Emmy and Gabe are in the minority of MCs that where I liked both of them! Emmy is about her business and likes to keep her personal and work life separate. She’s one of a few women in a male dominated industry, and she wants to climb the ladder that seems to be going against her. Gabe is a former baseball player who had an accident that ended his playing career. He stayed close and worked in baseball on the business side. He’s a favorite around there and is a bit of a golden boy.
I found myself eager to get to the parts where Gabe and Emmy interact. I was less interested in the other relationships because I liked them so much! When they found out they were each other’s secret pen pal, it was like that scene in The Office when Michael meets Deangelo for the first time at the bar. It was sooooo funny to me.
This book read much like an actual romcom movie. There were so many coincidences back to back to back to back in the beginning that it was starting to be a bit much, but luckily the story moved on before I got bothered by it. The text messages were so cute though.
Thank you to NetGalley, Avon and Harper Voyager for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Ellie and Gabe are bitter rivals in their MLB baseball world of data analytics. They are both up for position of senior analyst and there is no love lost between the two. To make it worse, it's a total boys' club at the baseball team. Ellie is trying to make a name for herself, but it's tough hwen
Ellie gets a random text from an unknown number. "Last night was fun." She banters back and it's revealed that the mystery man was "wrong numbered" by a girl at the bar. They exchange easily back and forth in a relaxed way that surprises them both. As there fun and flirty exchanged become more intimate, should they meet up? Her ex didn't understand her laser focus on her job and broke up with her over it. Will this guy be the same? Will Gabe stay out of her way?
This enemy to lovers was tropey in all the best ways was oh so fun! I love the data analysis, MLB subplot! This one comes out in June. Thank you Avo n and Netgelley for the advanced review.

Loved this! Read it pretty much start to finish-- co- workers do not like each other, then fate intervenes Emmy gets a text from a stranger one morning who rapidly becomes the favorite part of her day which gives her something to look forward to especially in her male dominated role at a baseball team where she is up for a promotion against her arch nemesis Gabe- with her little sisters destination wedding coming up she needs a date - she's been texting the stranger for weeks could he be her plus one she gives it a chance after her last heartbreak and what happens is a huge shock but will love win out or will she be left heart broken again with a a great family dynamic and fun bestie and a couple of fun coworkers weaved in this was a great book highly recommend!

Last Night Was Fun by Holly Michelle is a lighthearted yet emotionally resonant exploration of love, self-discovery, and the complexities of modern relationships. The book's strength lies in its relatable characters, particularly the protagonist, whose internal struggles and vulnerabilities are portrayed with sincerity. While the dialogue is sharp and engaging, at times the plot feels overly familiar, leaning on well-worn tropes that fail to offer much new insight into the genre. The pacing can also be uneven, with certain sections dragging before the narrative picks up momentum again. Despite these flaws, Michelle’s writing has an undeniable charm, and her ability to capture the nuances of romantic connection makes the book an enjoyable, if not groundbreaking, read.

This was everything I needed in a contemporary romance novel! The characters were fun and the banter was great. The side characters were adorable. Definitely had "You've Got Mail" vibes and I loved it.
Many thanks to NetGalley for sharing this novel’s digital reviewer copy with me in exchange for my honest thoughts.

I really wanted to like this book. I think it has a lot of potential but maybe could have gone another round of editing. In the beginning there were some really strange similes ("his comment speared her like a cocktail umbrella through a wedge of pineapple") and it was strange. There were a lot of loose ends, or more likely things that were written that didn't have to do with anything and shouldn't have been there. I think this author has potential, but I more editing of the book would have made it stronger in my opinion.
