Lindsey Kelk’s delightful friends-to-lovers romance perfectly captures the charm of an awkward Brit navigating the glamour of Los Angeles. After a traumatic breakup, Phoebe Chapman flies to LA to seek solace in her high-flying tech exec sister Suzanne’s luxurious villa. An adorable meet-cute ensues when Phoebe runs into Suzanne’s handsome neighbour Efren Garcia. When Phoebe agrees to help set Efren up with Suzanne’s beautiful friend and personal trainer, Bel, it becomes increasingly hard for Phoebe to ignore her undeniable chemistry with Efren.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Kelk (On a Night Like This) draws fromCyrano de Bergeracin her sparkling latest. British greeting card writer Phoebe Chapman heads to L.A. to spend time with her sister, Suzanne—only for Suzanne to be called out of town for work, leaving Phoebe alone in her beautiful Hollywood Hills home. Determined to make the best of her situation, hopeless romantic Phoebe finds fast friends in her sister's charismatic personal trainer, aspiring actor Bel Johnson, and her gorgeous and gracious neighbor, Ren Garcia. Bel has a crush on Ren that renders her incapable of speech whenever he's around, so Phoebe offers to play matchmaker by writing love letters to Ren and signing them from Bel. As this ruse goes on, however, Phoebe realizes with horror that she's falling for Ren herself. Convinced that love is not in the cards for her after the painful end of a toxic relationship, Phoebe attempts to ignore her feelings. But which woman does Ren really love? Lindsey makes it easy to understand what both Phoebe and Bel see in hunky Ren, a kind soul who loves to bird-watch, and the love triangle refreshingly does not come at the expense of female friendship. This is a treat.
Customer Reviews
Good book
The book is really interesting, excellent story line.
Loved it
Had me laughing out loud and believing in love again.
Ok , but too try hard
Found that characters were a bit hard work to start with. With too many contemporary references and one liners that were too try hard and not funny.Felt like I was being fed advertising throughout the book . It was like scrolling through my phone with too much irrelevant info and current celeb references and events, especially with the main character of Phoebe. Found her character quite annoying at the beginning.Was going to give up reading it.
By the end of the story I was invested with her a bit more, especially with the relationship with her sister.
Have always enjoyed this authors books but this was not one of her best.
