For a fun and lighthearted romance read, you will definitely feel some emotions as well. We follow along with Jess and she navigates her life being changed by a family crisis. It was great to see her have some growth in such a short time. The characters were enjoyable and the book flowed smoothly.

Well, I absolutely loved this book. This is my first book by this author and was happy to see she has a backlist I can dive into this weekend. What I loved most about this book is the subject matter. This is a romantic comedy, but it also deals with a serious life situation (in this case it is Jess, the main character, who is suddenly forced into a caretaker role for a family member). On the surface, this is heavy stuff, but it adds to the story, gives it credibility and actually lends well to the "rom" and "com" components. I call this REAL LIFE, and I am here for it. I found the writing strong, the characters had depth and warmth and were funny at times, and the story flowed nicely. Too many books on the market are just not believable to me. This one spoke to me in content, but also the writing. Very pleased to find this book and author. Thank you to the publisher, author and Net Galley for the read and 5 stars from me.

Just Like That was exactly what it promised to be - a perfect feel good romance. As someone who has worked in events in the past I had so much fun reading about Jess’ work and how she was navigating it. In this book there were several times where I wanted to grab her by the shoulders and shake her asking what she was thinking as she avoided telling Nick things during their relationship. But that frustration paid off with a super sweet and well written ending. I loved that Jess made mistakes that seems incredibly human and realistic for a person who is going through a life change like becoming a caregiver for her brother.

I loved Nick as a mmc, I always love a grumpy but is actually a sweetheart on the inside male lead. And I loved the world that was built in this book. I want to go to this fictional wild life park and be friends with the staff.

Overall this book was a really sweet closed door romance and a wonderful pick me up.

Thank you to NetGalley, Canelo and Nina Kaye for providing me a e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

"Just Like That" by Nina Kaye is a heartwarming and captivating story that delves into themes of family, career, and unexpected connections. Jess is on top of her game in her events management job in Edinburgh, with a promising career ahead of her. However, her world comes crashing down when her brother has a sudden stroke, and she steps in as his carer without hesitation. But her boss doesn't understand her situation and demotes her to managing low-end events, including a small animal park in need of fundraising.

What follows is a delightful tale of Jess's journey as she navigates her new role and clashes with the head keeper, Nick, who is frustrated with her squeamishness. However, as they work together to save the animals of East Lothian Wildlife Park, they find common ground despite their differences.

Kaye's writing is engaging and filled with humor, making this a delightful and enjoyable read. The characters are well-developed and relatable, with Jess's challenges as a caretaker and Nick's desire for a baggage-free life adding depth to the story. The setting of the animal park adds a unique and charming element to the plot, making it an interesting backdrop for the unfolding romance between Jess and Nick.

Overall, "Just Like That" is a heartwarming tale that explores the complexities of family, career, and unexpected connections. It's a story of resilience, finding common ground, and overcoming challenges, with a touch of humor and romance that will leave readers captivated until the very end. Highly recommended for fans of contemporary romance and heartwarming stories with relatable characters.

Very much looking forward to reading, acquisition, and sharing Just Like that with our readers. I will be sharing a full review and thoughts, but what immediately struck me was the premise about being a caregiver for someone that had a stroke and the profound effects it has on one’s life. I was a cared for my father for over 10 years when he suffered a massive stroke so I can deeply relate to our protagonists plight. I cannot wait to share more soon and I’m so happy there is a book like this out their especially for us young caregivers to feel less alone.
