This was a cute second chance at love story. I haven’t read any books by this author but I thought this was a fun story. I liked how Jilly and Levi found love again and had to work through some things in order to be together. I liked that they worked through their fears and were able to make their relationship works. I am interested in reading other books by her.

I received a complimentary book from publishers, publicists, and or authors.  A review was not required and all opinions and ideas expressed are my own.

The connection between them was not shown, I can sort of feel/see it from their younger years, but not currently. It very much seemed like they just jumped in because "I wanted her/him in high school.". There was never any current conversation about real life things. I did actually enjoy her daughter and that small storyline but everything else was pretty blah.

Thank you to St. Martins Press and Netgalley for access to an e-arc.

Sophie Sullivan writes a great small town romance. This one has the added bonus of second chance and brother’s best friend. I really enjoyed my return trip to Get Lost Lodge!

I ended up mostly reading this in audio. Gregory Abbey did a great job but I do kind of wish there had been dual narration.

This is a cute second-chance romance. Jillian had a crush on Levi since high school, and when Levi comes back to town, sparks fly. But there are real-life complications - Jillian is divorced and has an awesome little girl, Levi is estranged from his father, and they are both busy with careers. I liked the setting of this, I liked the characters (especially Ollie and Levi), and it was a fun read!

This was really delightful! I really loved the setting, and the family aspects of this. I loved watching Levi find his dream as well! Jillian had a lot to overcome, and I enjoyed watching that journey, and watching Levi and Jillian grow closer. Also, her daughter was delightful and a great addition to the story. I love a great, happy, dramatic ending and this one had it!

Jillian and Levi grew up together in Smile, Levi being her brothers' best friend, and they both had secret crushes on each other. Neither acted on it because Jillian was too shy, and for Levi, she was off limits as a friend's sister. Years have gone by, Levi is back home after becoming a culinary success and determined to start something with Jillian after realizing the spark never went away. But Jillian had responsibilities now after divorcing her husband and taking custody of their young daughter. Can she really start something with a man who might not stick around?
This was a cute and cozy romance between long time friends. There was more drama between exes and family and the small town than there was between the two MCs. I love Levi's patience with Ollie in the kitchen. He was so sweet with her! And he was so confident in their relationship from the beginning even when Jillian was having so many doubts. I like how he stood up to his awful father and put himself first.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advance copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I unfortunately just could not get into this one and could not connect with the characters or the plot. I might try again another time because I am not sure what the issue was could just be that I have been in a reading slump lately so something has to be amazing your capture and keep my interest. And sadly this wasn’t that right now.

It’s hard for me to write reviews about the Kellers, it feels like talking about family. Especially after reading Jillian’s book so many times now. Jillian and Ollie deserve the best in life, so when Levi comes into the picture you want to be excited… but cautiously so.

If anything… I wish I could look at the world the way Ollie does, with positivity, passion, and the ability to give everything. She clearly gets it from her mother!! If anyone crushed them… fiction or not, I would find them. . . The world needs more of the Kellers!

I love a fun romance and that is exactly what I got with Get Lost With You! This small town romance was fun and sweet and so low drama- which is exactly what I need in my life right now. Jillian and her sweet daughter Ollie have a great relationship and Levi joining their family unit was the perfect addition.

This series is adorable. I love the Keller family. Ollie is a gem of a kid and her scenes made me laugh out loud multiple times.

Tropes: childhood friends to lovers, second chance romance, small town

I love a childhood friends to lovers trope. This one just seemed to move super fast. I never felt a true burn (slow or otherwise) to make it feel like they were falling for each other. They just already were. And the idea that Levi had a crush on her when he was 18 and she was 15 or whatever, did not feel super believable.

But I did enjoy the story. Jillian is careful with her heart and Levi is determined to break through the walls and show her that he's there for her and Ollie. The book has Hallmark vibes and I read it with a smile on my face almost the entire time.
3.75 rounded up to 4.

Cute and escapist, with great banter and a cozy small-town setting. The romance unfolded sweetly, though it felt a bit light on conflict. Still, the charm was undeniable and it gave me exactly the lighthearted story I was hoping for.

3.5/5

This was a cute, fast paced romance read. I enjoyed seeing Presley and Beckett again, I'm curious if there will be a third book for Grayson. it does move very quickly, so if you don't like that it may not be for you, but Jillian and Levi are precious!

Jillian Keller took the long route to her best life, but is now happily settled in her hometown of Smile, raising her little girl alone while helping her brother run Get Lost Lodge. A lover of structure and routine, she doesn’t need anything, or anyone, disrupting her carefully curated life.

After chasing and achieving his culinary dreams, Levi Bright realizes he’s still missing something. Something he can’t find in a big city. Returning home to Smile, he intends to build a different future for himself that includes mending fences with his dad, reconnecting with friends, and creating elevated comfort food for a town he loves.

When Levi and Jilly run into each other one day in Smile, once requited feelings that never had a chance to bloom as teens flare between them immediately. Jaded from her past, Jilly is cautious and convinced that she can handle being just friends, as the two have to work closely together to prepare for Get Lost’s official summer opening, spending time together, camping, laughing, kayaking, and reminiscing. But when her brother hires sweet, funny, ridiculously hot Levi as the new chef at the lodge, and she and Ollie are getting more attached, things are moving more quickly than she anticipated--and Jilly has been hurt before. If she wants to be head over heels in love, she'll have to learn that the past doesn’t always repeat itself. Sometimes, it just leads you where you’re meant to be.

Love, Naturally, Book 1, in Sophie Sullivan's small town romance series, was a huge hit for me last year, so I was excited to get an advanced copy of Get Lost with You, the follow up. I didn't read the synopsis and went in not knowing which character it would follow and was happy when I learned it was Jilly.

Told through alternating POVs, it was satisfying to be back in Smile and I continued to adore the cast of characters. I was initially interested in Jilly and Levi's story, but I did feel like the pacing was off and lagged through parts in the middle. While I cannot say it offers anything particularly groundbreaking, a lot of the small elements did work for me - the small town resort setting, fantastic secondary characters, relatable main characters, and the inclusion of food. The plot was entertaining, yet I will say as whole it lacked the amount of depth I desperately craved.

Get Lost With You was an entertaining and fun read, although not one that will stick with me long term. I certainly didn't like it as much as Book 1, but I am glad I picked it up and absolutely loved the relationship between Levi and Ollie. I will continue to pick up Sophie Sullivan's books when I am looking for something light and heartfelt and look forward to the next book in this series.

"You can protect yourself all you want, but living in a way that doesn’t allow you to get hurt isn’t really the kind of life you want to live, is it?"

I really enjoy Sophie's writing and this was a fun and enjoyable romance. I am a sucker for brother's best friend and this was another hit.

I’m a sucker for a good Rom-Com, and this book was a hit for me! I fell in love with the characters, both separately in their own ways, but more so as wanting to cheer them on as getting together. The way the author built the town setting along with the supporting characters was done so well, it made me wish a town like Smile actually existed for me to visit. This was just the breathe of fresh air I needed when wanting to find a cute and lightweight love story.

If you love books that give you hallmark vibes but with a sprinkle of spice this series is for you. I’ve enjoyed every book I’ve read from Sophie Sullivan and this one did not disappoint.
Jillian is now a single mom working at their families lodge. She loves her job but when her crush from the past comes back to town she finds herself wondering whether she can give love a second chance.
I really enjoyed this book and can’t wait for the next one !

This charming story has everything I crave in a cozy contemporary romance—second chances, emotional growth, small-town vibes, and a lovable single mom who's just trying to protect her peace... until Levi Bright walks back into town and gently (and deliciously) upends it all.
Jillian Keller is a woman you root for immediately—strong, structured, and a devoted mom to her daughter Ollie. She's been burned before, and now she's built a life that feels safe and settled. Enter Levi: former teen crush turned city-slicker chef, now returned to Smile to heal old wounds and start fresh. The chemistry between Jilly and Levi is instant and electric, but the slow burn between them is handled with a deft touch—sweet with just a kiss of heat, and always emotionally grounded.
I loved the setting of Smile and the community around Get Lost Lodge—it’s the kind of place you want to visit and never leave. Their shared moments—camping, cooking, laughing, kayaking—are woven in with just enough tension and backstory to make the romance feel earned and deeply satisfying.
This book is a reminder that the heart doesn't forget where it once felt safe. And sometimes, home isn’t just a place—it’s a person.
If you enjoy books with second chances and love that’s worth the risk, then this is the perfect read.
I received a complimentary copy from NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving my review.

Okay so as much as I love a good second chance romance and friends to lovers, this one was just “okay” to me. Like the first one, to me this just felt like something was missing. I just wanted more from it. The story was cute, don’t get me wrong. But just felt like something was missing. Like the first one I did like the story, I liked the characters but I felt like the story was moving a little slow and at times I found it a little corny. I also felt like the chemistry was a little lack luster. I will say though that Levi really did break my heart a little at times with how obsessed he was with Jilly😭

Sophie Sullivan will always be a auto-buy author for me. I just love reading all her stories. I was so happy to be back in Smile and Get Lost Lodge. This time the story was around Jillian and her daughter Ollie. Jilly finds out her childhood crush is back in town and she is so excited. The only problem is that Levi Bright is friends with her brothers. There was a guy ode out in place that there was no dating sisters. But Jilly and Levi overcame that and the result was a sweet love story.

I really, really enjoyed this book and learning more about Jilly and Levi’s past. I really hope there will be another book about their brother Gray as well.

I recommend this book to all those who enjoy closed door romances.

Sophie Sullivan is an auto-buy author for me. I look forward to her new books every year. This small-town, second-chance romance was a perfect read. I loved Levi and how all-in he was with Jillan and her daughter. There were also some family issues that each character was dealing with, and some past hurts that they needed to address to live happily ever after. I loved this one!
