This YA romcom was such a delight with the tenderest of romances, a clever mystery, and a beautiful message about chasing after your dreams. Julieta was a character you easily fall in love with! As an oldest child, I very much identified with Julieta and her strong desire to support her family, and I loved her family dynamic and how they encouraged Julieta to carve her own path.

I can see Julieta, Lucas, Calvin, Ivy and Ryan’s characters resonating with young adult readers as they navigate this transitional stage of life as they are coming into their own and wanting to pursuit their dreams, while balancing outside pressure and expectations from family and friends.

Julieta’s development as she learned to use her voice, follow her heart, and write her own story was quite touching. This story was utterly charming!

Julieta was a great main character to root for! And though I loved the concept and all three boys were great, I found myself rooting for Mr. Nemesis, but I'm a sucker for enemies-to-lovers. Would recommend!! I also appreciated the LatinX rep. We see more representation happening in adult books, but I was happy to see it in more YA literature.

The cover 10/10 beautiful & captivating!! The story plot had a slow start but picked up beautifully and executed. If you are looking for a sweet romcom this is definitely for you! I loved the mystery of who was her Romeo it made reading this book captivating to see who it would be. I truly think people will love this book!

This romance book was very easy to read and short enough to finish in one sitting! I loved the characters and cute relationships, though it was a simple story. I definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a short, sweet book!!

A girl who wants to write a romance novels finds herself in the middle of one when she publishes her work online and finds that her rom com has a mysterious new contributor to the story... and there are three possible romeos to her Juliet. Julieta isn’t looking for her Romeo but she wants to write a romance novel. So when her class assignment has her publishing her work online she discovers that there is a mystery contributor to her story and she begins to have a relationship with said contributor. Suddenly there are three possible Romeos for her: her best friend’s brother, the boy next door, and her oldest friend. One of them could be her mystery writer right? As she gets to know these guys more she tries to figure out who could be the one but when she finally has the answer she’ll be shocked. While she is working on her own story and creating the perfect happy ending she’ll have to remember that in romance stories there are plot twist and her real life romance story will have the ultimate plot twist. This was a fun young adult rom com mystery read that I think people would enjoy.

4.75/5 stars! This book was a sweet YA romcom, but it was also a lesson in growing up, learning our voice, and making the best choices for ourselves. Julieta was adorable and really grew throughout this story. I'm a big fan of the enemy to lover trope, so I was rooting for Mr. Nemesis, and the way the romance was handled in this story was done beautifully.

I received an advance review copy for free through NetGalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily
