The Hookup Plan

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY ٢ مايو ٢٠٢٢

Rochon charms in her multilayered, heart-stealing final Boyfriend Project rom-com (after The Dating Playbook). When hotshot pediatric surgeon London Kelley bumps into her childhood nemesis, Drew Sullivan, at their 15-year high school reunion in Austin, Tex., their chemistry propels them into the cushy bed of Drew's hotel suite. Later, she learns that hedge fund manager Drew is in town to conduct an audit aimed at saving the hospital where London works. Though London has sworn to herself that their connection would only ever lead to hookups, Drew, who's lusted after London since their high school days, is determined to make London see how great a relationship could be. Used to being ignored by her narcissist father, feisty but vulnerable London has low expectations when it comes to men—and Drew, a millionaire with a heart of gold and eyes only for her, may be just the thing to overcome them. Rochon's skillful handling of her lead couple's sexual fast-burn and emotional slow-burn, coupled with her well-rounded characters, make it impossible not to fall in love with this smart story. Returning readers will be especially delighted to be reunited one last time with London's besties, Taylor and Samiah. This is a worthy finale.
