Synopsis:
Is love on the small screen better than the real thing?
Brynn’s happy ending has gone up in flames. She’s newly divorced and living with a roommate – Josh – to afford her mortgage. At least she’s got Carson’s Cove to binge – her beloved 90s teenage soap.
So when a birthday cake shows up on her and Josh’s doorstep, Brynn makes a wish for her own happily-ever-after.
The next morning, she doesn’t wake up in her apartment. She’s in Carson’s Cove… and Josh is there too. Except they’re not Brynn and Josh; they’re the sweetheart and the bad boy.
Will they stick to the script, or will real love change the story forever?
A young divorcee finds herself in the ideal world of her favourite 90s nostalgia TV show, in this second-chance romantic comedy from the author of This Spells Love.
Review:
I was so charmed by the authors last book, This Spells Love and I was charmed once again with this one, just in a different manner. I’m loving the trend of more romances with magical realism being traditionally published, there’s something so whimsical and fun about them that provides a true escape for me, so I hope this is a trend that continues because it really works for me. If you were a fan of 90s teen soaps/dramas on TV like I was you will enjoy the nostalgia this one brought! The idea that Brynn gets to not only visit the fictional show and town that brought her so much comfort over the years, but that she may be able to change the ending? SO fun and such a cute concept that totally delighted me. There’s nothing here that’s too heavy, it’s light and fun but also has depth in the characters and a solid romance that I was rooting for.
Overall rating: 4/5
