave without her and barely makes the flight which is aborted due to a cracked windshield. Luke takes her parking space which he thinks is his and didn't notice the shuttle door closing. They both are having a frustrating day. They decide to share a rental care and drive because a winter storm has shut down flights. To say they have a series of bad luck and misadventures is an understatement. They grow in their attraction and make the best of what would have left me crying curled up in the fetal position. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and as tough as things were for them during the trip and after, I still was left feeling hope and light.

Thanks to NetGalley and Entangled Publishing for an ARC of this book.

What a wild ride this book was !! Two strangers end up "travelling' together, or at least attempt to travel together because if anything could go wrong, it does. How the characters dealt with these misfortunes, and each other, kept me engaged from the first chapter. The banter back and forth between them was well done, and just so much fun. I'll admit when they stopped travelling and arrived at their destinations (about 75% through the book), it slowed down a bit for me, but overall, the book is a delight.

Planes, Trains, and All the Feels is my first book by author by Livy Hart. But I really enjoyed her writing style. This story had it all... sweet love connection, laugh-out-loud humor, relatable characters, and a love story with a happily, ever after!

I recommend this one! And cannot wait to read other books by Livy Hart!

Planes, Trains and All the Feels...! Where do I even begin? This was my first book by Livy Hart and won't be my last. The book starts off with what feels like a mess of a heroine, Cassidy, and a got it all together hero, Luke, having the worst first moments together. Scratch that, make it days together. They are thrust together in one worst case scenario after another and begin to rely on each other to make it through the events right from the start, even though they may be gritting their teeth with one another (at first). I loved the development of getting to know these characters. They are both so much more than they seem and watching their understanding and compassion for one another grow as more and more crazy obstacles come their way was truly lovely. It was a slow burn for sure but once this couple realizes what they could be together it is all fire and heat! Neither H/h is without flaws but together they seem to make it all work in the end. A definite must read for the year!

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

I was expecting this to be your typical rom/com, chick lit book, but it was much more. Sure, it is a romantic comedy that will appeal mostly to women, but it has so much more substance than your typical rom com. The characters of Cassidy and Luke are the definition of opposites attract. Cassidy is fun loving and talkative. Luke is a straight-laced businessman who keeps his feelings to himself. When circumstances put them together for a cross country road trip, they naturally open up. Told in alternating points of view the author does a great job of revealing both main characters' thoughts, vulnerabilities and dreams.

I loved the slow build of their relationship and their interactions, especially all of the small thoughtful things Luke does for Cassidy and the way she makes friends with everybody she meets. They are both struggling with family issues, and I think this is what gives the book more depth. While I normally glaze over multiple chapters of explicit sex scenes I will say these were unique and very steamy!

Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read the ARC of this book. It was a wonderful mix of romance, comedy and heartfelt emotions. Great title too!

This book has all the makings of absolute cuteness. The premise is two strangers on the same cross country flight get stranded and have to find an alternative way to their destination. I happily abandoned my sense of reality to take this trip with this hate to love story line. The characters themselves are great even if not fully developed. Around 50% completion I started to worry about monotony but instead 60-85% of book completion went from the cutest, sweetest book to aggressively depicted sex scenes. After skipping ahead because that isn't as much my cup of tea, the book returns on track to its prior cuteness. The end shows just a bit of the flimsy character development now that the author is writing a storyline with drama but all well that ends well. Overall I liked the idea and premise, but between the unwanted steam factor and a little repetition of content, I left feeling entertained but not enriched. Thanks Net Galley for the ARC.

I didn’t like this quite like I did her last book Talk Flirty to Me, but I enjoyed myself reading it anyway. The book is a fun and chaotic story. Decent amount of spice once you hit the 60% ish mark.

I haven’t read a book all in one night in years but that’s exactly what I did last night with this book. I just could not put it down!

Planes, Trains, and All The Feels is funny, heartfelt, romantic and steamy. Definitely one of my top reads this year!

I didn't really like either of our main characters. I feel like a book with the friends Berkeley and Will would be more interesting. I also liked the side drama with Cassidy's sister and mom and Luke's mom better than the main story. It was a fun enough read but not particularly memorable.
