................................................
Lizzy Chung has her life mapped out:
* Become a lawyer. Check.
* Join a prestigious law firm. Check.
* Make partner. In progress.
If all goes to plan, she'll be checking off that last box in a couple of years, making her parents proud, and living a successful, fulfilled life in L.A. One thing that isn't part of her plan? Passing out from a panic attack during a pivotal moment in her career.
Lizzy decides that what she needs is a place to recharge, and where better than the small California town where she spent her childhood summers with her best friend, Jack Park.
Now that Lizzie is back, Jack has three weeks to spend with the girl of his dreams - while concealing his decades-long crush on her. Something that becomes increasingly difficult when he agrees to help Lizzie revamp the local bookstore.
Romance amongst the dusty shelves and books may not be in Lizzy's plan,
but could this new page lead her to the love story she never expected?

'Ooh I enjoyed this one. A great love/hate at the start and its just blossoms . . . the words and story just flow off page, it feels seamless and delightful' NetGalley review
'A perfect balance of impeccable wit, laugh out loud hilarity, and off the charts chemistry. A Sweet Mess is a sinfully decadent romantic comedy! HELENA HUNTING
'A rich, vibrant romance that's a feast for all the senses!' LAUREN BLAKELY
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Best friends realize their feelings for each other in this dry romance from Lee (The Dating Dare). Los Angeles attorney Elizabeth Chung heads on a three-week vacation to the sleepy town of Weldon to decompress with her childhood friend, Weldon local Jack Park, after a trial leaves her feeling drained. She rents a room attached to a small bookstore, excited to escape into romance novels and reconnect with Jack. But unbeknownst to Lizzy, Jack has loved her since they were kids, and their sudden proximity makes it harder than ever to hide his true feelings. This doesn't matter for long, as soon Lizzy realizes that her own feelings have also deepened into something more. But with their friendship on the line and the long distance between their two homes, they must decide if it's worth risking what they already have for a chance to build something even better. While Lee admirably immerses her audience in Korean American culture, the cookie-cutter characters and lack of any real conflict results in a predictable romance that falls flat. This one misses the mark.

Booked on a feeling
A sweet little friends to lovers romance. Easy to read and I loved the Asian representation that was so casually part of the story. Their chemistry and spice was good, I think there are other books in this series too, as I think I saw a book about his sister.
Dual POV, low-led spice, 18+
