Oh this was so lovely! An absolute gem of a book.

Anna is divorced, a mum of two and a columnist, and she has lost herself. She finds herself pitching a series of columns where she will date someone suggested by her children. Put well and truly out of her comfort zone, she learns a lot about herself and the people in her life.

I loved this and couldn’t put it down. A really enjoyable, easy read which would be perfect for a cosy Sunday afternoon or a warm sun lounger somewhere hot!

This was a fun romantic story about a woman looking for change and a man who is fawning over her all bundled up in the work place romance one bed trope and long sexual looks from across the work place followed by a lil escapade at work. This was so fun and entertaining i would love to read more from this author in the future.

Sophie Cousens is one of the most consistent fiction writers out there today. She knows what she does, and she does it bloody well. You settle in knowing you're ready for something relatable, a little silly and completely romantic and she never fails to deliver something totally fun,

Actual rating 4.5.

Absolutely LOVED this gorgeous romcom, mostly because Anna is just such a warm and relatable main character and I enjoyed the fact that she was a little older with children and a divorce behind her. Will and the many other men who come into her life were also compelling, and the dating column angle was great fun! Plus I loved the hilarious Google searches at the end of each chapter, many of which felt all too relatable! Definitely one of those great reads to make you laugh, cry and swoon.

This is my first book of Sophie’s, I found her writing style to be really easy and enjoyable to read. I loved all the stories of the different dates and all the different personalities brought to life. I was rooting for the main characters the whole way through and they were very well suited to each other.

Read and reviewed in exchange for a free copy from NetGalley. I have enjoyed Cousens' previous books, and this was equally enjoyable. Anna was an entertaining protagonist and the plot was engaging.

I love Sophie Cousens and I love this book! I'd go as far as to say it's one of my favourite Sophie Cousens stories and chapter 18 in particular had me belly laughing in public. I'd love to see a TV or film adaptation, because I fell in love with the story. Can't wait for the next book!

What a fun read! I adored the will they, won’t they aspect of this book.

I loved the fact that each chapter began with a list of Google searches relating to the previous chapter - such a great touch!

Thank you so much to Hodder & Stoughton for this ARC!

I really enjoy reading Sophie Cousens books and this one is no exception in fact I think ‘Is She Really Going Out With Him’ is my favourite book so far, I loved the growing relationship between Anna and Will and raced through this book wanting to find out how it ends and at the same time not wanting it to finish. This is such a heartwarming read with some laugh out loud moments with such likeable characters I would love to read a sequel to this one.
Thank you NetGalley for the Arc in return for my honest review.

Anna has expectantly has found herself a single mum after a painful divorce that she didn’t see coming. Blindsided, it hurts even more than her ex has a new young wife and she is struggling with work and kids on her own. Then she learns her rival at work is angling to take her column, and when there is a merger on the cards and potential job losses she knows she needs to make herself invaluable. Cue her crazy idea to let her kids pick her potential dates.

I really enjoyed this book, I mostly listened to it and the narrator was great. It was fun, cute, well paced, enemies to lovers but also a great representation of the vulnerability of dating in the modern day. I actually loved it and I know my friend @leeandruhh did too!

I’ve found this author is sometimes hit and miss for me but this was fantastic. Funny, sweet, hopeful and a real dose of reality.
