You, with a View
"Jessica Joyce is a new and forever fave!"--Ali Hazelwood A USA TODAY BESTSELLER!
One of Amazon's Best Romances of July Two high school enemies must reunite for a road trip inspired by their grandparents' broken engagement in this electric debut romance. Noelle Shepard is unemployed, living with her parents, and grieving the loss of her beloved grandmother when she discovers decades-old photos of Gram and a smitten man, tucked alongside a love letter. She creates a TikTok to search for the mystery man, which goes viral, and she's shocked when his grandson responds--a man who happens to be her high school nemesis, Theo Spencer. Noelle refuses to let Theo's annoying accomplishments in adulthood--or his sexy smirk--stand in the way of meeting his grandfather and unlocking the secrets he knew about her gram as a young woman. When she learns that their plans to elope were thwarted, Noelle decides to take the honeymoon road trip they planned but never got to carry out. There's a catch, though: Paul, Theo's grandfather, asks to come with her, and he insists that Theo join them. It'll be a miracle if they make it through the trip without Noelle throwing Theo out of the moving car--or the bed they end up sharing. As the miles tick by, the tension simmers hotter between them...until she discovers that Theo's hiding a secret that could cause their tenuous relationship to end before it can restart.

An expected love story, filled with lots of sex. Which is good if it’s your thing, but it was a bit much for my taste. I adore Noelle and her relationship with her gram and then how she connected with Paul. I enjoyed the banter with her and Theo as well, even knowing they were inevitable.

4.5 stars - Noelle Shepard's grandmother was one of her favorite people in the world, but now she's gone and Noelle is grieving. When looking through boxes of her gram's things, Noelle discovers stacks of long hidden photos and letters from a man who was clearly her first love, and decides she needs to meet this man and learn the whole story. One viral TikTok later and Noelle finds herself embarking on a "honeymoon" road trip with her gram's secret love, Paul, and his grandson, Theo, who just happens to have been Noelle's high-school rival. Two weeks in a car with the infuriating and attractive man who was her nemesis for years - what could go wrong?
I've now learned there's nothing quite like road-trip-level forced proximity, this was an absolute joy to read! Noelle and her grandmother had such a lovely relationship, it was great watching her get to have this one last, new connection with a women she so obviously adored. As for Paul, he was a total sweetheart and I loved to see the interactions between him and Theo because it really did mirror the type of love Noelle and her gram shared. In the end, despite the somber reason the trip came about, it was clear that this was something they all needed. Laughter and tears abound, You, with a View is a beautifully heartwarming tale of love and loss, and I truly cannot wait to see what Jessica Joyce's future brings.
