I liked this cute and easy read about a couple who meet because of a typo in an email address. I liked the settings (Scotland and an Antarctic research boat) and enjoyed the emails as a way for the couple to get to know each other. It did feel a bit long before they actually met in person and I might have liked more of the story to fall after that vs before. But I was entertained and would read more from Emily Kerr.

Great characters in this slightly unusual plot. Both the main characters of Amy and Cameron seemed totally believable although some aspects of the story less so. Amy Cameron lives in Edinburgh working at a theatre as a marketing manager which has a steadily declining audience due to the poor choice of acts chosen by her boss. She lives a solitary life as more and more of her friends drop by the wayside, getting married and having families. When she receives an email, clearly not intended for her, from a gallery asking her to produce an exhibition of her work she sets about trying to find the intended recipient.. After a lot of research she eventually finds the person in question and asks them to let her know how things turn out. Cameron, a wildlife photographer is currently on a trip to Antarctica. He is pleased to receive Amy's email and they begin c0rresponding with each other until a real friendship begins between the two of them. The trouble is Amy lies to Cameron that she is a concert violinist instead of working in a theatre. Being a concert violinist was Amy's dream until a critic condemned her performance, shattering Amy's confidence. From that point she did not pick up her violin and put her dream's of success to one side. I enjoyed this book although some of the descriptions of the Antarctic wildlife were a bit drawn out but the overall plot was unusual and captured my imagination. Thanks to NetGalley for allowing me to read this book in return for an honest review.

Loved the quirky title of this one. Emily has penned an excellent, well planned book with lovely characters and an intriguing storyline.

This was fine. It was a cute premise and I enjoyed the start of the book a lot more than the middle and conclusion. There was just too much miscommunication and I didn't really buy the chemistry at all between the two main characters. Also, the emails got a bit redundant and tiring pretty fast. There is only so much tripe about penguins one can read. Despite my best efforts I didn't really empathize with Amy or Cameron and whilst this book wasn't 'bad', I can't say I really enjoyed it.

This was okay. I think it would have been better if it was dual pov. I don't feel like we really know anything about cameron besides the fact that he likes animals. There wasn't really a hint of a romantic relationship between them for the longest time.

I received an arc through netgalley.

I really wanted to love this one, I just found it a little too cheesy and predictable for me. It was totally a me thing though, I’d still buy it for a friend!

Sadly this was a DNF for me

I really wanted to love this book, however I couldnt get into it

I love books where characters first meet through email/text/phone calls etc and you can slowly see the attraction and them falling in love

My main issue with this book is that Amy spends a lot of the time lying to Cameron about what her job is, although she felt bad about it, she wasnt doing anything to change it and it just got annoying to me. Also this is a very slow burn, i got just over 50% before i dnfed and theres been zero talk of attraction to each other or any real flirting or anything to get me infested in their relationship, slow burns really arent my thing and this just wasnt doing it for me

- she accidentally gets sent an email meant for him, so she tracks him down and forwards it onto him and they start a friendship
- 1st person, single pov

Thank you to NetGalley and One More Chapter for the arc - all opinions are my own

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3/5
Tropes:
🎻 Mistaken Identity
🎻 Online Romance

After an email meant for Cameron.A is sent to A.Cameron, Amy forwards the email to its intended inbox and then follows the mistaken identity…

Amy is working for a struggling venue and trying to navigate her social life and professional life as best she can. I found Amy to be quite a relatable character as she undergoes not being appreciated at work and then getting ignored (more like ghosted) from two of her “friends” in her social circle. I found Amy’s accidental exaggeration of her life to fit in very relatable (who doesn’t went to seem like they’ve got their life together) and I enjoyed her and Cass navigating their changing lives together in the background and pushing each other out of their comfort zones.

Cameron and Amy had a really nice chemistry in their emails and I enjoyed reading them against the backdrop of Amy’s failing professional life, they were like little boosts of serotonin when things seemed hopeless. My only wish Is that we had more Amy and Cameron chemistry in perso, as while I am a bit of a hopeless romantic,, I did also feel like having more time with them after they meet would’ve made me enjoy their story more.

Overall, a nice warm mood read that I enjoyed against the backstop of a rainy day which turned out very fitting to the story. Thank you NetGalley, HarperCollins UK, One More chapter and Emily Kerr for this ARC

Great descriptions of the Antarctica and the surrounding area, whilst on board a ship.
A cute and an easy read.
A misdirected email then a redirected email forms a friendship between two strangers. Through the pages we see how their lives change via the Internet.

Amy Cameron is single and works at Edinburgh Variety Theatre as marketing and communications manager. Cameron is a photographer working on an Antarctic Expedition. Amy accidentally receives an email that should have been sent to a photographer with a similar email address. Amy searches photographic sites on the Internet to find a photographer called Cameron and forwards the email.

I loved this. Amy was lonely and unhappy with her life. She used to be a musician but after a very bad case of stage fright and a bad review she stopped playing her violin.

Cameron replies to Amy and keeps sending emails describing his exiting life photographing penguins.

Amy looks forward to his emails and replies, making out that her life is more interesting than it really is.

This was a fun love story about friendships, families, musicians and photographers. Set in Edinburgh in the present time with the backdrop of an old Victorian music hall where the staff try to find a way to encourage audiences to shows held by Edinburgh Variety.
Lots of humorous situations. A good twist at the end. Thank you NetGalley and One More Chapter for a chance to read this e-Book. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

I’m clearly in the minority here, based on the reviews lol, but I actually really enjoyed this book!

It did take me a little bit to get into the book towards the beginning, but I wasn’t even halfway through the book before I was hooked.

I loved reading Amy & Cam’s (sorry, Cameron’s) email exchanges.

The MC’s hadn’t even met, and I was still rooting for them both.

The book was a very easy and quick read, and I found myself not wanting to put it down at times.

I will say I wish we got more scenes with both MC’s once they had met.

For those of you that like your “clean” books as well, there’s no spice in this one at all. But I honestly didn’t even miss it. This is one of those books that works perfectly without it.

Don’t take all the negative reviews to heart, and give it a chance for yourself. You won’t know if you like it unless you try it.

Thank you to NetGalley and Harper Collins for the eARC, I really enjoyed this book!

Amy and Cameron have never met, but have very similar emails. When Amy gets an email about a gallery opportunity she finds who she thinks it was meant to be sent to, Cameron. Cameron is an adventurous guy on a boat traveling the Antarctica taking pictures of penguins and whales. Amy is a marketing manager for a failing theater who has big dreams of being a famous musician. They get to know each other through emails and phone calls, or do they?

This was a very interesting book that shows the reality of online dating and how hard it can be to actually meet someone online when you don't know how truthful they are being. I will say that the romance of this book is barely anything due to the nature of the communication only being online. I can also unfortunately relate a ton to Amy where she feels like everyone else has it together and she is being left behind. Her friends were making me upset during this story because my friends did this to me, very unfortunately relatable. I do love that both took the time to improve themselves based on the lies they were telling and followed their own dreams.

thank you to netgalley and the publisher for kindly providing me an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!!

I apologize, but I have never DNF a NetGalley book that I can remember. I was expecting a romance, but I got a very boring story about two people named Cameron, one a girl, Amy Cameron, living in Scotland, and the other a nature explorer with the first name of Cameron who is exploring Antarctica. They meet online via a botched e-mail and grow closer via boring emails. None of it made much sense to me, and I knew by the second chapter it would not be a book for me. I stopped and tried it again, but I am sorry. I couldn’t get through this one.

I will not post an online review. Thanks for the ARC.

I'm torn between saying 2.5 or 3 stars, so for ratings, I'll give it 3 stars.

The description of this book really drew me in, especially the concept with the You Got Mail vibes it promised, but unfortunately, this story fell flat as a romance. I was completely bored with the slow pace (it took a while for me to finish the book since I could only read it for short periods of time). Nothing about the emails seemed romantic, it was more about friendship-level conversations then add in the fact that Amy and Cameron don’t even meet in person until almost at the end of the book. How was this a romance? I honestly felt they should’ve just stayed as friends as I couldn’t really picture them as a romantic couple. I found the end abrupt and not really being a fan of Amy, I do wish we would’ve gotten to know Cameron more or maybe had his POV instead of just Amy’s the entire time. Maybe it would’ve helped the story more. I’m not going to say don’t read this book, but I am saying go into it with an open mind that this isn't the romance I was expecting, even at one point I hoped for it to be a hallmark-style romance but it just never got there; you might like it more than I did.

A very cute book. More of a coming of age than a romance. But both situations are done really well. I loved that the book was set in Scotland too. Now I plan to read the author’s earlier works. It was that good.

I thought this was pretty cute. I liked the characters and I thought the writing was great. I have been kind of experimenting on these sort of books to see what I like and what I don't.

The premise of a meet-cute with a email pen pal really drew me to this story. Unfortunately, it was a meh story with mean girls. The Typo need more romance, and less bad friends and emails.

This was a cute Scottish romance some parts were a little slow but it was an enjoyable read.

Amy feels like she is at a dead end. All of her friends are pairing off and the theatre that she works at is on the verge of closing. When she receives an email about an art exhibit she knows immediately it is not for her. She scours the internet until she finds the correct person. This starts up an unlikely relationship. However feeling unaccomplished Amy embellishes her life just a bit. What will a little catfishing hurt anyway right??? She does not believe she will actually ever meet him anyway.

The first part of the book I could not wait for the responses from Cameron. Amy’s story in the beginning was slow and not very interesting. She was very self deprecating. However, as her story progressed my feelings changed. As Amy started to develop feeling for Cameron, she wanted to be the person that he now thinks she is. She starts to develop confidence in herself and really starts to grow. At this point I found myself wanting more of her story and less of the letters from Cameron.

I did like the ending. I thought everything worked out well in the end. That is what made this a four star as opposed to a 3. There were some slow parts but it did pick up and everyone got the HEA in the end.

I was more than 60% in, but I just couldn't continue. Although pitched as a romance, I failed to see any romantic elements. It doesn't qualify as a slow burn because the emails exchanged between FMC and MMC were merely friendly, lacking any flirting or spark. The correspondence consisted solely of informational exchanges between them. While I appreciated the FMC's efforts to make changes in her life, that was the extent of it. I truly wanted to love this story because it sounded promising, but unfortunately, it didn't resonate with me.

Thank you Harper Collins UK and NetGalley for the ARC!

This was a quick, fun read! It was just what I was looking for with a bit of intrigue and a lot of swoon worthy sighs!!

Excited to see what else this author has!
