A romance novel-obsessed social media influencer revisits her exes on her hunt for true love in this romantic comedy from the author of Set On You.
Romance book connoisseur Tara Chen has had her heart broken ten times by ten different men—all of whom dumped her because of her “stage-five clinger” tendencies. Nevertheless, Tara is determined to find The One. The only problem? Classic meet-cutes are dead, thanks to modern dating apps. So Tara decides to revisit her exes in hopes of securing her very own trope-worthy second-chance romance.
Boston firefighter Trevor Metcalfe will be the first to rush into a burning building but the last to rush into a relationship. Love just isn’t his thing. When his new roommate Tara enlists him to help her reconnect with her exes, he reluctantly agrees. But Tara’s journey is leading him to discover his own new chapter.
The more time they spend together, the more Tara realizes Trevor seems to be the only one who appreciates her authentic, dramatic self. To claim their happily ever after, can Tara and Trevor read between the lines of their growing connection?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A romance-obsessed social media star refuses to give up on her own happily ever after in Lea's captivating second Influencer rom-com (after Set on You). Bookstagrammer Tara Li Chen is "trash for a second-chance reunion trope," especially after witnessing the real-life rekindling of her Grandma Flo's love for a childhood sweetheart. So Tara decides to date her exes—all but her recent ex-fiancé—in hopes of finding her own second-chance romance. The experiment goes as hilariously badly as readers will expect, and Tara realizes she may be giving off "crazy ex-girlfriend" vibes. Meanwhile, her new roommate, Trevor Metcalfe, has a very different view of relationships—i.e, avoiding them at all costs and bringing home a different woman every night. He can't help but be sucked into Tara's chaotic love life, however, offering much-needed advice and a shoulder to cry on. Their developing friendship is one of the book's chief joys, with Lea making their dynamic feel tender, fun, and entirely believable. Then Trevor appears in one of Tara's livestreams, leading her followers to instantly start rooting for a relationship (or "room-ance") between them. The resulting romance is as sensitive and swoony as it is self-aware, playfully engaging popular romance tropes. This is a winner.

This book is Amazing! It’s perfect for a Valentine’s Day Read! I suggest reading this after Set On You, so you can the concept of Crystal’s and Scott’s love story! I love Tara’s and Trevor’s love story, and OH MY GOSH. This is so romantic just like Set On You! Amy Lea did it again she wrote an amazing 2nd book in The Influencer Series. I loved this Book!!
