Will it be l’amour the merrier or too haute to handle when rival reporters with a tangled history compete to tell the story of the year at a ritzy destination wedding?
Once upon a time, Walter was Hildy’s favorite person—until he crushed her teenage dreams. A decade later, she has a new beloved: the magazine she built from the ground up. Unfortunately, getting rid of Walter isn’t as easy as shedding her romantic illusions. He’s always around, vying for the juiciest scoops on the elite wedding circuit and provoking her into public displays that don’t scream “mature and sophisticated media maven.”
When Hildy scores exclusive access to the wedding of the season—a week-long parade of luxury in southern France—it’s a chance for her magazine to finally make its mark. Except Walter isn’t sitting at home crying; he’s right there in France, trying to steal Hildy’s story. Again.
Now it’s a head-to-head battle to see whose coverage will make it to print. The problem? Between the champagne and the chateaux, it’s easy to lose sight of the prize. Hildy knows better than to believe in fairy tales, but Walter is doing his best to convince her they could have a part deux.
In this gender-flipped twist on His Girl Friday, Hildy has seven days to prove she is totally over it, living her best life, and definitely not hung up on the past . . . or Walter.

Just finished a perfect comfort read and had to recommend it.
It’s an enemies-to-lovers romance about two rival wedding journalists sent to cover the same destination wedding. They start out sniping at each other over interviews, photo access, and whose story angle is better… but as they revisit the past they slowly melt the rivalry in the present.
What I loved most is that it’s genuinely fun. The setting is dreamy, the banter is sharp, and the stakes never feel stressful. It’s the kind of book where you know the ending will be happy, so you can just enjoy the ride. If you’re looking for something light, funny, and romantic — basically the literary equivalent of a vacation — this one is an easy recommendation. Perfect palate cleanser between heavier reads. 💕

I absolutely loved this book! It was so good. I feel like I was transported into another reality where I could really live in the characters point of views. Definitely a book I will be reading again in the summer, on the beach, with a drink in my hand. I loved it.

Sparkling fun, I couldn't put this book down. I adored the banter between Hildy and Walter, they were so funny. Even when Hildy is still holding her grudge against him, you can't help but smile every time they trade barbs. And while I don't like dual timelines for the same old tired reveal why they're not longer friends, the reasons felt believable. I also loved the supporting characters such as poor old Corinne who was stuck in the middle between the would-be lovers. The southern France setting also had me plotting my next trip. The article ending? Chefs kiss.
An effervescent and charming rom com. Loved it.
