This book was such a pleasure to read from start to finish—I honestly didn’t feel those 528 pages at all. Lucy Score hit so many of my favorite things and even introduced me to a new favorite trope: grumpy/sunshine. I didn’t know I needed it in my life, but now it’s definitely a comfort zone.

Hazel had me hooked right away. She’s chaotic in the best way, and watching her character grow (while still being her messy, lovable self) was super satisfying.

One of my favorite parts was how the book called out that tired miscommunication trope that so many romances use as the central conflict. Hazel straight-up says she’s not into that, and I was like YES, THANK YOU. It felt so refreshing to read a romance where the drama didn’t come from people just not talking to each other.

The Bishop family was another highlight for me—I loved their dynamic, how close-knit and real they felt. And the way the town came together, especially rallying around Hazel after the breakup with Campbell? Genuinely heartwarming. I got emotional at parts in a way I didn’t expect from such a funny book.

Overall, this story was funny, spicy, sweet, and packed with heart. It had great character development, a town full of charm, and a romance that felt earned. I’ll definitely be reading more Lucy Score—this one was a total win.

"Story of my Life" was so over the top and silly, but I loved it. A fun read after a few heavier books.

Some of my favorite quotes:

“You’re wearing a bathrobe with marinara stains on it in a dark, dirty apartment and drinking screw-top wine out of a vase,”

“I woke up to a flea-carrying woodland monster in my bed because I’m a good friend and went along with your harebrained scheme! The least you can do is get your face bitten off for me!”

“We’re here. Go away.” “Thanks, Hot Dog Fingers,” Zoey said, sliding out of the truck and onto the sidewalk. “I reject that nickname,” he called after her. I grinned at him as I released my seat belt. “Thanks for everything today, Cactus Cam.”

Lucy Score’s small-town romance was cute and had great characters. The characters resembled some of her other characters, but isn't that why we love her books? She has a style that keeps us coming back.
