Description

For fans of Sophie Kinsella and Josie Silver comes a new witty voice in women's fiction!

Zoë Frixos gets the whole love song thing. Truly, she does. As an editor at a major music magazine, it's part of her job description. But love? Let's just say Zoë's been a bit off-beat in that department. After falling hard for her best friend, Simon, at thirteen and missing every chance to tell him how she felt before he left town, Zoë came to one grand conclusion:

Love stinks.

Twenty years later, Simon is returning to London, newly single and as charming as ever, and Zoë vows to take her second chance. But, with an arrogant publicist out to challenge her career, Simon's perfect ex-girlfriend's sudden arrival, and her brother's big(ish) fat(ish) Greek wedding on the horizon, Zoë begins to wonder if, after all these years, she and Simon simply aren't meant to be.

What if, despite what all the songs and movies say, your first love isn't necessarily the right one? In the wake of a life-changing choice, Zoë must decide if she's right to be skeptical about love, or if it's simply time to change her tune...

I opened this book with low expectations of being surprised. From the description, I assumed I would be enjoying a romantic comedy about a skeptical music loving protagonist caught in between her complex past, present, and what she envisioned for her future. While I was right about my predictions in the plot, I was completely wrong about lowering expectations.

This was a whirlwind of a book that had me second guessing all of the characters' intent and actual feelings. I was completely enthralled and emotionally involved the entire time especially with all the information that is masterfully woven into the chapters as the story comes to a close.

Zoe isn't just likable or relatable, but she is someone that all of us strive to be. Dealing with her brother's wedding and family dynamics on top of her own complex romantic interests adds to her profile as one of the best romantic protagonists I've read in a long time. With the musical background creating intrigue and depth, I would recommend this to anyone.
