A couple who broke up months ago pretend to still be together for their annual weeklong vacation with their best friends in this glittering and wise new novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Emily Henry.
 
Harriet and Wyn have been the perfect couple since they met in college—they go together like salt and pepper, honey and tea, lobster and rolls. Except, now—for reasons they’re still not discussing—they don’t.
 
They broke up five months ago. And still haven’t told their best friends.
 
Which is how they find themselves sharing a bedroom at the Maine cottage that has been their friend group’s yearly getaway for the last decade. Their annual respite from the world, where for one vibrant, blissful week they leave behind their daily lives; have 

​copious amounts of cheese, wine, and seafood; and soak up the salty coastal air with the people who understand them most.
 
Only this year, Harriet and Wyn are lying through their teeth while trying not to notice how desperately they still want each other. Because the cottage is for sale and this is the last week they’ll all have together in this place. They can’t stand to break their friends’ hearts, and so they’ll play their parts. Harriet will be the driven surgical resident who never starts a fight, and Wyn will be the laid-back charmer who never lets the cracks show. It’s a flawless plan (if you look at it from a great distance and through a pair of sunscreen-smeared sunglasses). After years of being in love, how hard can it be to fake it for one week…in front of those who know you best?

READ MY BOOK REVIEW

Can I just say that this is by far my favorite Emily Henry cover? I mean her other ones are adorable too but this one stands out so much and I am in LOVE! I knew I’d love this one based on the cover and that’s exactly how I felt the whole way through. Happy places is a second chance, exes-to-lovers, romance with a forced proximity and one bed trope. But this book is also MORE than just a romance. This is a book about friendship. It’s a book about chasing your dreams and changing the course of your life. It’s a book that deals with raw and real feelings, and a book that shows us that communication is indeed IMPORTANT in any relationship. Overall, it’s a total must read an I can’t wait to have a physical copy on my shelves so I can re-read it again in the future.
