The One Where They Fall in Love
You
never know when love may come knocking…
Hopeless
romantic and romance editor Elle Thompson lives for happy endings—but real-life
love? Not so much. But that doesn’t mean she isn’t thrilled when her best
friend gets engaged. Really. Not jealous at all.
Meanwhile,
Oliver Cole likes things a certain way. Schedules and routines and order. So
when his move back to New York is disrupted with the unwelcome addition of
Thor—the dog his sister adopted for him—he’s less than enthused. Even less
enthused than Oliver? His neighbour, Elle.
When
Elle can’t bear to hear Thor howling all night, the two agree to strike a deal:
she’ll dog-sit while he’s on shift.
But
what starts as a reluctant arrangement soon turns into late-night chats,
sizzling chemistry, and two lonely hearts daring to let each other in.
This was such an uplifting and entertaining rom-com. Elle is wonderfully unhinged in the sweetest way, and her energetic charm pairs beautifully with Oliver’s tightly‑wound personality. Their meet‑cute, complete with Thor’s sad whining and crying was an absolute highlight and instantly hooked me.
The dynamic between Elle and Oliver is irresistible. Their banter feels effortless, their day‑trip adventures are full of warmth and humour, and the gradual shift from friendship to something deeper is handled nicely. Oliver’s internal struggle and slow realisation of his feelings were especially satisfying to watch unfold.
With a lovable dog, supportive friends, and two leads who complement each other perfectly, this is a delightful, funny romance that left me smiling.
