This unfortunately fell a little flat for me and also I think it could use one more pass through the editor(s), I clocked a handful of (mostly negligible) errors while reading. The title is eye-catching and the cover is gorgeous imo.

This plot had so much potential unfortunately it failed to hook me in. I didn't feel engaged, invested, or interested. The story and characters just didn't feel relatable or interesting enough for me to want to care about them getting their HEA. The MMC and FMC individually just came off as super...pathetic.

I'm also not a big fan of the whole "revisit your exes and interview them to meet 'xyz' goal" trope and also the cheating trope. The cheating is super gray but even a whiff of a possible cheat is enough to shut my reader brain off and force me to not care about the rest of the entire book, which slogged on anyway.

Solid 3 stars, I'll reread when it's released just to see if this is a #moodreader problem

Thank you to NetGalley & Harlequin Trade Publishing for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review!

Thanks to netgalley and the publishers for this copy of the e-arc in exchange for a honest review.

Plot Twist follows romance writer Sophie who is having trouble finishing her second book due to her never actually being in love. As well as Dash, former teen heartthrob and Sophie's landlord and brother to Sophie's best friend.

Sophie decides to help her overcome her writers block to meet up with her exes and share on it tik tok after getting the encouragement for Dash.

Dash is struggling with maintaining his sobriety and has turned to crafting (mostly pottery) and has been posting to tiktok anonymously. With the dread of writing a speech for an upcoming event for his father, Sophie has offered to lead a had and write the speech for him.

I really loved reading Sophie's and Dash's love story, Erin is a great writer and I will be going back and reading her other books.

(Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for the ARC to review! All opinions are solely my own.)

Plot Twist features Romance author Sophie Lyon who has never actually been in love, and ex-teen heart-throb Dash Montrose. This is a quick, easy cozy romance but for me, personally, I wasn't all-in for these characters. I didn't think they were super relatable (maybe because of all the celebrity status/culture that surrounded them?)

This is cute, but I wasn't gripped or engaged.

Romance writer Sophie has never been truly in love. She is struck in her latest book and can't find a happily ever after for her characters. She decides to overcome her writer's block by reuniting with her exes and document it online. Her reclusive landlord, Dash Montrose—a former teen heartthrob—has social media all figured out and offers to help. He uses crafting to maintain his sobriety... Attractions start and complications arise....

Love Sophie and Dash together. Fun characters and love their chemistry together. Terrific banter. Everything I need in a rom-com.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

Placeholder. Will update when the Harper Collins union new contract is finalized. Thank you again to the publisher for the copy.
