This is my first book by this author, and it won't be my last.

Autumn is a concert pianist with chronic pain and a traumatic past, when a new pain in her backside arrives -Elijah.

Elijah is a hot games developer that moves into Autumns house, without her consent. They get closer and closer, and they fall for each other. All the while, there's a secondary part to the plot, the mystery of who keeps trying to remind Autumn of her past.

I didn't guess the ending, however I think this is because the author added red herrings to make you assume it was one of the characters.

Overall I really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading Kates future books.

This was a very cute romcom with a hint of mystery as well! If you love a he falls first, enemies to lovers, forced proximity and a bit of spice book, then this book is the one for you!

Tried to get through the first chapters but it didn't feel believable enough. Premise is great and cover is gorgeous

I do love a short romance book but in this case everything felt rushed. It went from enemies to lovers so fast it almost gave me whiplash. Eli was a golden retriever and I love that he fell first. On the other hand I didn't care for Autumn as a character. In most genres I am fine with not loving the main character but in a romance I need that connection. I feel that a lot of time was being wasted on information that did not add to the book. The suspense subplot was unnecessary. Not every book needs a crazy side plot and this is an example of one that could do without. I think that if the pages wasted on it were put into the enemies to lovers plot line the book would be way stronger because of it.

I like it.
BUT
I don't think Elijah should have just busted into her house and moved her crap out and fought with her about it. That is some nonsense I would have called the cops over.

When I look back and think about my reading experience for this book, i find it comforting. The humour in this book was humouring and that love was so in the air!

Picked this book for the mental health representation and it didnโ€™t disappoint. Ms Perfectly Fine is in fact not perfectly fine. The messiness of it all and the big dark secret reveal tied together with the romance and friendship was perfect.
Spice level not too spicy, which is great for the balance of tension that is written. The spice that is written is done well and tasteful. This book had me running back for more, in a good way, and kept me up well past my bedtime to find out what happens next.

This book hits so many amazing tropes in one neat package. We love a sunshine man who falls first and loves harder than her. Forced proximity always makes the tension sizzle and an element of suspense brings out that protector trope. This has everything I love in one book-perfection!

Cute and engaging. I was most interested in the chronic pain subplot and thought it was executed well. Also, Brinkley was absolutely adorable and obviously should be the main character. A fun one with a bit more depth.

I liked this, but didn't love it as much as I wanted to. I think the fact that it was marketed as grumpy (her) x sunshine (him) had my hopes up, but they were easily let down when I started reading and did not see her & him as grumpy/sunshine. I did like Autumn and Elijah as individuals but for some reason I wasn't super connected to or feeling their romance. It was still a good book with really good chronic illness rep which was nice to see!

Many thanks to Netgalley for giving me this ARC in exchange for my honest review!

This book was just okay for me, I didn't really fall in love with any of the characters .Everything felt so rushed and forced with the whole strangers to lovers, the book unlike it's title was just fine.

Thought of Swift every time I picked this book up! Definitely was a fun romance book. I like reading about characters that have jobs you don't see in your immediate circle in the real world. Sometimes you just like the female character so much more!

I wanted to love this book but for some reason we just did't click. I felt the story line was rushed at times and some aspects seem to have been just thrown in. Overall the story was ok!

I was really excited to read this book at first. However, as I go through 5 chapters I just cannot get it and I cannot finish this.

This is another book I wanted to like so badly, but ended up not wanting to finish it because of the narrator. The blurb and the tropes sounded VERY interesting. But when I picked it up I just couldn't get into it.

I received this book as an ARC from @netgalley and it was written by @callaghanwriter. Thank you so much for providing me with this wonderful story! ๐Ÿ’œ

I loved every page of this book. It starts as your typically grumpy-sunshine relationship between the main characters, but their relationship development is so adorable and also heartfelt. It was nice to read about a main character with chronic pain, since I can relate to that myself and it isnโ€™t really a topic commonly used in books.

Okay, so the story is about Autumn and Elijah. Autumn has been renting a house for years. Then one day, out of nowhere, this utterly happy-go-lucky guy shows up with his stuff and moves in with Autumn without her knowing at first. This ofcourse doesnโ€™t give them a great start in getting to know each other. Since Autumn has had a pretty though time the past years since her accident, sheโ€™s really attached to her privacy and all. That obviously doesnโ€™t work well when all of a sudden some stranger comes to live with you.

This handsome stranger Elijah, is working on a game to put his own business on the map. But he has this deal which means he has to live with Autumn for a while. Since Elijah doesnโ€™t just accept the fact that Autumn treats him like an intruder of her privacy, the war between them starts and they keep annoying each other wherever they can. But as time goes by and a lot of well, mysterious things happen, they both understand their relationship is in need of a change. But what happens if that relationship changes in something they both didnโ€™t expect to happen?

I loved everything about this book and loved the plottwists in it. I could really recommend this book to anyone looking for a funny, adorable book that still has a bit of mystery in it. I gave the book 5 stars! ๐Ÿ’œ
