She has never been lucky in love, and is ready for a fresh start in a new place. Brendon is the founder of OTP a dating app where people find their soul mate. He has been trying to find "the one" for years. Seeing others find love, sometimes from his own matchmaking. When Brendon's sister asks his to let Annie into her apartment the two catch up after years of not seeing each other. What starts as just a way to entertain Annie while she's in two starts to turn into something more. Faced with Annie's move across the ocean, Brendon tries to woo her as a way to keep her in Seattle.
This was a perfectly okay romance story. It however was a disappointment after Written in the Stars which I loved with a passion. I am assuming my dislike slightly came from the hetero couple staring in the book. It also felt a little cheap because I found this book on a list of upcoming LGBT+ romances. And even though Annie is Bi/Pan (it is not really defined in the story) it is not really mentioned in the story and truly felt like it was thrown in to remain "diverse". It also took me forever to read, I read Written in the Stars in a little over a week, this one I just couldn't get into enough to read beyond a chapter or two at a time.
