A LibraryReads Pick
A hilarious love story about a disillusioned divorcée who agrees to let her children play matchmaker.
Columnist Anna Appleby has left her love life behind after a painful divorce. Who needs a man when she has two kids, a cat, and uncontested control of the TV remote? Besides, she’d rather be single than subject herself to the hell of online dating. But her office rival is vying for her column, and no column means no stable source of income. In a desperate attempt to keep her job, Anna finds herself pitching a unique angle: seven dates, all found offline, chosen by her children.
From awkward encounters to unexpected connections, Anna gamely begins to put herself out there, asking out waiters, the mailman, and even her celebrity crush. But when a romantic connection appears where she least expected it, will she be brave enough to take another chance on love?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this appealing enemies-to-lovers romance, bestseller Cousens (The Good Part) pairs a stressed-out, recently divorced mother of two with her hot new coworker. The new owner of Bath Living magazine wants to reach a younger audience, so writer Anna Appleby needs to up her game. Otherwise, the annoying (and distractingly attractive) Will Havers will get her column and perhaps her job, too. Anna reluctantly agrees to write about the dating scene in Bath, England, and accepts her boss's proposed hook: her preteen children will get to choose who she dates. The results are both awkward and amusing, sending Anna out with the morose father of one of their classmates, their waiter at a hip restaurant, and the forbidding next-door neighbor, among others. Will, with whom Anna grows closer the more they work together, begins to seem very appealing in contrast, especially as he proves himself to be unexpectedly kind. While the happily ever after is never in doubt, Cousens fills the path there with laughter and surprises, and strikes a good balance between romance and family life. This is a charmer.

Is She Really Going Out With Him
So good. I love how she fights her way back to the Kandi of loving- even the uncomfortable and not so great parts. We should all be so brave.
